The arithmetic of talk time
In a group class of six, a child speaks for roughly a sixth of the lesson at best — realistically less, because the teacher is also talking. One-to-one, they speak for most of it.
Over a year that gap compounds into something very visible. Speaking is a skill rather than a body of knowledge: it improves with production, not with exposure. This is the clearest argument for one-to-one at any age.
The confidence problem
Most children who "cannot speak English" can, in fact, produce more than they show. What stops them is the risk of being wrong in front of other children. Remove the audience and a surprising amount of language turns out to be already there.
Our teachers correct by recasting: the child says something imperfect, the teacher repeats it correctly as part of the conversation, and the lesson moves on. The child hears the right form without the interruption of being corrected.
What speaking practice actually involves
Warm-up conversation
Every lesson opens with easy talk, so speaking starts before the child has time to get self-conscious about it.
Role-play and scenarios
Ordering food, asking directions, describing a picture. Concrete situations produce more language than abstract prompts.
Extended answers
Moving beyond yes and no. Giving a reason, then a second one — the skill most speaking exams actually test.
Pronunciation
An AI coach scores individual words and plays the correct sound back, so your child can practise alone between lessons without needing you to judge it.
Between lessons
Speaking needs frequency more than duration. Ten minutes of talking most days beats an hour once a week. The pronunciation practice in your child's dashboard is designed for exactly that, and needs no supervision from you.

Questions parents ask
My child is too shy to speak. Will this work?
Shy children are the strongest case for one-to-one. Most of the fear is about other children hearing a mistake. With one teacher and no audience, most children start talking within a lesson or two.
How is this different from a group speaking class?
Talk time. In a group of six, your child speaks for a fraction of the lesson. One-to-one, they speak for most of it, and speaking improves mainly through speaking.
Do you correct every mistake?
No. Constant correction makes children stop talking. Teachers recast — repeating the sentence correctly as part of the conversation — so the right form is heard without the flow breaking.
Can my child practise speaking between lessons?
Yes. The dashboard includes pronunciation practice that scores words and plays back the correct sound, so your child can work alone without needing you to assess it.
What age can speaking lessons start?
From 4. Early lessons are mostly songs, games and single words, which is exactly the right form of speaking practice at that age.
How much do speaking classes cost?
$8 per 25-minute lesson for 1–3 a week, or $7 each for 4 or more a week. The first class is free.
