US Grade 5
We call this class The ‘Fun’ in Fundamental English! In this ongoing class, students will meet once a week for a thorough language arts curriculum. 


This class covers the foundation of the English language and serves up a rudimentary understanding of tenses, punctuation, and other dos and don’ts on a platter of fun worksheets and games. This class focuses on increasing their vocabulary libraries and analytical skills within literature. This is where students will learn how to support their answers with quotes and references. Students will start to write and read for purpose.

Suitable for children in grade 5, every week we will be covering the following categories: Literature, Foundational Skills, Reading, Grammar and Writing so that students can easily grasp and retain core principles. This class is sure to keep young learners coming back for more. 

There will be some fun worksheets, discussion, games and lots of visual prompts throughout this interactive class to engage learners!

🌟 At Inspire, we have a unique way of teaching languages! Instead of just memorizing vocabulary lists, we make learning fun with games, role-plays, and group discussions. From day one, students gain confidence and fluency.

📚 We focus on teaching language concepts and how to use them, rather than just memorization. Our classes are interactive, encouraging students to participate actively. Our approach combines Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) and Game-Based Learning (GBL), which ensures that students are engaged and eager to learn.

🎓 Most importantly, we believe learning should be enjoyable! We aim to break away from boring education routines and help students become independent learners. Learning, to us, is an exciting journey that lasts a lifetime.

Our lesson material is prepared by certified French teachers and according to DELF guidelines. 

🤝 Join us today and let the adventure begin! 

Our admin office hours are:
Monday to Friday 9am to 7pm (EST)
We try our best to respond to messages in a timely manner - it may takes us a little longer to reply during the weekend. Thank you for your understanding!
