Step away from traditional classroom teaching methods into the world of English Ninjas, where every lesson will pique your child’s interest in learning English! Teachers at English Ninjas give each student the opportunity to think critically, ask questions and bounce ideas off their peers. Rather than providing model compositions that take away students’ confidence and opportunities for learning, students get a chance to exercise their imagination to create their own engaging storylines. English Ninjas’ English curriculum not only develops each child’s English language skills but also incorporates elements of current affairs, global issues and popular children’s literature. Their experienced teachers emphasise progression over perfection and celebrate every student’s milestones.

These strategies aim to achieve good learning outcomes and academic success for every student.
