Programs at TALC are not prescriptions but invitations to our young minds.
While we refer to mainstream academic framework, we don't believe in "following"!
We are an "alternative" learning space because what we really care about is being child-centric.
This means our approach is completely based on the belief that children need to be allowed to learn and progresses at their own pace, without any pressure, prescriptions, comparison or conditions.
Hence, at TALC we handhold children to empower them to be able to understand and master learning, in a method they believe, suits them the best - be it methods like Montessori, Waldorf, Experiential methods, Internships, Outdoor, Rote-learning or a combination of the above! We respect and acknowledge that every child is intelligent to hear and understand themselves and accept our role is to facilitate their journey with trust and love.
