In 2003, both Brigitte Herz and Julie Reece wanted their kids to begin learning German and Chinese, respectively, at a young age. They looked into teaching the languages themselves and thought about hiring a tutor. However, they felt a classroom setting would be the best way for their children to learn a second language. This is when One World Langauge School was formed. Brigitte and Julie quickly learned that other parents wanted foreign language education for their kids too! Through word-of-mouth, the program grew from 30 students in a small summer school session into a student body of over 250 students at 9 schools as an after-school class activity. They created a one-of-a-kind language curriculum for young children to learn Chinese, French, German and Spanish. 

Recently, we have expanded our offerings as an in-school program. This has allowed us to teach at academic institutions during the school day. We are thrilled to be heading in this direction because we get to teach more children, partner with schools, and improve the community in which we live.

Lastly, parents and schools have a strong desire for their children and students to learn another language beginning at an early age. We are here to help and make this a reality.
