What topics will the class cover?:
Each week, we have a spelling list and have lessons in English and Math. There will be homework for extra math, English, and spelling practice each week. Teachers are available to answer any questions and will give feedback on the homework. 


How is the class structured?:
Our lessons are always engaging because education is more than just academics, it is also about the social interactions you have while learning. Our classes include interactive discussions and we use games and other hands-on activities to engage every child in their learning. All of our classes are taught in a 100% inclusive and child-led environment. Our teachers are always inclusive of every child and adapt their teaching style to keep high levels of engagement and progression.
