The English Language Program for Young Beginners is designedfor learners that are at the beginning stages of developing English speakingskills. Students, as young as five tonine years old, will benefit from this program as the lessons range in intensity,but begin with learning the English alphabet. In this respect, the program is proper for students that have noknowledge of English to students that have limited knowledge of sounds, letterblends, vocabulary, speaking syntax and reading comprehension. Students will develop reading and speakingskills through engaging, interactive lessons. Students are kept motivated and excited to learn, making this programunique in comparison to others.
Parents will find this program structured around two curriculumscalled, “Reading Eggs” and “Reading Eggspress.” As students move through the curriculum, they are increasing all aspectsof English comprehension and speaking skills with the aid of a native Englishspeaking instructor. During each lesson,students receive one-on-one instruction and are excited to participate in theclass because they are given the opportunity to create a character, playinteractive educational games and create a virtual home. These opportunities are distributed based onperformance and time spent on lessons. This makes our English for Young Learners Program unique. Rather than teach students in a traditionalEnglish setting, the instructor is able to interact with children in a morelively manner, which motivates children to continue studying past each lessontime. The program is structured andcreates a high interest level in English.
The program is structured into four units. Students are able to begin at the unit thatis proper for their ability. Eachstudent beginning the Reading Eggs or Reading Eggspress curriculum is assessedon an individual basis by theirinstructor through the utilization of a short engaging virtual assessment. This ensures a student’s success and aprogram structure that is designed to their individual needs. Throughout the program, the students aregiven short quizzes and tests by the instructor to ensure proper remediationwhen necessary.
The benefits of the curriculums are that students are guidedinto having speech emergence and conversational readiness. Once they have completed the distinguishingsounds portion they are guided towards conversing and reading skills. Students are guided into this transitionalperiod where they are a beginner ready to focus on conversational skills andvocabulary identification.
