English Classes for Kids in Muscat

English classes for kids in Muscat

English is one of the four CURIOOkids tracks, alongside entrepreneurship, technology and creative design. The programme develops listening, speaking, reading and writing, together with vocabulary and language awareness, and treats every child as an active learner who talks, discusses and uses the language in their own way. Classes run in small groups (6 students on average), so every child gets a real chance to speak.

This course is taught as part of the CURIOOkids Future Skills programme together with the other three tracks, over four terms a year with two sessions a week, at times that suit children's and parents' schedules.

How your child learns English with us

Children do not learn a language from word lists but from real situations: songs, stories, games and everyday conversation, plus curriculum-based activities that build critical thinking alongside the language. English becomes a language your child lives and enjoys, not a subject memorised for an exam.

What your child learns at each age

Kindergarten (3 to 6 years)

An introduction to common sounds and the sound patterns of words, then the everyday words used to communicate and express feelings.

Grades 1 and 2 (6 to 8 years)

Sharing ideas, activities and feelings with familiar words and taking part in speaking activities, then listening to understand a text and speaking clearly and correctly about themselves, their family and everyday interactions.

Advanced pathways (7 to 12 years)

Listening carefully to longer and more varied English texts, listening for information, and then understanding different text types, while reading, writing and vocabulary grow at every level.

Why start English early?

In the early years the brain picks up languages with natural flexibility, young children catch sounds and intonation precisely, and a second language strengthens memory, focus and problem solving. Read more in our article Early English: the key to your child's future.

The four Future Skills tracks

The CURIOOkids Oman Future Skills programme is built on four tracks that children learn together: English, technology, coding and robotics, entrepreneurship and art and creative design. Each track strengthens the others: a child designs an idea, codes it, presents it in English and thinks about it as a project.
