Тема вебінару: Watch your little stars shine in your English classroom (за підручником “Academy Stars” Starter

Teaching English to five-year-olds can be a unique and rewarding experience. Children at this age are naturally curious and eager to explore the language when presented through engaging, age-appropriate methods. They learn best through active participation and play. The challenge is to spark their interest right at the beginning of the lesson and keep them engaged till the end.

In this practical session, we'll dive into simple, ready-to-use games, activities, and ideas that will make both learning and teaching enjoyable. We’ll discover how storytelling can transport children into new worlds of language, how songs can make vocabulary stick, and how games can turn grammar learning into an adventure. You'll leave with a number of techniques to capture kids’ attention right from the start and keep those little stars shining throughout every English lesson.

Тема вебінару: Growing Minds, Growing Language: Integrating Whole Child Development in Preschool English (за підручником „Mimi’s Wheel”)

Is it a fantasy or a realistic goal to teach preschoolers English effectively and successfully? This session explores how a whole child approach — focusing on emotional, social, cognitive, and physical development — creates the foundation for meaningful and lasting language learning.

Together, we'll look at practical strategies that integrate whole child development principles into your English lessons, making language learning more natural, joyful, and effective. You’ll gain practical ideas to support not just language learning, but confident, well-rounded little learners.
