Summer Speaking courses (6-17 y.o.)

Happy learners make confident speakers! Your child will have lots of time to practise speaking English, having fun learning with classmates of the same age in groups and pairs. The courses are designed specifically for different age groups to ensure kids can progress to reach fluency. Learners will use English in class through fun activities and learn by listening to songs, reading stories, playing games, storytelling and working on class projects with a focus on real-world topics like the natural world and the environment. Our teachers will ensure students will have a great time learning English.

As the lessons of the courses are activity-oriented, students will have lots of time to speak English, develop their communication skills by working on projects in pairs and small teams, build up to a final project at the end of the module that has a real-life outcome, such as a presentation or blog. Varied social and learning forms such as partner work, role-playing or taking part in discussions create a positive learning atmosphere in the classroom. Above all, the course will give them the chance to use the English that they’ve been studying so hard to learn.

These courses focus on speaking the language. The focus on conversation keeps students motivated and actively involved, increases their opportunities for practising the new language and help improve their critical thinking skills, problem-solving skills and greater mental flexibility. These courses combine groupwork on projects with individual activities which will help integrate the language learned in the course.
