We plan the classes around the child's age and interests. Your child learns Spanish through games, movement and conversation, so they do not just memorise words — they start to understand and speak.
How classes work
Every class follows a clear plan, so that your child feels calm and knows what comes next: a hello, revision, new words, a game, movement and a hands-on task. The class is in Spanish, and the child does not learn rules by heart — they notice for themselves how to say things correctly. For the youngest children, our course is built as a story with the same characters throughout: your child meets them at the start of the course and solves all kinds of everyday and school tasks together with them.
What your child will learn
The programme for each age is based on the topics of our courses from A1 to B2. For example, at A1 your child first learns to talk about themselves, their family and friends, their home and their day, to say what they like and to understand the teacher's simple requests. Then, at A2, where we study the past tenses, the topics are more about school. With each level, they speak more and more freely. We choose topics and tasks that suit the child's age.
How you follow your child's progress
Once a month, your child does a short test — the youngest children do it with you there. You will see which topics the test checks and how many points your child gets, and we will send you a report: what they can already do on their own and what still needs work. At the end of the course, your child receives an Espanis certificate. This is an internal school document with no official status.
If your child studies Spanish at school
Before the classes start, we look at what your child is studying at school, how many hours of Spanish they have a week and how many children there are in the class. This way, we can take the school programme into account in our classes.
What we need from parents
At the start of the course, you get the programme and your child's workbook, which you will need to print. For younger children, keep pencils, glue and modelling clay close at hand. Clear some space in front of the camera so that your child can move. In the first classes, it is best to stay nearby — without stepping in or translating.
Pace of learning
Children are taught by teachers with a lot of experience, but we should tell you that the younger the child, the slower the progress. Also, if your child has classes because you want them to, and not because they are interested, results come more slowly: the child is not fully involved, and every class becomes a fight for their attention.
Speaking Spanish fluently
It depends on the child's age, how often they have classes and whether they hear Spanish outside class. Children first start to understand, and only then to speak — just as they once learned their first language. With children, we start with single words, then move on to short phrases, full sentences and only then to texts. That is why, in the first months, a child understands much more than they can say. After a few months of regular classes, they can already answer with short phrases and talk about themselves, their family and their favourite things. Speaking freely comes later — after several years of classes.
Parents in the classroom
Yes, but during the class it is important not to distract the child, so it is better to stay where they cannot see you.
