How Secondary English Online helps your child succeed

Greater fluency in English and confidence in their studies

Secondary English helps your child develop the confidence and communication skills they need to succeed at school and prepare for future opportunities. Through projects inspired by real-life situations, they expand their vocabulary, improve their speaking skills, and learn to communicate with greater accuracy and confidence. The topics also encourage them to explore new perspectives and develop skills that extend well beyond the English classroom.

Interactive group classes – wherever you are

Lessons are taught live by one of our experienced teachers to a group of students of a similar age and English level. Your child will regularly be encouraged to speak, exchange ideas with classmates, and work in pairs or small groups. Presentations, discussions and collaborative projects give them plenty of opportunities to use English in meaningful, engaging situations, while enjoying the convenience of learning from home.

Collaborative online learning

 Even online, your child is part of a genuine learning community. During live lessons, they interact with classmates, work in pairs and small groups, and contribute to collaborative projects. These activities provide frequent opportunities to speak, listen to different viewpoints, and use English for authentic communication. As a result, they build spoken confidence, strengthen their teamwork skills, and become more comfortable expressing themselves in English.

Personalised guidance and support

Our experienced teachers support every student with individual feedback designed to help them improve. Informal assessments and regular discussions help your child understand their progress, recognise their achievements, and identify areas for development. This encourages them to reflect on their learning and gradually become more independent.

Extended learning with the Learning Hub

 Between lessons, your child completes activities on the Learning Hub selected by their teacher to prepare for or reinforce topics covered in class. They can work at their own pace, deepen their understanding, and continue developing their speaking, writing, listening, reading, grammar and vocabulary skills. Articles, videos, podcasts and other digital resources make learning engaging and relevant. A personalised dashboard also allows them to access their activities and track their progress.

A clear picture of your child's progress

Secondary English encourages your child to take ownership of their learning and become increasingly independent.

Regular updates on their learning, together with two progress reports each year, help you keep track of their achievements, progress and areas for improvement. This allows you to discuss what they have been learning and celebrate each milestone together.

Lessons that fit around your family's schedule

 Your child attends one live online group lesson each week from home, with no travel time to a teaching centre. Early evening classes make it easier to fit learning around secondary school. Activities on the Learning Hub can then be completed independently whenever it is most convenient.
