Class: Kids International Class Name: Ryohei Age: 2 / Starting age: 1 Duration: 12 months (Ryohei's older brother started Kitty Club when he was 2 and half.) It was his first time to be away from his parents, and he wasn't talking yet. At around 3 and half years old, we traveled overseas. He would say, "Pink grapes please!" and "Thank you!!" while we were abroad. I was so surprised! I was really shocked that my kids did this by themselves, without any help. My younger son started Kitty Club from about 1 year old, around the time he learned to walk. Now, my younger son has progressed at English even faster than my older son! His listening skills have surpassed his brother’s. They really enjoy singing the "ABC Song" and "5 Little Monkeys" together. Mom's Voice 3: "They were so kind and loving!" Class: Kids International Class Name: Ryota Age: 2 Starting age: 2 Duration: 2 months ・Why is your child in an English class? My child often plays with children who are half Japanese, and I wanted there to be no language barrier between him and his friends. I wanted my son to have the opportunity to learn English, because I didn't. I hope that he can have a lot of fun learning English. ・Kitty Club Advantages Throughout the 2 hour lesson, it's non-stop fun and education! There's no time wasted, and the kids are constantly doing something. The native and Japanese teachers are a great duo, making the class evenly balanced. ・Progress At home, he often sings English songs he has learned in class.Before that, he only sang Christmas songs all year round! When he comes home after class, he always tells me how much fun he had, and how much he enjoyed it. Even after the first trial lesson, when we returned home he tried to put his shoes on himself. At first it was hard to leave him because he would constantly cry. However, after a few lessons he'd smile and wave at me saying "Mama, bye-bye!" I was relieved because I knew that eventually he would enjoy the class. Soon we switched him from diapers to underwear and he felt like a big boy. He used to cry for hours at home. Now he's really comfortable going to class and has a lot of fun. I'm really glad he's enjoying it. ・Advice for prospective mothers The Kids International Class is not killing only 2 birds with one stone, but 3!!! He really gained a lot more interest in English since there were other kids around him doing the same thing. It also gives us mom's a nice 2 hour break. After class, he always ran out with a big smile and is so happy to see me. I'm happy to see that he enjoyed his lesson. When a student cries, the teacher really comforts the child and also knows when to leave them alone. Even when kids are crying or screaming, the Native teacher would focus on teaching. They were so nice and caring. It's great!! |
