About the Language Workshop for Children:

Photo of Mandarin Chinese Classes for Kids in New York CityFrançois Thibaut, Founder and Director of the Language Workshop for Children, pioneered his program's distinctive Thibaut Technique in 1973. His method combines carefully structured curriculum and a child's innate love of play. LWFC structured playgroups let parents capture the window of opportunity years when children possess their greatest capacity to absorb and retain language.

Qualified & Experienced Instructors:
Each LWFC teacher is personally trained and supervised by Mr. Thibaut to use his educationally effective technique. Children's minds are engaged in animated classes that systematically use original LWFC songs, games, time-tested visual aids and lots more.

Whether it's language immersion preschool, after-school lessons, school-break programs, toddler classes, baby education or summer day camp, the subtle details of the LWFC’s celebrated Thibaut Technique® and the quality of their colorful and professional take-home materials is what makes the difference.
