What are the lessons like?
In the first lesson the child will learn how the lessons works, what is the lesson´s routine, the lessons rules, etc. In a typical lesson we will introduce new vocabulary and grammar with songs, videos, storytelling, games (memory games, hide and seek, traditional board games) etc. We will repeat the vocabulary and grammar each lesson in different formats, to allow the student to learn in an spontaneous way. We work by themes, so every 4 or 5 lessons we change the theme. At the end of each theme, the student will produce a piece of work, like a video, or drawing, read a story to us, create a comic, etc.
How will my child engage in the lessons?
We tailor the lessons to each child interests, for example if a child is a super Harry Potter fun, we will read chapters of his favourite book, even creating Harry Potter characters in cards, to play memory with them, or work on people´s description etc. Smaller children might find very interesting to show us their toys, and their art works. This is just an excellent opportunity to learn new vocabulary. We allow the children to be themselves, and interact in a familiar and safe environment.
For example to work with daily routines, we will ask the children to bring to the class a toothbrush, pyjama, homework, books, bicycle toy, etc, and play a guessing game, answering the question What am I doing now? What are you doing? Etc.
