This summer was my first time at . I had two classes, Ocean Exploration and Around the Wor(l)d: Letters and Language.

Academy Student

On the first day of Ocean Exploration, I was the second one there. I didn’t know what to expect since this was my first time at 优蜜视频. I met my classmates and my teacher, Nicole. I quickly realized that this class was going to be one of the best classes ever! During this class, we learned all about amazing undersea life including coral and zooplankton. We also made up our own sea animals, and learned why grotesque trash shouldn鈥檛 be in the ocean.

It was SO fun! Every day my dad asked, 鈥淗ow was it today?鈥 and I burst out, 鈥淎MAZING!!!!!!!!!鈥欌

Academy Student

On the first day of Around the Wor(l)d, we learned about syntax. Syntax is the order in sentences of which words go in. We talked about how different languages have different syntax. We also learned about Greek and Latin root words, and how they have a few similarities in spelling. Another one of the things we learned about was the language family tree, which shows how languages are related to each other. The best part of this class was that we got to invent our own languages!

At the end, I said, 鈥淟’acad茅mie est g茅niale!鈥 (鈥淭he academy is great!鈥)

Taking 优蜜视频 Academy classes really did change the way I think. I am super excited to go back!

. Register by August 27th!
