1. Make mistakes – A common worry for our students, is making mistakes. However, making mistakes can be a vital study tool and help development. We all learn by making mistakes and then we try not to make the mistake again. When we were children, learning to walk meant falling down and bumping ourselves, until eventually we worked out how to balance ourselves and walk. Learning a language is the same; students make mistakes, the teacher corrects them and we learn from that. Please reassure your child that EF Surabaya Kayun making mistakes is fine, as long as the students learns from this, and that nothing bad is going to happen.
2. Be active – In our daily lives, most of our communication is spoken. Studies have proven that students who are active and communicate, make the fastest and greatest progress. At EF Surabaya Kayun, the focus of our courses is on spoken communication, so for your child to make the most progress possible, it is highly important that they participate in all class activities.
3. Speak English everywhere – It is difficult for students to study English in a non-English speaking country. In an English speaking country you are constantly surrounded by English, from conversations in shops, to signs and television. This leads to the student being immersed in English. In Indonesia, there is not this level of exposure. However, by encouraging your child to always speak English at EF Surabaya Kayun, in and outside the class with his or her friends, we can increase the exposure and repetition required to learn the language faster.

This will help greatly in your child’s development.
