What teaching method is used to teach English

to 7-year-olds?

Reading Practice and Vocabulary Expansion

While working on phoneme-grapheme correspondence, students need to develop the skill of blending the sounds they already know into words for reading and establish the habit of applying this skill whenever they encounter new words. This will be supported by practice in reading books consistent with their developing phonic knowledge and skill and their knowledge of common exception words. At the same time, they will hear, share and discuss a wide range of high-quality books to develop a love of reading and broaden their vocabulary.

Writing Skills and Idea Organization

Pupils’ writing during year 1 will generally develop at a slower pace than their reading. This is because they need to encode the sounds they hear in words (spelling skills), develop the physical skill needed for handwriting, and learn how to organise their ideas in writing.

What are the testimonials from other parents?

Gaëlle D.

It was a fantastic year for our daughter.
She was not in the right group level at the beginning of the year, but the school changed her class rapidly.
She has learnt so much ! I’m just impressed by what her teacher has done with the children.
Every week was fun with a lot of projects, songs… Hélène gave so much to them. It was just fabulous to hear every week : “Mum, Wednesday is my favorite day of the week”.

Barbara D.

Very professional teacher (Kaltrina).

Sophia B.

Je suis satisfaite des compétences acquises par mes enfants dans cette école. L’enseignement est motivant et bienveillant, le suivi individualisé.

Simone C.

I love this school. My son is attending the playtime every Wednesday, it is a group of max 10 children.
The teacher prepares loads of different activities and she shares them in Google Drive, so the parents are informed and they can also reproduce the same songs they played at school when they are at home.
My son also attends weekly camps each season, full of different activities indoor and outdoor.
