Description
We are a language school for kids of all ages - from 5 to 17. We welcome cultural embassadors of their countries, who will broaden the horizons of our students by sharing with them life experiences and facts about the contries they lived in or visited. In return we offer a real cultural experience with staying in a couple of various Ukrainian families and trying all Ukrainian foods, visiting events and meeting a big number of Ukrainians.
Also, we have developed a cognitive system of teaching English, so, if you wish, you may learn a lot about teaching vocabulary and grammar, try your hand at teaching and enjoy communication with a very motivated team of professionals.
