Live online classes via Zoom — available anywhere in the world. Intimate groups of 2–4 students with expert bilingual instructors.
We build the foundation for independent reading using the first three stages of the Science of Reading: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, and Sight Words. Through this scientifically-backed approach, children develop accurate pronunciation and the ability to read English readers fluently — with a beautiful, natural accent.
Beyond reading, lessons incorporate English-language songs tied to seasonal events, Mother Goose nursery rhymes, and cultural traditions from the English-speaking world — naturally building the stress-rhythm patterns unique to English that are so difficult to acquire later in life.
It is completely normal for children living abroad to fall behind in Japanese language development. TLC's Japanese classes focus on massive language input — immersing children in Japanese through hand-play songs, seasonal music, riddles, wordplay, and cultural traditions that build Japanese thinking skills naturally.
Japanese language development in early childhood is essential for identity formation in children growing up overseas. For children 6 and above, lessons cover kanji reading and writing, and fluent Japanese reading — the secret to raising a truly balanced bilingual.
Every child is different. Our free consultation helps us understand your child's current level, goals, and learning style — so we can recommend the perfect class from day one.
