English Courses for Children at Starters Level | A Strong Beginning with Iran-Australia Language School

Why Is Starters Level the Ideal Starting Point for Children?

The Starters level is the first step in children’s English learning and the most crucial stage for fostering motivation, curiosity, and a lifelong love for language. At this level, children are free from academic pressure, and their minds are like fertile soil, ready to absorb words, sounds, and meanings effortlessly. Instead of being overwhelmed by grammar, they learn through interaction, songs, stories, and visuals. This natural, engaging process makes language a joyful part of their everyday life. While it follows the structure of Cambridge Young Learners, Iran-Australia Language School has localized and enriched the program to suit Iranian children better. A solid beginning at this stage ensures a smooth, confident journey in second language acquisition.

What Skills Are Developed at the Starters Level for Kids?

The Starters course carefully develops all four language skills—listening, speaking, reading, and writing through age-appropriate, engaging activities. Listening is enhanced using songs, chants, and stories. Speaking grows through role-plays, daily expressions, and interactive games. Reading is introduced with colorful books, flashcards, and picture-word matching. Writing begins with tracing letters, drawing simple words, and forming guided short sentences. Children feel no academic pressure; instead, they are immersed in meaningful contexts where English is naturally integrated into play, fun, and discovery. This holistic approach supports emotional connection with language, essential for long-term retention and fluency.

The Role of Parents in Starters Course Success

A strong foundation in children’s English learning at the Starters level doesn’t happen in the classroom alone. Parental involvement plays a pivotal role. A child's brain is like a sponge—what they hear, see, and do at home deeply influences their language learning process. Here are some simple yet powerful ways parents can support their child’s English journey:

• Use English posters, songs, and language toys at home
• Model simple English phrases in everyday routines (e.g., "Let's eat!", "Time for bed!")
• Stay in touch with teachers to follow up on classroom learning
• Provide storybooks, activity sheets, and language-based games
• Encourage real-life usage of English words during playtime or meals
• Avoid comparison and pressure, focus on your child's steady growth
