Our Very Young Learner courses have been specially developed by the British Council for young Ukrainian children. At the British Council, Very Young Learners are 'immersed' in an English language environment; our courses involve a balance of speaking, listening, reading and writing, which the children experience through a program of fun games and activities that expose them to the language. This helps them learn naturally, at their own pace, and communicate with increasing confidence.
