Message from our Founder and Executive Director:

August 2012

Dear families,

On behalf of our team, welcome to our website!

I founded Be Lingual! in the summer of 2007 to help parents give their children a solid linguistic and cross-cultural foundation necessary for them to thrive in a global 21st century. At Be Lingual!, we believe that giving children the gift of being curious, self-confident, and comfortable in a foreign environment will ultimately give them better chances to succeed in their personal and professional lives as adults.

We accomplish that objective through providing the highest quality language and cross cultural education in a fun, nurturing and culturally rich environment and start at an early age when a child's brain is best at absorbing. We highlight the specific characteristics of each language and culture and include parents at all levels of their children's educational experience, encouraging them to develop their linguistic skills and share prior cross-cultural experiences.

• Consistency is key in early language education. To help parents maintain this consistency, Be Lingual is now switching to a Semester schedule, offering longer enrollment periods in addition to strongly encouraging yearly commitments. We believe a semester-based schedule also makes your life easier by reducing your number of payments. However, if you prefer to spread your payments out over the school year, you can also pay in separate installments.

In conclusion, we welcome you to experience our committment to offering the best language education, and to give your children the gift of a different culture and language, so that they become successful global citizens. We hope that our new web site will be more useful for our current families as well as informative for prospective families .

Best wishes,

Isabelle Bonneau
