Getting involved in your child’s learning can have a positive impact upon both their attitude and the speed at which they learn. When parents help their children outside of the classroom, there are real benefits for children’s achievement inside the classroom.
Jim Knight, the UK’s Minister of State for Schools and Learners: ‘Parents have six times more impact on the learning of primary age children than teachers do’. You can take some simple steps to encourage your child and build their confidence in using English.
British Council educational experts have developed new LearnEnglish Family products and services in order to support parents. We hope you enjoy using these products with your child. Our LearnEnglish Family range of products includes:
Our free LearnEnglish Parents website provides learning materials, advice and guidance.
Our free LearnEnglish Kids website is for children who are learning English. Find games, songs, stories and lots of activities and learn English too.
