World Family English empowers children on the journey to English fluency.
Each child who engages with the unique, distinctive language programs of World Family Method benefits from the wholesome, supportive learning environment created by the One World Family community.
About Us
Since its inception in the United States in the 1970’s, World Family English has been dedicated to helping children achieve English fluency.
Initially entering the Japanese market, World Family English later expanded into Taiwan in the early 1990’s, Hong Kong in 1998, and Korea by 2012.
Today, we’re the largest licensing partner for Disney Publishing Worldwide. More than one million children have used Disney World of English (DWE), our flagship children’s English Language Learning system.
Our Culture & Programs
The World Family children and member families are at the center of everything we do.
Disney World of English and its companion proprietary product Play Along! are built on the principles of natural language acquisition. By combining engaging Disney characters with innovative child-centered technology, the journey to fluency is captivating. More than 1,000,000 member children have benefitted from DWE’s carefully crafted learning content, memorable characters, and over 130 professionally composed and orchestrated original songs that fit seamlessly into an engaging program.
Activating and amplifying the effectiveness of our products, the World Family Club currently supports more than 150,000 member families and 240,000 member children through their journey. There’s a real synergy between the natural acquisition approach of our programs and the interactive opportunities interwoven in our Club services.
Wholly-owned by management, employees, key consultants, sales managers, and advisors, our team is made up of a highly enthusiastic cast. In fact, many of our sales and service staff members started as satisfied customers themselves. Along with our publishing, education, and operations teams, we’re all equally dedicated to providing the best possible experience on the path to English fluency.

An Innovative Partnership
World Family English has regularly enhanced and expanded DWE, developing new content and leveraging current technologies to enrich the learning experience.
Throughout our more than 40-year licensing partnership with The Walt Disney Company, we’ve never stopped innovating. Over $10 million has been invested in a nearly 10-year project to completely modernize the DWE and Play Along! programs. Our newest release became available in 2019.
Since 1976, we’ve been empowering children on the journey to fluency through our effective Disney-infused programs and supportive learning community. We’re committed to continuing to grow the One World Family, inspiring all children to achieve their full potential.
