Milana-Milwaukee Kannada Kali is school run by a group of volunteers passionate about imparting the language of Kannada as an alternative/foreign language. We run the school under the aegis of two non-profit organizations:

Milana Kannada Koota & Kannada Academy

Through Milana, we reach out to all the Kannada speaking families in Greater Milwaukee. While, Kannada Academy has a global network of 40+ Kannada schools and an administrative staff of 50+ volunteers that focus on:

• Continuous review and revision of syllabus

• Build of teaching methods through LMS

• Accreditation of Kannada as a Foreign Language in American schools (this is work in progress)

• Communication

• Instructions on language using visual aids

• Simple instruction that is repeated through illustrations in our books

• Two-way communication between teacher and student in an informal environment.

• Attention is given to students learning through examples, and Q&A during the classes.

• Usage of English to support learning to the students who don't understand Kannada initially.

• Continuous validation of the learning through LMS assignments imparted through Google Classroom.

• Mid-term assessments and final assessment on completion of a level/semester.
