Level: Complete beginners to native English speakers.
Our Shooting Stars are very eager, enthusiastic, busy little students who need a lot of variety and stimulation.
They learn English best through hands-on activities, practical use of vocabulary, productive play and repetition.
We provide them with a fast moving, theme-based rangeof fun lessons that give them a real mini-kindergarten day!
We use a syllabus based loosely on a successful system ofteaching that has proven so popular in our international
school, with more emphasis on English language learning
as a second/foreign language (ESL).
