Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - Pre-Kindergarten
Beginner Level
**This class is for beginner ESL learners only. This class is suitable for children just starting to learn English as a Second Language. They do not need to have prior English knowledge. This class is not suitable for native English speakers**

Learn English through fun activities and games that will help ESL learners grow in confidence and improve their English speaking skills.

Each week, students will be introduced to new vocabulary and have the opportunity to practice their pronunciation, recognition, and using new words in full sentences with given sentence frames.

Students will have the opportunity to learn in a relaxed and playful environment with classes 25minutes long, ideal for young, beginner learners with a short attention span and have little to no prior English knowledge.

Our class structure will follow a similar pattern each week with alternating games to retain students attention. Lessons do not build from week to week, so students can attend at any point during the course. Games may include what's missing, spin the wheel, guess the picture, tic tac toe, stairs, and snap.

An average class will be as follows:
1. Welcome and introduction
2. New vocabulary - single words based on a theme e.g. apple, banana, orange
3. Recognition game
4. Introduce a sentence structure/phrase
5. Opportunity to practice through a second game
6. Review Activity
7. Goodbyes

After class students will receive a vocabulary sheet with the new words and sentences used in class so students have the opportunity to practice at home.

Here is our upcoming schedule:
W/c 14.2: Colours e.g. blue, orange, green. It is blue. It is orange.
W/c 21.2: Fruit e.g. apple, banana, strawberry. It is a red apple. It is a yellow banana.
W/c 28.2: School Bag e.g. bag, book, pen. I have a book. I have a blue pen.
W/c 7.3: Family e.g. Mother, Father, Sister. I have a big sister.

This is a 26-week course focused only on speaking, listening, pronunciation, and new vocabulary. Once all topics have been covered, we will restart back to week one again.

Here are the topics of the course:
1. Colours
2. Fruit
3. School Bag
4. Family
5. Feelings
6. Pets
7. Weather
8. Body
9. Toys
10. Farm Animals
11. Clothes
12. Rooms in your House
13. Zoo Animals
14. Hobbies
15. Sports
16. Transport
17. Dress Up
18. Jobs
19. Places
20. Daily Routine
21. Household Items
22. At the Park
23. Household Chores
24. School Subjects
25. Holidays
26. Food

Once learners are comfortable with basic vocabulary and are able to answer in simple, full sentences they can progress to the Intermediate class or private tutoring. Alternatively, take a look at my twice a week class covering the above topics but with a second class focused on developing reading confidence each week.

Hello, it's lovely to meet you! I'm Catherine, a qualified primary teacher and home educator from the UK. 

I am incredibly passionate about encouraging the next generation to be proactive with conservation and protecting our planet. You'll see many of my classes are themed around my love for animals, endangered species, habitats, and conservation.

Young students care deeply about our world, are enthusiastic and keen to learn about sustaining our planet. My classes are aimed mostly at 4-6 or 5-7-year-olds for this very reason.

As a qualified primary school teacher and ESL teacher, outside of my animal-themed classes, I also offer a range of fun, activity-led classes focused on phonics, book clubs, early math, and ESL.

Outside of teaching, I love nothing more than spending time in nature with my family. I have two children, 6 and 4, whom I home educate with my husband. We spend as much time as possible visiting nature reserves, local wildlife parks, and hiking with our dog. My DSLR camera is always on hand to capture the incredible sights we see, from migrating birds in winter to summer-blooming flowers.

Nature and the world around us is a huge part of our life. With my classes, I help young learners with a passion for our incredible world, by answering their questions, providing cross-curricular activities, and extending their prior knowledge.

My live lessons are often discussion-based within a relaxed and friendly environment where everyone has the opportunity to participate. Flex classes offer learners an opportunity to study the content at a pace or time zone that suits them. Due to them being no live lessons, these classes are jam-packed full of cross-curricular activities for students to enjoy and share with their peers.

Interested in finding out more?! GREAT!

Come along and join one of my classes below. I cannot wait to meet you.

Catherine
