Where? When? For whom?

Next to Römerhof

In August 2023, the club expanded and secured a location at Carmenstrasse 36, featuring the added benefits of a lovely garden and a playground. We are thrilled to welcome children from Ilgen, Bungertwies, Riesbach, Neumünster, Freiestrasse and Zollikon schools.

Everyday 13:30-18:00

The English club is open every day during the week from 13:30 until 18:00. The children can join either for the whole afternoon either for a half afternoon: 13:30-16:00 or 15:30-18:00.

From kindergarten to primary school

The club is open to children from kindergarten to primary school – between four and twelve – who are already fluent in English. Our English teachers offer both group and individual tutoring, as well as organize study and fun activities to enhance their English skills.

 

What is included

Learn to write and read in English

Our program focuses on building strong literacy skills in English. Children engage in interactive storytelling, creative writing, and phonics activities to foster a love for reading and writing. For example, they create their own storybooks, enhancing their language abilities while sparking their imagination.

Multiples activities according to the age

We believe in tailoring activities to suit each child's age group. Younger children enjoy art and craft sessions, while older ones dive into science experiments or join book clubs. For instance, our 'Little Scientists' program introduces young learners to exciting hands-on experiments, nurturing their curiosity and language skills.

Snack and conversation with the teachers

At our club, learning isn't confined to the classroom. During snack time, children engage in casual conversations with our experienced teachers. For example, they might discuss their favorite books, hobbies, or even share stories about their day, creating a comfortable and supportive language-learning atmosphere.

Excursions on Wednesdays

Wednesdays are adventure-filled days for our young explorers. Each week, we embark on exciting excursions that complement classroom learning. From visiting local museums to exploring nature trails, these experiences make learning English meaningful and enjoyable. For example, our trip to the Zurich Zoo allows children to observe animals and practice English vocabulary in a real-world context.

Small groups limited to 8 per teacher

We prioritize individualized attention to ensure every child thrives. Our small class sizes, with a maximum of 8 students per teacher, allow for focused instruction. For instance, during reading sessions, teachers can provide personalized feedback and guidance, accelerating your child's language development.

Only native, qualified and experienced English teachers

Quality education begins with exceptional teachers. Our team comprises native English speakers, all highly qualified and experienced in language instruction. For instance, Emma, our lead teacher, has a Master's in Education and over two decades of teaching experience, ensuring your child receives top-notch language instruction.

Fair and easy-going conditions

Free trial

A trial lesson provides children with the opportunity to experience our club firsthand, giving them a glimpse of what to expect. It also offers parents the chance to see our club in action and get a sense of our environment.

Flexible start

After the trial, based on available openings, the child can start the club immediately, as soon as there is an available place for the desired slot, or enroll for the following year.

Easy cancellation

Attendance at the English club can be canceled at any time with a one-month notice period.

Billed on scheduled lessons

Invoices are based on the scheduled lessons, following the Zürich public schools holidays planning. This guarantees a fair price for everyone: you don't pay on vacations or public holidays.

Low accounting overhead

Invoices are sent twice a year: for the August-December period and for the January-July period. This keeps the number of invoices minimal, while making it easy to use for tax purposes.

Flexible one-offs

You need to move a lesson or to exceptionally add one? Just message us and if there is place, we'll happily accept and confirm.
