FUTURE-PROOF YOUR CHILD

Through our iUnique Curriculum in a Trilingual Environment

iUnique Curriculum – AI, HI, MI

At ChildFirst, we focus on creating a unique three-pronged curriculum comprised of artificial intelligence, human intelligence, and multiple intelligences. Artificial Intelligence (AI) will be the greatest disruptor in your child’s lifetime; your child needs to master AI to avoid being replaced by it. In addition, mastering Human Intelligence (HI) skills such as creativity will be critical. These types of skills, which are not easily replaceable by robots, will be even more highly valued in the future. Finally, we encourage your child to develop Multiple Intelligences (MI) so that your child can find his or her own niche, develop it, gain confidence, and excel in life.

in a Trilingual Environment – English, Chinese, Coding

Learning a language is effortless when young children are immersed in that language environment. ChildFirst is the first trilingual pre-school to provide immersion in the three most important languages around the world in the future: English (half-day immersion daily), Chinese (half-day immersion daily) and Coding (the language for AI and robots). Although AI can translate languages, having experience as a native speaker of English and Chinese with an awareness of these cultures will give your child a distinct advantage. Coding, of course, is surrounded by a culture of technology and innovation.

Beyond ABCs: Future-proof Your Child

Our founder, Dr. Richard Yen, has just written a book titled “Beyond ABCs: Future-Proof Your Child.” In this book, Dr. Yen shares how his extensive background and experience have shaped his educational philosophy, resulting in the innovative ChildFirst trilingual curriculum.

This book provides deeper insights into how our brain works and why early childhood is a critical period for learning, preparing your child not just for formal schooling but for a successful future. You will understand why we emphasise learning technology from a young age. Along the way, you’ll also enjoy some interesting stories that shaped his outlook.
