Viva el Español is a non-profit Spanish Language and Culture Center, teaching Spanish to toddlers to adults.

For pre-school and elementary school kids, our curriculum is designed to spark and expand children's interest in Spanish by engaging them in creative activities including music & movement, arts & crafts, interactive games, and literature.

Our methodology includes:

=       Full-immersion approach

=       Multi-sensory, content-based curriculum

=       Learning through fun and creative activities

=       Focus on comprehension and language production early on, as scaffolding to build reading and writing abilities in later grades

=       Resources that can be used to extend learning from classroom to home

=       Optional special events and cultural fieldtrips where language can be used in context

Through our total immersion approach, children learn the Spanish language naturally and easily – as they learned their first language. The immersion approach to teaching a second language maximizes the time students get to practice the language they are learning without being slowed down by having to translate what they hear and speak. 

The lessons are rich and varied, and use a multi-sensory approach to ensure that children absorb and remember the words and phrases they are hearing and using. During each theme, vocabulary and phrases are presented using a variety of visual, auditory, kinesthetic activities – there by appealing to children with different learning styles, and reinforcing through various means the target vocabulary.

Ample opportunities for oral participation and peer interaction are provided.  Classes are structured to make fun and creative activities part of an educational process that targets effective language acquisition. We give them the opportunity to hear, speak, create and move while using Spanish.

– Peter Dewey, Bayview Painting

“I couldn’t have asked for a better resource than the Chamber, as I was establishing my medical practice in Lafayette. AJ, Holly, and Sara were so responsive to my questions and gave me many ideas on networking in the community. They host several events that foster community building. I honestly cannot imagine a more robust, active, and friendly chamber as this. I’m a member for life!”
– Cheruba Prabakar, Lamorinda Gynecology & Surgery

“WE LOVE THE CHAMBER! Batch and Brine has been a member of the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce for almost six years. We value and appreciate the incredible amount of work this organization produces for our community through many events and support for each business. The networking and education of information that’s spilled out weekly for the business community is impressive. They are a helping hand in so many ways for our business community and beyond. We couldn’t be part of this community without being part of the chamber. Lafayette Chamber is one of the best organizations we’ve worked with, so don’t think twice about it, join the Chamber!” – Rolla Ghaben, Batch & Brine
