World Language Initiative- MT

Our classes are designed around the dynamic, research-based communicative language teaching approach, which allows you to learn language through exposure to and use of language in a relaxed, authentic environment. This is in contrast to more traditional models, which focus more heavily on grammar and vocabulary lists. As a student in our classes, be prepared to listen, speak, read, write, interact, and practice using the language as you build your skills and grow confidence.

• Class size is limited to 15 students
• Classes are held online via Zoom - your instructor will send you the link, which is also in your confirmation email
• This class will run for 6 weeks, one class per week
• There will be no classes on Presidents' Day (Monday, February 16)
• The class will need a minimum of 7 students to run. If a class does not reach at least 7 sign-ups, the class will be canceled and you will be issued a full refund. You will be notified at least one week before the class start date.
• New in 2026, we are offering two sessions in the Winter/Spring instead of one longer session. To extend your learning through May, sign up for the Spring session of this class here.
• For the class cancellation policy and general refund policy, see below.

Refund Policy: Cancelling your enrollment more than two weeks in advance of the class start date will result in a full refund minus a $25 processing fee. NO REFUNDS will be made less than two weeks before the start of class. If you have any questions about the status of your registration, cancellation, or refund, please reach out to us at info@wlimt.org. 

Makeup Class Policy: If a scheduled class must be canceled due to a coach's absence or other unforeseen circumstances, a makeup class will be provided. The makeup class will be scheduled at a time that best accommodates the majority of students, typically by adding a class at the end of the session. Please note that if you are unable to attend the makeup class, we will not be able to offer a refund for the missed class.
