„I wish to build a better world, in which communication is no longer a barrier and the awareness of children and parents of what is happening around them constantly grows”
Małgorzata Śmigielska
NatureEnglish was born from passion to teaching English to children and the need of building the healthy lifestyle and sensitivity to the world surrounding us. What also contributed to its creation, is the experience that we have been collecting from 2010 by teaching English to students at various age. At the beginning of 2013, we decided to go for an expedition and look for new methods, forms and inspiration for teaching which has been coming to us from different parts of the world. Years of working with children on various language projects in European countries contributed to the creation of NatureEnglish – innovative method using universal, natural and effective methods in language teaching from the first year of life.
„Children are like flower Seeds in the beautiful garden called Life’”
NatureEnglish children are also such Seeds, who need care to release their innate potential and develop natural capabilities of foreign language acquisition. If we want the Seeds to develop, they need to be regularly watered – not only with new knowledge and enriching experiences – but also with unconditional love and respect to the surrounding world. We take care of them in accordance with nature, smuggling English in ordinary, every-day situations, immersing them in the language while using their attentiveness and imagination in looking at and understanding the world – from the first year of life.
„When children encounter strong emotions, it is our duty to teach them how to manage them – we need to help them organize the inner noise in peace”.
I have always been fascinated with children – their curiosity of the world and attentiveness in every situation. During my work of many years, while traveling and reflecting I have concluded that these little beings often feel lost in the world full of diverse stimuli, where the surroundings change rapidly and which is noisy and colourful. Effectively, by being ‘over-stimulated’ children become distracted, nervous and frequently suffer from lack of concentration. In NatureEnglish world we wish to direct children’s attention to the inside, remind them how beautiful and important nature and openness to what is happening around us are in our lives. The best way to an honest smile and re-charging our inner reservoir of power is through contact with nature, and therefore Mother Nature became the element of all our characters’ stories.
In NatureEnglish, we aim to use the innate capabilities and potential of our children. Infinite creativity, fertile imagination, lack of embarrassment and natural need for communication of our Seeds let the accordingly led classes to help our Students undertake an active and fruitful play with English.
In NatureEnglish, we make everything for children coming to classes to feel as if they were setting off into an unknown, friendly – for kids as well as for parents – world. This natural approach and intercourse with the language turn learning into a great fun, and make our courses suitable not only for small children, but also act as a pleasant asylum for their parents. Early learning is a straight way to master any foreign language and surely a better start into the future life for our children.
Very important skill influencing the success of our children is understanding the spoken language while listening. The sooner a child gets familiar with the foreign speech, the sooner it will understand the teacher effortlessly, and the better it will influence its further learning. Understanding the spoken language, pronunciation, grammatical structures and vocabulary learning will not cause them any problems, provided that they experience the language exposure from the early childhood
The smaller the Seeds, the more flexible and not yet finally shaped vocal apparatus, which allows younger children to tackle sounds, intonation and accent more easily. Consequently, children having early exposure to the foreign language, have better pronunciation and, most likely, much better listening skills and ability to understand the spoken language.
Plasticity of the brain and speech organs in case of younger children make their acquisition of language easy, fast and effective (just like in case of their native language) – starting from experimental sounds and melodies of the different language through individual words and more complex phrases – to full fluency and general development of communication skills and success in mastering the language in the future.
Simultaneous native and foreign language learning positively influences the asymmetric development of two hemispheres of the brain. In NatureEnglish we support the rise of creativeness and artistic skills of the right hemisphere as well as the logical thinking and language skills of the left hemisphere of the brain.
A child with no inhibitions (against foreign vocabulary) nor embarrassment (in case they make a mistake or do not understand something) will use the language freely in practise.
A series of multi-sensor courses during which the fascinating adventures of NatureEnglish characters intertwine with our everyday live – thanks to which the foreign language is being acquired by our students in a natural way. Innovative materials were created and especially adjusted to every age group in NatureBabies courses.
We lead children into the world of English, helping them to get to know its sounds and intonation as well as understanding the basic instructions – it all begins in the emotionally stimulating environment, encouraging interaction from the first day of the course. At this stage, children start producing their first words in English as well as in their native language, frequently at the same time.
Robbie is 1 year old. He’s a friendly, little bunny, who accompanies our Little Ones all year long. By having constant fun, singing and moving the body, Robbie tells the stories of his and his peers world and everyday life, such as changing diapers or daily bathing. In addition, together with his friends – other animals – Robbie invites us to learn through adventures accompanied by beautiful nature.
Rosie is an older bunny, who is already two years old. She lives in her squeaky clean and perfectly organized tree house and she loves taking care of her garden full of fresh fruits and veggies. She is always accompanied by Teddy – her beloved cuddly toy. This course introduces and encourages Little Ones to more independent life without diapers and dummies, as Rosie loves to play an adult and always tells Teddy not to act like a child, teaching us how “big” girls and boys like her behave
Johnny is a very lively boy who discovers the world every day and learns about nature and its inhabitants. The whole course is divided into four stories showing the boy’s trips and travels to various places (trip to the sea, walk to the park, garden games and a picnic), where his daily experiences are very similar to the preferences and skills developed among pre-schoolers, such as playing in the yard and in the garden, birthday celebration or acts of independence (going to the toilet, dressing, eating, etc.).
During courses in NatureKids, we create an environment in which children get to know the world by means of creative play, see themselves as the integral part of nature and its elements. Children learn to intuitively grasp the meaning of the told stories, teacher’s speech and different structures related to the everyday life situations in the natural context. NatureKids is an ‘elemental’ course, full of movement and experiments, which allows kids to work off their energy while immersing in English in the friendly atmosphere. The courses support the development of basic skills of a child, its imagination, manual functions as well as enrich its personality by inculcating golden rules of co-existence in unity with nature.
Thousands of light years away from here lies a galaxy in which SpaceStars entertain, teach and shine. They differ not only in colours and emotions they shine from afar, but also in magical powers. This course introduces NatureKids not only to the solid fundamentals of the spoken language, but it also develops this skill by helping children recognize the most important emotions and teaching integral principles of group interaction. And the main character Uni? Uni is a completely different story…
Welcome to the magical and mysterious universe in which young Fairies (Moonie and Ray) not only prepare kids to go to school, but also, together with others, get them to know the world by observing its four elements and experience its life by learning English. Together with Moonie&Ray, children improve their spoken language skills, as well as begin to individually perform tasks and create handicrafts that develop their manual and creative skills… in English.
Greta is a young, brave and very curious reporter who travels the world on her flying mat. Through her stories, she introduces students to the world of colourful nature, diverse cultures and interesting people, while developing the skill of mindfulness by focusing on six basic human senses. Health and Ecology are some of her passions, that she talks about and shares with friends from around the world. By supporting the spontaneous language production in the right context, Greta provides a solid foundation for further development of the spoken language.
A course which main aim is a natural communication in English as well as development of attentiveness and further shaping of concentration, memory, as well as creativity in children. During the year our little actors absorb structures and consolidate vocabulary related to various topics – during Theatre&Mindfulness classes they finally have a chance to use the language in the full form of expression.
During the classes we play and go into different roles by acting them out in English as well as learn the conscious, full of curiosity and openness experiencing of the moment, i.e. Mindfulness. The classes allow to recognise, understand and release emotions in us, and the process is full of music, singing, art and kinetic and developmental play in English.
NatureEnglish provides not only weekly language classes – we also teach English through theatre, by creating an ideal context for collective fun and empowering interaction, enabling real contact with English language!
NatureTheatre provides the incentives necessary to absorb the optimal amount of knowledge in the atmosphere full of surprises. In the magical world of NatureTheatre, children learn difficult things in an easy and natural way.
