Curriculum and Courses

We recruit great tutors and train them to be exceptional tutors.

Curriculum Framework:
Base→Rise→Path

🔸 Base Stage ( L1 – L2 )

This stage builds a strong foundation in listening and pronunciation, helping students feel confident speaking aloud and accurately imitating sounds and intonation. Show & Tell Jr. is a specially designed introductory presentation-based speaking module for L2 learners, focused on building confidence, voice projection, and basic self-expression.

🔸 Rise Stage ( L3 – L6 )

This stage mirrors the structure of U.S. elementary language arts programs (Reading → Speaking → Project-based application). Creative Craft / Show & Tell / Grammar Start Task-Based Learning principles are integrated to strengthen meaningful language output, collaboration, and early grammatical awareness through hands-on activities and guided expression.

🔸 Path Stage ( L7 – L12 )

At this stage, language learning shifts toward higher-order thinking, academic expression, and structured argumentation. Through a progressive sequence — Public Speaking → Debate → Academic Presentation — students develop the skills needed to transition smoothly into international curricula and academic environments before age 15.
