Phonics Made Easy
Basic Phonics
COURSE DESCRIPTION
본 과정은 영어를 처음 배우는 학생을 대상으로 기초 파닉스와 일상에서 쉽게 사용할 수 있는 영어 표현 및 단어를 중심으로 구성되어 있습니다. 또한 간단한 영어 노래나, 동영상을 통해서 영어에 대한 두려움을 없애고, 영어를 친숙하게 느낄 수 있도록 쉽고 직관적인 커리큘럼을 제공합니다. Basic Phonics 과정에서는 알파벳 순서대로 배우지 않고 사용 빈도가 높은 알파벳부터 배움으로써 최소한의 수업으로도 스스로 학생들이 직접 단어를 읽고 발음할 수 있어 재미있고 쉽게 파닉스를 읽힐 수 있도록 도와 줍니다.
영어에 대한 입문 수업으로 모든 학생들이 스트레스 없이 쉽게 따라 올 수 있도록 천천히 수업을 진행하지만, 반복을 통해 배운 내용은 확실히 익힐 수 있도록 지도합니다. 스포츠를 처음 배울 때 기본기와 체력을 기르는 것이 중요한 것과 마찬가지로, 영어에 대한 확실한 기초를 만들어 줍니다.
PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS
영어를 전혀 접한 적이 없는 학생 또는 어린이집 등에서 간단한 영어 수업을 진행한 경험이 있는 학생에게 적합합니다. 화상 수업 진행을 위해 최소 7세 이상부터 수강이 가능하며, 8세(초등1년) 이상을 권장합니다.
COURSE LENGTH
본 과정은 총 12개의 Lesson으로 구성되어 있으며, 1개의 Lesson은 대략 1주(2회 수업 기준) 정도에 걸쳐서 진행됩니다. 전체 수업은 12주 정도이지만, 학생들의 참여도에 따라 더 빠르게 진행될 수도 있고 천천히 진행될 수 있습니다.
