"We started the Baby's Best Start course with my baby when she was 11 months old, and since then, my toddler (now 13 months old) is happy and excited every week when it is time to go to our class....
Songs, dances, games and lots of pleasure. Every time there are new experiences that are also repeated and enjoyed at home. I am only sorry we didn't start from an earlier age!"

"My baby Basel and I absolutely love Baby's Best Start, not only because it teaches us English, but because we have met many new friends and enjoy playing with other babies....
There are lots of new and appropriate activities for my son's age. All in all, Basel and I want to thank Helen for this wonderful course."

"Before enrolling Praewa at Helen Doron Early English, I searched doctors' editorial columns and various research papers about children's language development....
I realized that children can learn when they are infants, so I decided to enroll Praewa here because of its English curriculum. Helen Doron's methodology allows their teachers to interact with each child by using creative props. In addition, fun learning activities in class accompanied by repetition and continuous listening at home help Praewa to understand the meanings of different words, pronounce them well and help her pick up the language faster. Praewa's pronunciation is very clear. She usually points to and says what she sees, for example, "bus", and she loves to say "I am Praewa". Parents can be supportive by participating in class and playing with their child while listening to Helen Doron's CDs at home. "

"I would like to share my impressions and opinions about Helen Doron Early English. My son Marko attended the course from 3 - 9 years of age. Through all six years the material and the way it was presented was completely age-appropriate....
The doubt I had about the purpose of such a young start (3 years) for the program was completely gone after the first time we took Marko abroad when he was 5 when he, to our surprise, talked to foreigners in English without fear. From one year to another it was better and better. This is the reason why we enrolled our second child Iva when she was 2 years old and she is attending her second year now. Both children go to the lessons with great pleasure which is another parameter that shows well-organized lessons. I would like to recommend this course to all parents who would like their child to gain knowledge of English in an easy and quick way, and most importantly, to be able to speak without fear."

"I am an English teacher myself and I'm following the early language education and methods with great interest. I participated in the first few lessons when my son started with HDEE, and I sadly had to give up doing that as a mother on a regular basis.....
The enthusiasm and joy that Steffi B. is teaching with, was not only passed on to the children, but also to me. Through a variety of lovely props, our children are able to absorb the English language in a very joyous and natural way. For example: if breakfast is the topic, they sat at a table, set up with all the breakfast food items they were talking about before. I also consider that the learning material, and the HD satchel, is of great value and importance for the children's progress, especially the CD's. They offer the opportunity to review the material at home and it has become a part of our daily routine now. Discovering how much fun it can be, learning foreign languages, becoming familiar with the grammatical structure in a rather unconscious way - I'm sure this builds the base to success in school and life".

"My first thought when Bam started class at Helen Doron Early English is whether this will really work. Then, I discovered that Bam joined all the activities with her friends and teacher....
Sometimes the children seemed uninterested but they all know what the teacher is teaching or would like them to do. Bam really likes her classes here. It is like another school of hers. Bam absorbs English naturally from listening to Helen Doron's CDs at home everyday and learning through activities in class. As a result, Bam loves learning English and has the confidence to speak English as well. She likes to tell what she done the past week to her Helen Doron teacher in English. When she plays, she counts in English every so often. I appreciate Helen Doron teachers. They brilliantly apply psychology to teach children. Bam has learned more vocabulary and her accent has improved from Thai-English accent to become more like a native speaker. Bam's father said that children who understand English do not always speak English like a native speaker and I believe that teachers can be Thai or native speakers as long as they have a good accent. If the teacher is Thai, the children will also learn appropriate Thai culture. "

"I felt very good when I heard my daughter speaking English in Ghana. In Germany, where she learnt at the Helen Doron Early English Centre, she felt very shy and lazy to speak English....
But in Ghana she had no alternative to talk to the people. So she started speaking English, which was really amazing and marvelous. So I would like to take this opportunity to thank Helen Doron and the gang for helping my daughter to speak English. I think they would continue like that. Thank you very much for your cooperation."

""Dear Bettina,
My husband and I are convinced that in the future English will become more and more part of our everyday life. We frequently meet language barriers. In our jobs, holidays or other social contacts a lot of understanding and knowledge gets lost.....
Our children grow up bilingual (German and Italian). For us it is fascinating now to watch them learning English so easily and with the same joy as they learn Italian (their second mother tongue). What is most beautiful is that they are learning through having fun and playing. We are convinced that the Helen Doron Early English method is the best. We have such positive experience with it. Of course it is not only the methodology, but also the teacher. For our children Bettina Wills isn't just a teacher, but also a friend who they greatly admire. We recommend that all parents have their children learn English with Helen Doron Early English."

""Dear Helen Doron,
My son Eyal, who is almost 13 years old today, had studied English 9 years ago with HD method. Although we had used the HD kit according to their instructions, I never felt that he actually internalized many words in English
....
But, when he started studying English at Misgav regional school, I was amazed with his quick progress. During his second year of English, he was second in his class and today he is part of the English native speakers group.
I believe that the seeds that were planted when he was 4 years old, are showing the fruit today. Eyal is able to conduct a conversation at a high level of English. On a visit abroad I realized just how rich his vocabulary is today. Also it's a pleasure to listen to his accent. I find him correcting my accent in English as he says 'it's just too Israeli'.
From the bottom of my heart,"
Eyal's mother,
Simona Convalina, Yuvalim, Israel
