    Why is the Novakid programme so effective?

    One important reason is that we use the immersive approach to language learning. This means that students learn English in much the same way that natives do - through communication with native teachers in a fun virtual classroom. Lessons are engaging, fast-paced and last just 25 minutes, making it easier for children to maintain focus and retain the material. Students look forward to their lessons - each one of which is an exciting quest!

    TPR Method

    Total Physical Response (TPR) means using the whole body when learning. The teacher not only presents language in written or spoken form, but with facial expressions, gestures and even movements of the whole body! This method enables a student to better understand the meaning of what they are being taught and also activates more areas of their brain to facilitate learning. Children are encouraged to repeat and join in with movements and gestures during class, helping them learn the material much faster and more efficiently. Together with the communicative approach, the TPR method gives great, proven results.
