Foreign Language Introduction Program
The Einaudi Center’s Foreign Language Introduction Program, formerly known as the Afterschool Language and Culture Program, has introduced thousands of children in Upstate New York to world languages and cultures. Volunteers from Cornell and surrounding communities who speak foreign languages provide fun ways for K–12 students to learn about and engage with our increasingly interconnected world.
In past years, program volunteers have taught in Tagalog, Mandarin, Spanish, and Hindi.
The program is managed by the South Asia Program and Southeast Asia Program with Title VI funding from the U.S. Department of Education.
Featured Volunteer: Sahana Natesan ’19
