Elite philosophy

«When dynamic minds converge to explore imagination, the benefits are limitless». — Maxine Greene

We believe that Music, Art and Museum education can be achieved by incorporating language learning into the learning process. Our students learn Arts through singing songs, exploring art and building conversations with the support of experienced native educators. Through our Elite Curriculum, we hope to build an organic learning environment to support our students in order to expand their learning horizon by leveraging our diverse teaching experiences. We also pride ourselves on a results oriented class room setting to ensure the best possible experience for our students.

History

Established in 2012.

How we started:

After years of teaching music, art, dace, theater and other arts subjects with language learning in many countries, we felt very fortunate to to be loved and supported by many students, friends, and families. We decided to start our own school to share our passion with more families and to provide a leading innovative language Immersion Aesthetic Education. Thus, we started TG Elite Learning.
