Through the parent-and-child program, we provide thorough support so that children acquire language smoothly through early learning and expand their future options. Parents can watch their children grow up close, while the whole family learns English and other cultures, broadening their global perspective.

Program courses

Regular one-on-one lessons (including TOEIC)

From everyday conversation to specialized English, knowledgeable Filipino teachers provide one-on-one support tailored to each student’s needs and goals. Close communication between student and teacher makes it easier to deepen understanding in a reassuring environment. Ideal for those seeking efficient, high-quality learning.

Subject lessons (Math, Science, Social Studies)

By studying subjects in English, students deepen their understanding of each field while improving their language skills early. The aim is to acquire specialized vocabulary and develop global thinking.

IELTS & TOEFL preparation (high school students)

IELTS and TOEFL are both recognized by more than 10,000 educational institutions, companies and government agencies in over 140 countries, and are trusted proof of English ability for studying abroad, emigrating or pursuing an international career. As they measure the English skills needed in academic settings, our Filipino teachers support students in improving their language skills, including specialized knowledge.
