Learning

Do they really learn?

"Whatever your child learns, they will learn with understanding and with love."

Our three principles

01Understanding, not Memorizingthey understand, so they don't forget easily
02Knowledge into Skillthey can use what they learn
03Competing with Myselfno comparing with others; every day, a step beyond yesterday

"The ear hears first, the mouth speaks next, the hand writes last."

First a child learns to recognise, then to say it correctly, and last to write it.

Learning by doingwherever possible, learning starts with an activity. For example, times tables are understood as repeated addition, never chanted.
Step by stepthe simplest version first; harder only after confidence.
