Let’s look at why you might want to leave and why you shouldn’t.
#1 Reason: My child can’t make the time because club activities finish late.

1. Why should my child go to Dave and Amy English School? My child has English everyday at school and in cram school.
Our lessons emphasize speaking. Jr. High School and High School Classes at school and cram school often emphasize grammar and vocabulary. (Of course, you will also learn grammar and vocabulary but the main focus of class time is speaking and listening)

1. How are lessons grouped?
For elementary school students, we place students into classes depending on reading level. Why? 40 minutes of the class is reading and speaking in pairs. Students should be similar reading levels to participate fully in class.
Writing is a solitary activity. So it doesn’t matter if there are different writing levels in the same class.

How can Returnees retain English at a high level? and How can students who have never lived abroad become bi-lingual?
At Dave and Amy English School, we have taught a lot of returnees. We try to help returnees keep their fluency, comprehension, reading and writing abilities at a high level, and improve them. But it takes hard work. How do we do this effectively?
