English Classes For Kids
Introduction to English Classes For Children
Our Junior program for learners aged 5-12 is based on the “Our World” textbook, a six-level primary series from National Geographic Learning. Our program aims to enhance learners’ English language skills through real-world content, interactive digital resources, and a fun, immersive learning experience. These are the core focuses of our English classes for kids:
- Emphasizing on building child’s confidence
- Enhancing speaking fluency
- The program follows the IB Early Years Program (EYP)
- Promotes global awareness and cultural understanding


English Lessons For Children


We also understand that confidence and fluency go hand in hand when it comes to learning English. Our classes for kids are designed to create a supportive environment that nurtures a sense of self-assuredness while focusing on fluency improvement.
They don’t just learn the language – they live it, use it, and love it. We turn English from a subject to study into a means of expression and communication. This vivid, practical experience with the language enables our students to gain a level of comfort and fluency that makes English come alive for them.
How Our English Classes For Children Are Conducted
At ULC, we believe in cultivating a deep and lasting understanding of the English language through our classes for children.
We want your children to improve their English by learning about the world around them. The Our World series lets children learn English using a range of engaging lesson topics that allow for creative expression and teamwork. Students do more than memorise. They create, craft, draw and design. Our older primary learners present and debate.
What Our Children Learn
IB Early Years Program (EYP)
In our English classes for kids at ULC, we blend language skill enhancement with holistic development, in line with the International Baccalaureate (IB) Early Years Program (EYP) framework. This approach transforms English learning from a solitary academic task to an immersive experience that taps into their natural curiosity and learning passion. By aligning with the IB EYP, known for its inquiry-based, student-centered learning, our English classes stimulate critical thinking, broaden worldviews, and bolster communication skills, thereby setting a strong foundation for future academics.
Our World Curriculum From National Geographic
The Our World curriculum covers a wide range of themes and topics. The “Our World” series is a unique resource that encourages learners to explore their curiosity about the world around them, all while enhancing their English language proficiency. It integrates stunning photography from National Geographic, providing children with a window into different cultures, ecosystems, and societies. The following components of language learning are expertly interwoven with the content:
- Reading
- Speaking
- Writing
- Listening
Parental Involvement
In our English classes for kids at ULC, we believe that parental involvement plays a crucial role in a child’s learning journey.
To keep parents informed about their child’s progress, we send weekly updates via the ClassDojo App. Our year-end presentations also serve as an interactive platform for parents to engage with their child’s learning. As children showcase their language skills and share what they’ve learned, parents get a firsthand understanding of their progress, making them an active participant in their child’s English language learning journey.
