What We Cover in This Course
British English accent training
- “Accent training”- We focus upon providing accent training by native british teachers to help students develop a neutral and/ or British accent. A variety of creative and engaging class activities with a specialised tutor such as group discussions, plays, poetry, and much more are done to engage and train students in prper accent and pronunciation.
- Students will be trained in phonics, an essential skill to ensure successful reading. Students will be instructed and trained to understand the relationship between sounds and spellings, and more importantly, the difference in pronunciation and enunciation of words and phrases. Activities focussed on this skill include storytelling, poetry, and elocution.
Grammar
- Grammar is the foundation of a language and learning the fundamentals of the language is crucial in gaining proficiency in a language. Grammar rules are important for effective communication, such as understanding the formal/ informal, or the use of imperatives and statives in daily communication.
- Command over these fundamentals along with the language skills enable a child to understand the subtle nuances of a language, and we strive to ingrain these fundamentals right from the start.
Vocabulary And Spelling
- Vocabulary is the basis of communication. The larger your vocabulary, the more effective the communication. Along with encouraging students to expand their vocabulary, we stress on learning correct spellings as well.
- In an age of automatic spell-checkers, it is still important to learn correct spelling as very often, meanings of words change due to incorrect spelling, thus leading to miscommunication and misunderstandings.
Reading Comprehension
- Reading comprehension is a key component of our English programme. Reading is a key skill in any language, and it is crucial that students not only learn to read but also to understand what they are reading.
- We provide students with a wide range of age-appropriate reading material such as fiction, nonfiction, poetry, news articles, academic and scientific journal extracts, etc. that educates as well as encourages them to critically read a piece of writing.
Creative Communication And Storytelling Skills
- Children are naturally creative and explorative. Given the right tools and proper guidance, they can learn to hone their skills and develop their creative writing.
- Under creative writing, we introduce our students to different forms of creative writing which gives them a chance to choose the style they are most comfortable with and build up on that style during the course.
- Creative writing requires a certain amount of fluency in the language along with a firm understanding of grammar. However, we do encourage our students to write their best and provide feedback on their work to help them improve with each piece they write.
- We also organise specialised creative writing workshops during the year for students to participate in a more focused session and enhance their writing skills.
Confidence Building
- Confidence stems from knowledge. When a child is aware that they are doing well and are able to converse without much difficulty, their confidence increases, and they are more likely to speak out in public.
- Our classes encourage students to speak and write in English in an environment that is conducive to their growth.
- Along with acquiring a language, children acquire soft skills such as public speaking, presentation, and objectively communicating arguments.
- Children are encouraged to research and analyse information they did not have previously and are taught the correct methods of doing so.
