CLASS

ESL: Kids’ English Club

Boosted problem-solving skills, improved memory and concentration, enhanced creativity and greater cultural awareness. These are just a few of the many proven benefits of learning a second language as a child. Even more so when that language is the global lingua franca and mastering it is made stimulating and fun.

A third-generation Member, she started working as a Camp Discovery counselor and teaching English at her mother’s My Eigo Club English school while at high school.

STUDENT

Noah Hanawa

“What I like about the class is reading English books and playing puzzle games. My favorite book is Wacky Wednesday [the Dr Seuss classic first published in 1974]. My teacher Nagisa is a lot of fun. The most fun thing about the class is speaking in English with new friends and learning new English words.”
