Language Workshop For Children, New York:
Since 1973, the internationally-recognized Language Workshop for Children in New York has been offering stimulating language lessons for babies, toddlers and elementary grades.

Our Success:

Photo of Italian classes for kids in New York CityAfter teaching French to high school students in France and at a college in New York City, in the early 1970’s François Thibaut began working with children. He was so impressed with the ease with which youngsters learn language that he soon began focusing on developing the right technique to blend a child’s unique emotions, perceptions and development with methods to teach language.

Since then François Thibaut and his Language Workshop for Children continues to be recognized as the pioneer of early language education. Thibaut is the author of numerous articles on the subject of children’s language acquisition. François Thibaut is also the producer of the Professor Toto Language Education Series, winner of the I-Parenting, Parents Choice, Family Choice, NAPPA, Homeschool.com and Creative Child awards.

Teaching Methods:

Just because a program uses foreign songs and games doesn't mean kids are learning. The difference is in the method and the materials. Each LWFC teacher is personally trained and supervised by Mr. Thibaut to use his educationally effective technique, proven since 1973. Children's minds are engaged in animated classes that systematically use original LWFC songs, games, time-tested visual aids, and lots more.

François Thibaut works with professional composers to develop the award-winning vocabulary-building songs produced by The Language Workshop®. These happy songs allow a child to learn a language's distinct sounds and grammar, teach relevant vocabulary, and give kids an easy way to practice their new language.

Qualified & Experienced Instructors:

LWFC teachers are native-fluent, selected for the skill with which they speak their language and for their enthusiasm with children. Each teacher is trained to use the acclaimed Thibaut Technique.

Every teacher is personally supervised by Francois Thibaut, the LWFC’s Director and Anne-Marie Raboud, Head Teacher of the Language Workshop and Curriculum specialist. This way, we maintain the quality of the LWFC’s classes and help gain valuable feedback from parents and our students.
