Description
Join me for a fun ongoing English course, perfect for 9-11-year-olds, with an experienced UK teacher, where we will master reading, writing, grammar, and spelling skills through the UK national curriculum goals. Free certificates each term!
This class is perfect for 9-11 year olds, but this is not a strict age limit and other age students are welcome depending on ability.
Beginners will be guided step-by-step, and advanced students are challenged with targeted questions and vocabulary.
Maximum of 6 in a class!
*********************************Typical Class Routine**********************************************
Classes are hosted on zoom or Outschool depending on the numbers.
-Getting to know you game or activity
-A quick and snappy grammar starter
-Introduction to the topic- reading a shared text or a modelled example
-Guided instruction -this is where I explain and show how to complete the activity
-Independent work
-Sharing work and feedback within the class.
-There is always an opportunity for students to finish their work after class and submit for feedback as I wouldn’t want a student to feel rushed or pressured into sharing.
************************************Class Schedule *************************************************
Weekly lessons cover a reading focus and a writing focus. The first lesson of the week is always the reading lesson.
The type of subjects that we will cover are as follows:
Rainforests
Taj Mahal
Greek Myths
Environment
Children and adults are very welcome to suggest topics and areas of interest and I can then fit the curriculum
objectives around them!
