Welcome to Helen Doron Ilsan!
At Helen Doron, we believe kids learn English the same way they learned their first language—through consistent exposure, repetition, and positive reinforcement. Our English as a Foreign Language (EFL) methodology makes language learning feel natural and effortless.
The Helen Doron Method helps children use English in everyday situations, making it part of their world. One of the most powerful aspects of our curriculum is the use of music. Through programs like Multi-Music, we tap into the rhythm and joy of music to strengthen language skills while nurturing creativity and emotional intelligence.
We’re proud to be part of Helen Doron International, a global community built on a love for children’s learning.
