At a time when 31 states have passed “English Only” laws, four pioneering families put their children in public schools where, from the first day of kindergarten, their teachers speak mostly Chinese or Spanish. Speaking in Tongues follows four diverse kids on a journey to become bilingual. This charming story will challenge you to rethink the skills that Americans need in the 21st century.

Hosted By

Lango Brooklyn



Lango Brooklyn is a full-immersion foreign language program that teaches Spanish, French and Mandarin Chinese to young children ages 0-12 using art, dance, movement, music and games. Taught by native speaking teachers, classes are generally 45-minutes in length and offered in small group settings of 5-10 students.

Lango was started by Brooklyn mom Sharon Ng whose dream is to prepare children to be global citizens who are intellectually curious, culturally aware and linguistically capable ALL while having a blast learning another language!
