Courses and Classes
Nubian Moon offers courses and classes on Classical African History and Heritage for school age children.
Nubian Moon's Courses - Overall Vision and Goal
Nubian Moon offers our children capsules of time entrenched in African culture. Classes embody Africa and are offered in the form of a complete school day or a core class; children are culturally immersed – experiencing and retentively learning about African Culture. The curriculum is African centered and students are taught through various creative methods, with significance placed upon detail, imagery and legacy. The overarching goal is to reveal to children a positive personal connection to their bountiful, beautiful, and great African legacy; thus inspiring them to ascribe to their greatness.
