Thu, 25 Jun 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Why Do Parents Need to Learn English too? In my opinion, a parent should learn English too. Learning English is a long trip for every kid.

Wed, 01 Apr 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas How to Teach English as a Foreign Language in Kindergarten? Children learn fast, that is a fact. Learning a language is their natural skill, which they are born with. We all have gone through that process.

Children need to talk to their mothers, fathers and other people who are around them. Speaking is a result of listening and observing – in this case, family members. Kids learn from people in their environment,...  [Read more]
