				LISTEN TO OUR YOUNG LEARNERS IN ACTION At the British Council, we believe in fun activities to ensure motivation is high to help develop team-working and encourage participation in our Young Learners. We talk about a range of topics and share experiences using everyday classroom language to read, listen and respond to stories, poems, songs and chants. This helps them to learn to communicate clearly and effectively in a wide range of spoken and written contexts. Listen as our Young Learners tell their stories.

				LEARNENGLISH FAMILY Getting involved in your child’ learning can have a positive impact on both their attitude and speed at which they learn. When parents help their children outside 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 said: “Parents have six times more impact on the learning of primary age children than teachers do”.
