At Cambridge English For Life (CEFL), we firmly believe in encouraging children to learn correct forms of English from an early age as this will give them a thorough grounding and a strong foundation for their future studies.
To this end, the Cambridge Junior English (JE) course is specifically designed for children who:
- may be attending nursery schools or kindergartens
- may have had some exposure to English
- may have not yet started compulsory schooling
- may not have started to read
- may be absolute beginners
The Junior English course is available at two levels for preschoolers:
The main emphasis of the course is the adaptation of a carefully planned syllabus that encourages effective and affective language learning. The topic areas and activities have been chosen on the basis of children’s development ranging from the familiar (self, home, school) to the outside world.
The syllabus includes:
-
Phonics using a multi-sensory approach to develop reading and writing skills
-
A student-centred approach that encourages active participation in every lesson to develop speaking skills
-
The Total Physical Response (TPR ) approach to develop listening skills
Learners are advised to first take a learning readiness assessment to determine which course is appropriate to their level of English language proficiency. The test can be arranged to be taken at any CEFL Centre.
