Second Languages – A Global Advantage for Middle Schoolers

At TAS, Middle School students are encouraged to learn a second language—such as French, Chinese, or Korean—alongside strong English proficiency, giving them an edge in today’s global world.

More Than One Language, More Than One World

In a globally connected era, speaking just one language is no longer enough. Multilingual thinking sharpens communication, enhances empathy, and unlocks opportunities across cultures. At TAS, students in Grades 6–8 are introduced to a second language in addition to their academic English foundation—broadening both minds and horizons.

‍

Immersive and Integrated Language Learning

TAS designs its second-language program to be both immersive and practical. Languages are not isolated from the main curriculum, but thoughtfully integrated into students' weekly schedules. Whether it’s French, Chinese, or Korean, students learn through interactive activities, group projects, films, and cultural events—making the process natural and engaging.

This is not “learning to test.” It’s learning to use—communicating with real people, understanding tone and context, and appreciating the cultural mindset that shapes every language. TAS sees language as a lived experience—not just grammar on a page.

A Head Start for IB, AP, and International Universities

Knowing more than one language is a powerful asset for students transitioning into high school and beyond. For those pursuing the IB or AP programs, or applying to global universities, multilingualism signals cultural intelligence, adaptability, and curiosity—traits that top institutions value highly.

Plus, learning a new language builds awareness of how language works—helping students master their native tongue and English more effectively, too. It’s a virtuous cycle of growth.

At TAS, students don’t learn second languages to score points—they learn to connect. With knowledge. With people. With the world. And that connection becomes a compass for their academic and personal journey.
