For about 20 years The Family Foundation School has been offering Spanish as the one and only foreign language. Beginning in January, a first year Russian course will be offered as well. Natalya Kuchukov, student advisor and native of Russia, will be teaching the class.
This is Kuchukov’s first classroom teaching assignment, so she has been working with other teachers to come up with a lesson plan, and developing her own exciting teaching style. She plans to teach about Russian culture as well as the language.
The class has various eligibility requirements. Students must already have two years in a foreign language class or not have any other language credits. The class will also be open to new students.
FFS students are looking forward to the start of the class. It will give them an option to choose what type of language they would like to take and also give them the opportunity to learn about other cultures.
