NEW French Immersion Preschool in Carroll Gardens

Posted by Olivia Ramsey on November 2, 2016 at 2:04pm

Bonjour à tous!

Smith St reet Wo rkshop, a comprehensive bilingual learning center in Brooklyn, is moving into a larger space in the summer of 2017 and opening a licensed French Immersion Preschool Program in Carroll Gardens. After years of dreaming about it, and with a successful beginning to our playgroup this year, we will continue the momentum and open spots to more children in the fall of 2017 in our beautiful, brand new space on Henry Street. In partnership with CottageClass, we are now accepting applications for the 2017-2018 school year.

We will also have space for more French art & music classes, academic tutoring, and will continue to grow our test-prep programs. We hope to be a one-stop-shop for children's needs throughout their academic career here in NYC.

Our first information session is this Thursday, 11/3, at 7pm at our 581 Henry Street location. RSVP to manisha@cottageclass.com if you will be able to join us.

Smith Street Workshop - A New Tutoring and Language Center in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn

Posted by Olivia Ramsey on February 6, 2015 at 12:11pm

I am thrilled to announce the launch of Smith Street Workshop!

www.smithstreetworkshop.com

Two years ago I left a teaching position at PS 58's dual language program and started a small tutoring business out of my home. It has since expanded into Smith Street Workshop in order to meet the growing need for academic support and enrichment for kids in this French/American neighborhood.

We offer individual or group tutoring in all subject areas as well as many language courses for French learners of all levels and ages. Our teachers are unbelievably talented bilingual educators with an incredible passion for the French language and culture.

A très bientôt, j'espère!
