Term 1 includes 24 live classes.

Course work may include:
- Reading words and sentences

- Understanding basic written English
- Building sentences
- Writing simple responses
- Improving spelling awareness
- Learning vocabulary in context

Skills Covered
Reading
Students develop the skills needed to recognize words, understand sentences, and read short English texts.
They practice reading for meaning, not only recognizing individual words.
Writing
Students build confidence writing words, sentences, and simple responses.
Teacher guidance helps students improve accuracy and communicate ideas more clearly.
Vocabulary
Students learn useful English words and practice understanding them in context.
New vocabulary is reinforced through reading, listening, speaking, and writing activities.
Listening
Students practice understanding spoken English and identifying important information.
Listening activities help students connect spoken language with the words they are learning to read and write.
Speaking
Students have opportunities to use English during live lessons.
Speaking practice helps reinforce vocabulary and language patterns while building confidence.
Comprehension
Students practice understanding the meaning of what they read and hear.
This helps them move beyond memorizing individual words toward using English more independently.
