At Key Babel Institute, we aim to bring language to our students in a more meaningful way. Combining the Natural Approach language learning method with elements of Montessori and Reggio Emilia education practices, we believe that students will be able to not only grasp a language, but also express their very being with it.
"Language shapes the way we think, and determines what we can think about."
