Induction training & how to teach English

Completed prior to you starting work with the children, the induction sessions cover basic health and safety policy as well as how to manage different behaviors and integrate English activities into your daily repertoire.

As soon as you join the agency you will be equipped with materials for the children and families you will be working with. We will also continually provide you with ideas for English acquisition activities as well as access to a library of picture books, children’s novels, and learning workbooks.

Le Repertoire has a flexible approach when it comes to English learning and so we encourage you to explore and try different methods (such as the Montessori or the Cambridge methodology) which we will often share on our social media or website blog.

Yoga for Children

Learn how to lead individual children or a small group through meditation, mindfulness, and yoga poses tailored for a younger audience.

Musical Awakening
