Language Stars, Chicago

Since opening its doors in 1998, Language Stars has introduced more than 30,000 children to foreign languages with small-group classes and full-immersion activities. Through a selective process, Language Stars recruits ambitious teachers from more than 20 countries who share a common goal of revolutionizing how and when American children learn foreign languages. Parents and Tots Classes are available for children between 1–3 years old, and Kids Only classes are available for children 3-5, 5-8, and 8-12 years old. Absorbent little minds soak up Spanish, Mandarin, French, Italian, German, or Arabic with the help of their FunImmersion approach, learning naturally through games, songs, activities and art projects.
