Welcome to Helen Doron International!
Helen Doron International began with a powerful idea from my mother: that kids learn best when they’re happy, curious, and having fun. Decades later, I’m proud to be building on her legacy. Our method uses games, stories, songs, and constant encouragement to immerse children in English. It’s learning by doing—and it works because it’s built on love and positivity. Our small class sizes help us give each child the care and support they need.
Music is a huge part of what we do—and a big part of my own journey. I’ve been lucky enough to contribute original songs to our programs, and I truly believe it’s one of the most effective ways to help children connect with language.
Benaya Doron, CEO of Helen Doron International
