interactive CD programmes and a creative “Arts in English” programme.
Each ILA Jumpstart programme consists of 148 hours of English instruction in two parts, each 74 hours in duration.

As this age is so important for developing a native like accent students in these classes will spend time working on pronunciation skills. This will be done through games, competitions, drills and activities. We want our students to complete our courses not only with the ability to communicate in English but to do so with an accent that resembles a native English speaker.

Each class will be directed by a native English speaking instructor and be supported by two bi-lingual Vietnamese teaching assistants. Students not only have access to a native speaker but also have the support of a Vietnamese speaking teacher to provide them with any further support or guidance.

Students who complete the three levels of the programme will have had 444 hours of English tuition with a native speaker, and be able to function in many settings and situations. This will give them the knowledge, skill and confidence to go on and complete the rest of ILA’s Juniors Programmes.

Students will learn English through:

• Songs and activities
• Games
• Role-plays
• Team orientated activities
• Discussions
• Mingling activities
• Brainstorming sessions
• Use of multi media facilities
• Art and craft
• Computing in English
  
  Students who complete any of the three levels in the Jumpstart Programme, and are eligible for our Juniors programme may then go on to a suitable level within the Juniors programme.

Every class has a native English instructor and a Vietnamese bi-lingual teaching assistant. Children not only have a teacher that can model a native accent but they also have the security of an instructor who can communicate in both languages if the need arises for further explanation of terms or situations. By utilizing this style of teaching we ensure that our students understand the content of the course and can readily access a native speaker to model language from.

ILA instructors not only provide interesting, effective and enjoyable lessons but also provide countless activities and tasks to ensure that our students develop their fluency in English during class time. Tasks that allow our students English talk time are the norm for all classes and our teachers are adept in stimulating even the most reserved of children to communicate in English. As our classes are designed to have our students talking, the improvement of fluency at the end of the course is one of our goals.

ILA understands that parents have invested considerable time and money into the education of their children. We here at ILA take our responsibilities extremely seriously and are in constant touch with parents and concerned parties. Contact is initiated and maintained through our teaching assistants who are in class at all times and, as part of their role, serve as a communicator between parents and the native teacher as well as the administrators of the department.

Every month parents receive a detailed assessment of their child’s performance in the form of individualized comments written by both the native instructor as well as the teaching assistant.

Parents can follow the progress of their child throughout the course and be kept up to date with any news related to their child’s learning.
