Inspiring Academic Excellence
in a Dynamic American Educational Program

At TAS, art bridges emotion and thinking for young learners. Through a multi-sensory program, inspiring creative spaces, and supportive teachers, art becomes a daily part of preschool life—helping children express themselves, develop emotional awareness, and explore the world with confidence from an early age.

At TAS, technology is thoughtfully integrated into early childhood learning to support cognitive, language, and emotional development. It’s never overused or a replacement for real interaction – but a guided, balanced tool that enriches your child’s journey of growth.

At TAS, parents don’t have to choose between facilities and academics. Our school offers both: a modern American-standard campus and a holistic early years program combining play-based learning, STEAM, language, and emotional development – ensuring children grow with balance and joy from the very start.

When looking for an international preschool, many parents often find themselves choosing between two options: a school with modern facilities but an unclear curriculum, or one with a strong academic program but less inspiring spaces. So, which should take priority? In reality, the best choice lies in a balance of both and to truly understand, we must first look at the role each plays in a child’s development.

At TAS, the bond between teachers and parents goes beyond daily updates – it's a true partnership rooted in empathy, trust, and shared purpose. Because in early childhood, what matters most isn’t just what a child learns, but how consistently they are loved and guided through every step of their journey.

With only 10–15 students per class, a native lead teacher and a bilingual assistant, TAS ensures personalized attention, timely feedback, and a nurturing learning space where each child is seen, heard, and supported to grow at their own pace – right from the very beginning

At TAS, learning through play is not just a global trend but a daily practice. With thoughtfully designed open spaces, multi-sensory materials, and nurturing teachers, young learners thrive in an engaging international environment that fosters creativity, confidence, and holistic development from the very start.

From 18 months to 5 years old is a golden stage for children to explore their abilities through art, music, movement, and more. At TAS, talent is nurtured naturally through daily experiences — not pressured by competition. Children are free to express emotions, build essential skills, and grow confidence in a warm, inspiring international environment designed just for their age.

Emotional intelligence (EQ) lays the foundation for young children to grow with empathy, confidence, and positive behavior. At TAS, EQ is thoughtfully integrated into daily classroom experiences such as emotional circles, storytelling, and role-play activities — creating a nurturing, safe, and human-centered environment where children can develop naturally and meaningfully.

For children aged 18 months to 3 years, the first day of school can bring tears and anxiety as they separate from their parents.
