About Us

We are passionate about languages

We understand that the traditions and knowledge of a culture are encoded and transmitted through language, and through the process of teaching language we are preserving a diverse knowledge-base that is invaluable to us and to future generations. We also understand that children need multilingual skills to thrive in the 21st century global marketplace. We support you in this important role you play as language teachers.

"...In understanding and celebrating unity in diversity, lies our best hope for a sustainable future." (Wollock 2001)

     

Innovation is our strength

Journey with Sube

Digital Storytelling

We are dedicated to finding innovative ways to teach languages to children. Sube has evolved from an after-school language program developed in 1996 by a bilingual mother, artist and teacher implementing hands-on methods for engaging kids through art and games, to a complete research-based model for language instruction in diverse classroom environments. We stay up to date on the latest research and make sure our curriculum is aligned to national and international standards.

When you purchase the Sube materials you become part of our Journey with Sube project. We travel the world to find the most amazing teachers and communities dedicated to preserving linguistic and biocultural diversity. A portion of Sube's proceeds are donated to these unique schools and organizations. If you know of someone that you would like to recommend for the Journey with Sube project, please contact us. This section is being developed. Please check back!

We discovered Digital Storytelling as a powerful tool for sharing our language and culture through storytelling. See how this new medium allows us to capture the stories of our elders, record stories in native languages, or to listen to the voices of our youth.
