Activities are for building understanding in a more active way using a range of auditory, kinaesthetic and visual learning styles. 

Scaffolding to support so the children build the skills with less and less adult support until they learn them independently .

Tutoring: Yes, we plan lessons to the level of the child.

Groups: Our groups are all fun and activity based. The children’s levels are of no consequence as the objective for the groups is communication. We want children to start speaking as this is the biggest problem they face with a new language.

They are more likely to start using English naturally through activity and play based learning, together.
