About the Jazzitup Kids language courses
We offer language courses to children from 4 to 15, all year round in central London and online, teaching kids English through storytelling. We provide an extensive, ever-growing curriculum with accompanying workbooks and creative course materials, created in London.
Our programme is suitable for all levels of English and children learning English as a second or alternative language. Courses can be organized for groups from overseas, for small bespoke private groups and as online tuition, according to individual needs.
Course Options
We offer summer holiday camps all July and August in central London, with either a half day (9.30am-1pm) of a full day (9.30am - 5pm) option.
We offer private holiday courses for groups from September to June.
We offer weekly online lessons for individuals all year round.
Celebration Time!
Over our Summer Camp, to celebrate and share the childrens' achievements, we put on an end of week show/ informal workshop performance for parents and relatives.
Children are all awarded rosettes and certificates.
Course Activities
Our Holiday Camps and private online tuition include story mapping, text comprehension, creative writing, vocabulary-building and grammar activities and public speaking.
Our full day Holiday Camps take the children off-site every afternoon to a workshop / cultural excursion in central London, to use and consolidate the language from the story studied that morning, thus giving an Active Learning Experience.
Course Structure
Our Holiday camps run weekly, Monday to Friday. Each day we offer a new umbrella theme for all groups with different workbooks and stories for each individual group. Mornings are on-site, afternoons are off-site.
Each group is approximately 8-12 children.
Online courses are generally one hour, once a week, with follow-up homework.
Course Content and Age Levels
We have an extensive series of workbooks, each with a unique story. Each age bracket has it's own set and range of workbooks that have their set theme, set of characters, setting and include a story script, a story comprehension and grammar/vocabulary-building activities.
During our holiday camps, we group children according to primarily age and then language level.
Broadly speaking: Orange level: 4-6, Purple level: 7-8, Green level: 9-10, Red level: 10-12, Blue level: 12+
Course Materials
Every day, each child receives a workbook. Every story has a set of puppets which we use with the younger children.
Workbooks, character puppets, Jazzy dolls and large stretches of material are used during lessons. The Jazzitup Kids workbooks serve to document vocabulary, writing, grammar and artwork during the classes and for consolidation at home.
