    What are English lessons for children?

    English lessons for children are individual classes in which a child picks up the language through play, audio, reading and creative tasks rather than by memorising rules. The programme is built around the child’s age, level and interests after a first consultation lesson. Every lesson lasts 60 minutes, is taught one-to-one, and ends with a small piece of homework that is reviewed together.

    How online lessons work

    Who are these lessons for?

    Preschool children

    A first meeting with the language: the alphabet, first words and simple phrases through play, audio and colouring, based on the ABC book and the Little Panda Tiki story.

    Primary school students

    Reading, speaking and vocabulary by topic: countries, house, character, daily life and celebrations, using the “I can speak English 1 and 2” workbooks.

    Teenagers

    Support with school English, breaking the speaking barrier and exam preparation, in a format that fits a busy school week.

    How the lessons work

    Play and creativity

    Creative tasks, colouring and speaking games hold a child’s attention and make new words stick naturally.

    Audio in every lesson

    The activity books come with recorded audio, so the child hears correct pronunciation and gets used to real English speech.

    Author-made materials

    Lessons follow the workbooks Anna wrote herself — the materials are included in the lesson price.

    Speaking from day one

    The main goal is for the child to speak: lessons are full of speaking practice and homework is reviewed together.

    Benefits for children

    • The child starts speaking English instead of only learning rules
    • Correct pronunciation thanks to the audio materials
    • Confidence and no fear of mistakes — there are no grades in the lesson
    • A growing vocabulary around familiar topics: house, family, celebrations, countries
    • Reading skills: from the alphabet to first words and short stories
    • Support with school English and exam preparation for teenagers
    • An individual pace: the programme adapts to the child, not the other way round
