Vocabulary and Speaking Class for ESL Beginners
What's included
1 live meeting
25 mins in-class hours per weekClass Experience
This conversation class is an ideal introduction to speaking English for ESL beginners. If your child only knows their ABCs or a handful of English words, then this course will help them develop a good foundation of English vocabulary. Each week, students will cover vocabulary related to a topic. Students will be introduced to the topic of the week and new vocabulary words. During the session, students will be given tasks to say, recognize, repeat, and read new words and sentence frames. For example, in lesson one, students cover colours. 6 colours are introduced at the beginning of the class with a review game. Students are then given a worksheet task to colour each colour of the rainbow as we sing the colours of the rainbow song together. After this, a sentence frame and example are provided e.g. What colour is it? It is red. Students will be asked to initially repeat after the teacher, and are then encouraged to ask and answer questions with their peers. At the end of the session, students will view basic sentences with the missing word and a picture e.g. a picture of a banana and the sentence It is a ……. Banana. Students must select from the given choices what is the correct colour. A final activity is given to help students review what they have learnt in the class. Students are provided with vocabulary and any worksheet activities prior to the start of the lesson each week. This course provides new material each week for 24 weeks and will then rotate back to week 1. After students have completed the beginner's course, they can move on to the intermediate version which expands upon the beginner's course and provides more challenging vocabulary. Here are the 26 topics covered in the beginner's 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.

Hello,
I’m Catherine, the owner and founder of theOET. We focus on supporting students between 3-12years of age specialising in content that is accessible to ESL learners.
We aim to connect learners around the world through English with hands-on, educational virtual lessons. Our core lessons focus on offering story-based and cross-curricular content to not only instil a love for learning but also reading from a young age.
TheOET offers a vast range of programs which include:
*Developing core English skills such as phonics and early reading, reading and comprehension, vocabulary and speaking, or grammar and writing practice.
*Interest-led sessions that are cross-curricular such as book clubs, discussion and debates, animal conservation, journaling, and STEAM.
*Our core private 1v1/1v2 sessions where theOET all began, providing story-based learning to help students progress with all areas of their English as well as grow in confidence.
All of our teachers are British teachers in the UK #ukteacher. Our teachers are highly experienced with both face-to-face and online teaching experience. They each hold a degree in a range of subjects and hold an ESL qualification such as TEFL, TESOL, or CELTA.
Our teachers each have a very calm and friendly persona, ensuring that your child feels comfortable participating, leading to increased engagement, which of course, helps your child progress even further.
Each of our teachers brings something unique to our company, whether it’s their love for animals, reading, or planning amazing content for your child.
We are so excited to meet your child and help them improve their English, but also enjoy their learning experience with us.

POLICIES
Please read through these policies carefully relating to our online classes.
1. Class Recordings
We only share class recordings in the classroom with our students for our 1v1 private lessons. We do not share class recordings in the classroom if it is a group class. This is to protect and safeguard our students who have attended the lesson. If you have been unable to attend your booked lesson due to an emergency, please contact us via the messenger system on Outschool.
2. Refunds
Please refer to the refund policies listed for each class. We do not offer refunds for missed classes unless there has been an emergency, which of course we will work with you to find an alternative session for your child. If you have missed a class outside of the above reason stated, you may still contact us to try and transfer your learner to another section during the same week or following week. However, this is only available if there is space in one of our other class sections.
3. Late Arrival to Class
Please arrive to class on time. Late entry into the classroom is extremely disruptive to all other learners, and your own child also. If you are more than 10-minutes late to class, the teacher may have locked the classroom for safety reasons and you may not be able to enter the class.
4. Sibling Discounts
We know that the pennies can be tight when booking classes for siblings so we do offer a sibling discount to help out. This offer only applies to siblings who are enrolled in the same class. Please get in touch for more details on our sibling discount.
