Michuchutren Spanish Immersion Academia Program

Saturdays
9 a.m. to 12 p.m., Sept. 2022 - June 2023
For children 5 to 12 years old
Basic knowledge of the language needed

The Michuchutren Academy is created for a community concerned with promoting bilingualism and respect for diversity by teaching Latin American language and culture.

Our purpose is to create a space for all families with Latino and Hispanic roots, where love for their language and hereditary roots are fostered. Children will learn to love and respect who they are and their multiculturalism.

A center for families who, although they do not have Latino roots, want their children to grow up with the opportunity to speak the third most spoken language in the world and the second most spoken in the United States, Spanish. This also gives them the opportunity to understand the different Latino cultures and promote respect for diversity.

  • Basic knowledge of the language needed: Children should understand and have previous exposure to the language. A simple interview will be conducted before the beginning of classes.
  • Professional Native Spanish teachers: All classrooms will have a ratio of 10 kids per teacher, 20 kids per classroom max.
  • Multi-age approach: The classrooms are divided by similar language level and not by age, but all activities are created to promote collaboration and age-appropriate challenges.
  • Experiential learning: The program is designed as an experiential learning experience where reading comprehension, writing skills, grammar, and proper communication will be incorporated.

At Tekkers Lab, we believe the best way to grow as a player is to have fun while learning the game. Our afterschool soccer program is designed for students in Kindergarten through 6th grade and focuses on three key areas: fun, fundamentals, and friendship.

Each session blends age-appropriate skill development with engaging games and activities that keep kids excited to play. Players will build confidence as they learn dribbling, passing, shooting, and teamwork—all while being encouraged to express creativity on the field.

Beyond soccer skills, our program emphasizes sportsmanship, collaboration, and making lasting connections with teammates. Whether your child is new to soccer or already loves the game, Tekkers Lab creates a positive, supportive environment where every player feels included and motivated to grow.

Our goal is simple: help kids fall in love with soccer, develop strong fundamentals, and make friends along the way.
