About the School
This academy in Bangbae-dong, Seocho-gu has taught kindergarten and elementary students since 1997.

Teachers lead a kindergarten homeroom and teach some elementary classes in the afternoon. A prepared curriculum and lesson plans are provided, with room to add songs, roleplay and art activities. Teachers track student progress and receive one week of initial training.
