English for students (11-12 years)

About course

In the online course, young learners aged 11-12 do not learn English by memorising grammar and vocabulary. We believe that learning by exploring is much more effective. Through learning about and discussing inspiring content, young learners acquire language skills easily and with pleasure. In the course we therefore use the proven CLIL method (Content and Language Integrated Learning), where young learners learn a foreign language through interesting topics from different areas – nature, technology, science. They will develop a varied vocabulary and the ability to communicate on a wide range of topics without fear of making mistakes. Lessons are dedicated to improving all language skills – reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Packed with inspiring and interesting topics, the lessons will motivate students, laying the foundations for good study habits that they will use in their further education. They will develop skills such as the ability to argue, debate and think critically. They will love English, which is the most important prerequisite for improving their English. And in lessons, thanks to the Task-based Learning method of project-based learning, we also lay a good foundation for students’ ability to work in teams.

We divide students into groups depending on their language ability and level (Elementary-Pre-Intermediate-Intermediate). We will arrange the grouping at the first lesson, each student will be placed in a way that fits the level of the course. In this course, we use CLIL World Natural & Social Sciences 3, CLIL World Natural & Social Sciences 4, or CLIL World Natural & Social Sciences 5 textbooks, chosen specifically with the needs of the level group in mind by our tutors.

Who is the course for

For all pupils aged 11 and 12 who are not satisfied with their school English and would like to work on it through a different approach, where they develop all their language skills - reading, writing, speaking and listening. They are also interested in acquiring other skills that will help them throughout their years of education.
