Our History and Mission

WorldSpeak full-immersed French, Spanish, Chinese and Russian preschools for kids focuses on a child’s unique “window of opportunity” to absorb a new language naturally.

Children have great time in WorldSpeak School. They are exposed to a second language 100% of the time through music, games, and arts. They have fun, make friends and at the same time they learn how to speak in another language. Greetings, colors, numbers, parts of the body, shapes, seasons, days of the week, most common expressions and much more. All the vocabulary is introduced through games and play!

Since the school was open in 2001 more then 2000 students took WorldSpeak classes in our studio and preschool locations as well as on school grounds in Los Angeles, Malibu and South Bay.

Our History and Mission

WorldSpeak™ is now highly established school, featured in “In Style” magazine, “LA Family=94 magazine, “LA Parents” magazine, CityBaby LA book, LILA Guide, and other publications. WorldSpeakTM provides programs for children in a second language acquisition during the window of opportunity for language learning, during their early years of life.

The idea of raising bilingual children is appealing for more and more families these days, and growing up with more than one language has many advantages in today’s World. There are many reasons for a child to learn new languages. Some parents are interested in preparing their children for life in today=92s global economy where it is important to know more than one language. For others it is wonderful intellectual stimulation that learning a language provides. But the most important thing of all is the fact that learning other languages makes children grow up respecting different cultures and people around them, makes them kind to others and interested in different cultures and customs.
