In today’s global community, English language skills are vital to succeed and the earlier you start to learn, the greater your chances of success. English for kids has never been more important.
At EV360 Language centre our course is designed to help your child to improve their English, think independently and work collaboratively. Our fun, communicative classes will increase your child’s confidence in using English both inside and outside the class. Students’ skills are trained in a live communication with native speakers. The main teaching tool is a virtual classroom which turns a lesson into an exciting quest!
Our Teacher
Our native English teachers are experienced in teaching young learners English that is fun and useful to them. This makes learning English a fun and stimulating experience, designed to ensure that what your child learns will stay with them for life
Our teachers are also experienced in teaching children online over teaching platform, The teachers tailor the classes to each unique child’s interest so the children get to talk about what they love. The classes can be about football, pets, boy bands, whatever it takes to get them speaking in English.
Our Programs and Methodology
1. Programs and Levels
EV360 program is built in accordance with the A1 and A2 levels of the European CEFR standard, which corresponds to the Cambridge English YLE Starters, Movers and Flyers tests. At a trial class, teachers determine the level of English and give recommendations for further educational process. If a student progresses faster, they can be moved to the next level.
Cambridge training tests at EV360 allow us to not only objectively assess children’s knowledge but also introduce them to the format of international exams.
Methodology
Young learners are far better equipped to acquire languages than older learners. Indeed, acquisition is the only sustainable path by which very young learners can learn any language.
Young children learn their own language by listening to their parents and being exposed to language throughout the day. Research has shown that children of parents that talk as they go about their daily activities are exposed to 1000-2000 words every hour. This isn’t always practical for second language learning, so we have concentrated the language into interesting topics.
At this stage grammatical structures and lexical sets are not essential to learning English. Teachers raining down English language as a parent talks to a child in their native language is far more effective. Language used will be clear, age appropriate, simple and related to the topic/theme.
Language is presented in themes that help concentrate the language and are of interest to young learners. Rather than being language focused, they are interest based; including topics such as dinosaurs, bears, parties, playing, and space. Such topics are enjoyable for young learners and encourage them to speak
When using Total physical response (TPR) method, a teacher not only shows slides but performs the material with gestures, facial expressions and movements. Children are happy to repeat movements after teachers and learn the material much faster and more efficiently.
Together with the communicative approach, TPR method gives good results. We see that after a month of regular lessons even children who have not studied English before, begin to speak.
The children’s lessons are bright, colourful fun and the classes move quickly to keep the children focused and the teachers are animated and cheerful. The children learn new vocabulary and grammar through speaking
We play charades…we ask the student to mime an animal or the teacher mimes and the student guesses! The students learn verbs, animals, and nouns this way. Most students take online ESL classes in their own houses, meaning they have all their toys in grabbing distance. The teacher may do a scavenger hunt with the student so be aware that your child may run to her/his room and grab something
