Welcome to The I Noble Hanam!
We focus on helping young learners grow through creativity, play, and hands-on English classes.

We believe that learning deepens when children are genuinely interested, and we strive to create an environment that encourages exploration, discovery, and play.

Our Curriculum and Programs
The I-Noble curriculum draws from Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, utilizing modern American textbooks aligned with Common Core State Standards (CCSS). We encourage creativity through play-based learning, offering activities such as library classes, project-based learning, and exciting quarterly field trips. As our students grow, we gradually introduce more structured educational content to match their development.
