A. Why start learning English from the age of 5?
At this age, children's brain plasticity allows them to absorb a new language naturally, intuitively and without apprehension.
Early English learning makes it possible to:
- Develop phonetic ease: Acquire a natural accent and an excellent ear for the sounds of the language.
- Stimulating cultural openness: Discovering the world and other cultures from an early age.
- Strengthen cognitive abilities: Develop memory, concentration and mental flexibility.
A. A dynamic, fun and interactive method
Our English program is designed to make learning lively and challenging through activities tailored to each level:
- In the Elementary Cycle (1st and 2nd primary): Immersion through play, nursery rhymes, songs, everyday vocabulary (colors, numbers, family, animals) and simple oral instructions.
- In the Middle Cycle (3rd and 4th primary): Vocabulary enrichment, simple sentence structures, role plays, first dialogues and introduction to short reading.
- At the Higher Cycle (5th and 6th primary): Consolidation of grammatical bases, guided oral expression, writing short texts and discovery of English culture.
B. A caring learning environment
Supervised by qualified and passionate teachers, our students learn to communicate in English with confidence and pleasure in a warm and encouraging atmosphere.
By offering them the keys to bilingualism from primary school, Académie La Pépinière actively prepares each student to become an accomplished citizen of the world.
