Why we teach languages:

Foreign language study enhances listening skills and memory.

Increase skills like problem-solving and dealing with abstract concepts.

Foreign languages provide a competitive edge in career choices. Four out of five new jobs in the US are created as a result of foreign trade.

Opportunities in government, business, medicine, law, technology, military, industry, marketing, etc.

Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States; approximately  406 million people speak Spanish as a native language. Spanish is the most popular second language that is learned in the United States. We are proud to offer Spanish at all of our Cultured Kids Club locations. Our Spanish teachers have ties to Spain, Columbia, and Mexico.

French is one of the six official languages of the United Nations and is spoken on every continent. It is estimated to have 110 million native speakers and 190 million more second-language speakers. Estimates in 2013 suggest that French speakers will reach 1 billion by the year 2060.  Our French teachers have ties to France, Canada, and Belgium.
