This innovative and interactive program, developed by a certified teacher and in accordance with the Québec Education Program, allows children to expand on concepts learnt during the school year and to develop basic skills in English as a second language. This English program focuses primarily on oral practice and the incorporation of notions taught such as grammar, vocabulary and reading lessons. Students will participate in interactive games both in and outside of the classroom in order to perfect the English language.

A placement test is used to form two groups (beginners and intermediates - this program is not intended for advanced or bilingual participants), which allows the teacher to adapt his or her teaching content in taking into account the needs and skills of children. At the end of the session, students will create a showcase portfolio to demonstrate what they have learnt, enjoyed etc. This portfolio as well as an evaluation grid will be useful to show parents and track student progress in the future.
