ONLINE KINDERCLUB
About
ONLINE Kinderclub is the first German online after-school club which caters for complete language beginners. Our aim is to introduce fun and interactive German classes to primary school children from the age of 4 to 11 years.
Children will learn their essential first vocabulary and phrases through games, songs and other fun activities. Each term will focus on one or two topics of the primary school language curriculum. We will learn how to introduce each other in German, do numbers and counting, colours, animals, hobbies, foods, everything about school, and talk about our homes and family.
Our 40 minute online lessons will take place on a weekly basis during term time and are taught by experienced native German teachers who carry a recent DBS check. Class sizes are kept small with a maximum of 6 students per class . This will ensure that every child will get the individual attention they require.
The ONLINE Kinderclub is a great way to introduce your child to a foreign language and sets the foundation of a positive attitude to language learning for senior school and beyond. Students can continue their language journey with us and even enrol in our German GCSE and A-Level classes later on, or take a telc German exam.
