Course Description

Our pre-school courses nurture a child’s inborn curiosity and excitement in learning. Children would gradually develop their abilities and skills in phonics, reading and writing, alongside a blooming creativity and imagination. What our aim is they are not limited to what they learn from the booklets, but they are also inspired to learn and explore by their self-interest. Our 6-level-course covers gradually from motor skill training, alphabets learning, words blending to independent reading and writing. Let us prepare them at this early stage, in order to let them shine through primary school, secondary school and for life.

Books we use in our Pre-School English programme
Our exciting range of books starts with engaging, letter-focused early readers (focused on alphabet learning, simple sentences for learning sight words and blending cvc words) and advance to books which help develop reading comprehension skills (favourites include the Oxford Reading Tree series, and lots of tales of adventures, famous fables, and daily experiences as well as poetry).

Testimonials

The course materials fit Bernice’s level very well and I can see improvements after each lesson. Her reading skill has improved a lot. She is able to recognise a number of sight words which are provided on her notes. These sight words help her to read and write simple sentences, so she has found reading books more fun and interesting.

Reading aloud in class helps her to build her confidence through poems and stories. Also, the class has strengthened her phonics skills. She is now able to read by combining the letter sounds instead of by memorizing words. The i-Learner teachers are patient and caring, and their lessons are fun!

i-Learner Studio的教學模式是以我所見最為創新而有效的。
一般中心都只會教幼兒學習一些基礎生詞和拼音，但其實對於幼兒階段的孩子來說，他們的適應能力特別強，i-Learner的導師便大膽地、也罕有地以閱讀為本教授幼兒，除了幫助他們認字，更讓他們對句子、文章和結構有基礎概念，教學不致那麼死板。透過這樣的學習，孩子能從小培養出閱讀興趣和理解能力，我和很多家長都十分讚賞和認同。
小朋友的學習材料都由導師親自製作，內容豐富有趣而具啟發性，涵蓋很多知識。導師也能因應每個小朋友的程度和學習需要調整教學內容，讓他們的學習成效更顯著。
Aydan在這裡學習得很快樂，而且表現一直有進步，因此我很樂意推介其他家長也讓小朋友到i-Learner Studio學習呢！

Megan在i-Learner上了大半年的幼兒課程。女兒她上每一節課都很投入，也很喜歡老師和她說故事。看見女兒從早期未能認字、只懂用圖畫表達想法，到現在拼寫生字時開始懂得運用基本的拼音技巧，這一點點的進步，真的令我覺得很欣慰。真的很感謝i-Learner老師的用心教導!

我的兒子Angus在i-Learner上了一年幼兒課程。每次下課後，他的臉上總是掛著愉快的笑容。Angus很喜歡上Ms Anna的課，他尤其喜歡playtime環節，Ms Anna會讓他充當小廚師，寓學習於遊戲之中。看見兒子每次下課後都會興高采烈地和我分享課堂內容，我真的很放心繼續讓兒子在i-Learner學習。
