The focus in young children’s classes is on developing listening and speaking skills. This is achieved through the medium of play, songs and stories. Classes are divided by age into 6 grades (0~1, 1~2 etc). The very youngest children attend with a parent.
Our primary school children follow a 4-skill, grammar-based course, with the main focus on developing confidence in speaking English. Classes are divided by level into 6 grades.
