LANGUAGE ACADEMY

Method

If your child does not attend P'titCREF "ARBAT" but you would like that he or she gets a good head start in terms of language learning, you may enroll them in our Language Academy!

Lessons are organized according to P'titCREF’s unique teaching method, which draws on 16 years of experience in preschool child pedagogy in Russia as this relates to bilinguals and trilinguals.

The main components of the method are:

a game-based learning format

natural language immersion

professional native speaker teachers

small groups

a custom series of textbooks BEABA and AWAY WE GO from CREF Publishing.

Format

Lessons are organized both at the P'titCREF “ARBAT” campus and online, via Zoom, accessible from anywhere in the world.

There are four main lesson formats: "Mother + baby", language courses, conversation club, and tutoring.
