[quote=Anonymous]hello,
Beginning in the fall when schools start up again (Fairfax County) schedule, there is The First Korean Methodist Church Korean school[i] on 2730 Centreville Road (571) 643-0800 ask for Korean Ministry pastor's wife, Herndon (across from Open Door Church - one of the biggest Korean churches in the area).  It is run by rotating group of volunteers who are truly dedicated.  It's not a for profit thing so be patient in getting info.  They begin from ages 3-4 I believe (more like 4 but if you're child is mature enough [potty-trained and independent, and can follow direction], they may make an exception.  I will be starting my 4 yr. old there this fall.  It's once a week on friday nights from 6:30PM-8:50PM.  It's great because the teachers are all moms and they split up the evening with first half being language learning and the next half, whatever the student or parent chooses as an extracurricular activity, such as music, taekwondo, art, origami/balloon design, etc.  In between the two sessions, they feed the kids a good hearty snack/late dinner (you can let them know if you're child has allergies).  The staff is wonderful and I've been sending my oldest for 2-3 years now.  The kids love it.  Small cozy groups where teachers and kids get to know each other well.  Once during the year they have a "Korean festival" where the kids experience purchasing Korean snacks and knick-knacks with play Korean money the teachers give them.  At the end of the year there is an end of the year show by the kids and awards ceremony (where everyone is given an award).  It's about fellowship among those wishing their children to learn Korean language.  The pace is slow so beginners to advanced can always catch up.  Used to send my kid to Open Door Korean school but their program is very intense and fast.  Unless you are working with them every week and sitting with them for a few hours a week, they will fall behind.  More for the kids who have some basic comprehension. Theirs is a few hours long starting every Saturday morning.  There is a charge for both Korean schools.  I believe it cost us around $250-$300 for the entire year which includes EVERYTHING - books, materials, snacks...[/quote]
