MLC is located in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina and has been teaching and loving children in the area for over 20 years.
The child learns most easily in the years before age 6, and has the most to learn.
Our program provides hands-on experiential materials designed to allow self-teaching at the childs own rate of development and interest level.
Every challenge a child meets at this point will be a step on the path of learning.
We aim to provide positive experience which reinforces a child's natural curiosity, determination and enthusiam.
