Every child learns differently. That’s why we created flexible programs designed to meet your family’s needs—whether you want live support, self-paced practice, or at-home story adventures.

Why Parents & Teachers Love Our Books

Kids ask to read them again and again → learning happens naturally.

Audio support makes it easier for non-fluent parents to teach at home.

2025 Juliana Russell-17.heic
This has been such an amazing class for my son to learn Japanese. The story based learning is really engaging and helps solidify what is being taught. He has learned words, phrases, pronunciation and grammar by interlacing them with characters and illustration. The teacher has also made the learning experience very enjoyable but also makes sure that the students are pronouncing the words properly. She also challenges the students, further solidifying what they are learning. I would 100% recommend this class and we will be signing up for future classes.
