Our Values
We do what we believe
To utilize the language
We firmly believe that learning a foreign language is not only learning the vocabulary and grammar, but also obtaining the ability to apply it in different types of situations, inclusive of business, academic, or daily life occasions. Learning a new language is more than acquiring a new ability. It is a key to a brand new lifestyle, a step to more business opportunities, and a bridge between you and a whole new field of knowledge.
To acquire the culture
We are convinced that language is the epitome of a culture. To learn a new language is not just learning the language itself, but also the history, the culture, the philosophy, the mindset behind it. Using a foreign language is more than putting language knowledge into practice. It is also implementing a brand-new way of thinking as well.
To light up life
We understand that learning a foreign language can be challenging but the process of learning a new language is both stimulating, inspiring and fun. For people who need a new glint of life, language learning can be fulfilling.
