English and French: The Foundation of Bilingualism

- Enhanced creativity and memory through simultaneous learning of both languages
This strong foundation facilitates the learning of additional languages and prepares children to follow international programs. To see how bilingualism fosters curiosity and confidence, consult How an International School Paris Stimulates Students’ Curiosity and Confidence
