Beginner Level
Learn English with the Let’s Go ESL Curriculum.

Let’s Go is an eight-level course designed for children learning English for the first time.

Let’s Go emphasizes communication within a carefully controlled grammatical syllabus. Beginning with the first lesson, students are provided with a variety of activities that focus on interactive communication. The activities gradually increase in difficulty. Students are regularly presented with new vocabulary and structures so that they have adequate language to communicate with at each new level.

📕 The Let’s Begin series is for students with no formal English instruction. 

Let’s begin 1 is pre-reading level for young students who have never had formal instruction in English. Students learn to recognize capital letters, lowercase letters, and the initial letter sounds. Let’s begin one focuses on the development of basic oral language through simple functional dialogue and question and answer patterns. Vocabulary is developed in two ways. Students learn words that reinforce the letter sounds in the ‘Let’s learn’ alphabet lesson, and words that relate to a specific topic in the ‘let’s talk’ topic lesson. Language structures covered include the simple present tense of the verb to be singular and plural forms of nouns action verbs like touch run walk and jump and functional expressions like hello and good morning. Topics covered include the numbers one through 10, colors, shapes, animals, toys, and parts of the body.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Kourtney. I have a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice/Sociology. I began working on my Master's degree in Social Work when I realized my desire was to teach. 

I am a homeschooling mother and I have been working with children for over 16 years. I ran in-home childcare center before I decided to teach full-time online. For 6 years I have been teaching online as an ESL (English as a second language) teacher as well. I've taught children as young as 3 through adult learners in an online environment. I have also taught in all different subjects: math, reading, science, grammar, phonics, etc.

I have always loved reading, english and language arts growing up. They continue to bring me joy and excitement as I am able to inspire the same love and joy in my own daughter each and every day. I look forward to planning various classes where I can teach learners in these subject areas in a fun and engaging way that will instill in them a love for learning.

I love teaching children because it amazes me to watch them learn and catch on quickly. I have a lot of patience while at the same time give off enough encouragement to keep each learner motivated and that will show in each of my classes.

I appreciate you taking the time to read my teaching profile and I look forward to seeing your child in my classes.
