About Us

Welcome to Plum in Jamwon, Seocho district, Seoul!

Since 1998, our FasTracKids programs in centers and schools around the world have been providing children with unique educational experiences to thrive. We created our programs because we believe there is a way to teach children differently by engaging them in the way they learn naturally. We focus on young learners because early childhood is the most critical time period in a child’s life when they develop their learning and thinking skills as well as build their emotional and social intelligence. All children deserve the opportunity to develop their potential for a successful future.

 

Programs

 

Our programs stimulate the child’s natural curiosity through the FasTrack Advantages: skills for critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration, and confidence. We combine an engaging curriculum with a collaborative and fun-based environment to create a dynamic 21st-century learner. Our goals are for our students to learn HOW to think, not WHAT to think while creating a lifelong love of learning.
