Little Language Learners

About Us

WHAT WE DO

We offer fun, creative, interactive language classes to little learners. These classes allow children to learn language through play, crafts, songs, dance & games.

WHY WE DO IT

Children who grow up learning multiple languages from a young age are proven to be more creative and have better problem solving and critical thinking skills. Children's brains are prime to process language at an amazing rate so we take advantage and expose them to language in a way that will ensure they will want to be life long learners.  Although some believe that learning a second language can hinder a child's ability to perfect their first, we know that it does the exact opposite!  Learning a second language only enhances a child's first language. Children who begin learning a foreign language before the age of 7 or 8 are even able to speak it with a perfect accent!
