Message from the Founder


You are only a kid once. Childhood is a time of wonder, joy, and innocence. I built Duangtawan with the intention of trying to foster that sense of innocence, unburdened by pressures of the future. We all want the best possible future for our children, but this is no excuse to put the pressure to succeed upon them before they are ready. Children should be able to enjoy childhood to the fullest extent possible with love and care in safe environment.

Even though kids are growing up in differently, the foundation is the same. Kids are exploring, creating, and dreaming big. They deserve to laugh and play and play more. We promise that your children will well be taken care of at Duangtawan. Children require time to explore, manipulate and experiment on their own so they can make sense of the world around them. At Duangtawan, our curriculum is focused on hands-on learning, harnessing the natural curiosity of children to foster a deep understanding of concepts. Children will develop their knowledge and skill through daily activities. For instance, we create flowers garlands to teach fine motor skills, bicycles and free play to teach gross motor skills. We use gardening to teach science concepts, singing and stories to develop strong language skills, and blocks and patterns to develop basic math skill.

The graduates of our academy are nurtured by the love and commitment of our teachers and parents to become moral young people with a strong sense of community and enrich live.

I look forward to welcoming parents and your children to our great school.

Sincerely

Donsak Tsailexthim
