Why Teddy Eddie?
Teddy Eddie is a licensed method of teaching English to very young learners. Our main aim is to provide an effective and enjoyable learning experience for our students. Packed full of games, activities and songs, Teddy Eddie classes are all about communicating in English – with the help of our playful teddy bear and a dedicated teacher.
What makes Teddy Eddie different?
Teddy Eddie is a modern, child-friendly method that promotes rapid language acquisition through total immersion in a sea of English words and phrases. Our students get access to the Playground, an educational app designed specifically for the course. Parents are important to us, too, which is why we have prepared a detailed Parent’s Guide and developed clear standards for teacher-parent contact.
Ambitious and child-friendly
With the child-friendly format of our classes, our young learners are able to effortlessly acquire around 2000 words and phrases throughout the course.
Motivating
Engaging content and the presence of a playful teddy bear promote a positive attitude towards English and encourage students to learn.
Carefully designed
To ensure the effectiveness of the course, we use carefully selected educational content and adapt the requirements to the children’s developmental level.
Comprehensive
A dedicated learning app and a resource pack for students and parents make our course even more impactful.
Coursebook
With lots of songs, stories and complete sentences in English, the Teddy Eddie coursebooks are packed full of material. They are designed to give you an overview of what your child will be learning in class with the teacher.
Parent’s Guide
This book is for you! We have translated all the language material into our students’ mother tongue so that you can easily understand what your child is singing and saying. It contains ideas for language games and activities you can play and do at home. They are a great way to spend time together and consolidate new skills learnt in the classroom!
Access to the Playground app
The Playground app is an invaluable part of the Education Pack! It provides Teddy Eddie students with access to all the recordings they listen to in class and a wide range of language games for each level. Using the app outside of class helps speed up the language learning process.
Secret booklet and stickers
This booklet makes learning English vocabulary fun. Inside, we have hidden all the secret passwords (in the form of stickers for the younger groups, and full sentences for the older ones) that the teacher asks each child to say when they enter the classroom at the beginning of the class. This creates a sense of mystery and keeps the students excited about learning new vocabulary.
Worksheets and Workbooks
The Teddy Eddie method grows with the children, so the content of the Education Packs changes with each level. Children in Teddy Eddie ABC programmes receive additional worksheets and those in Teddy Eddie Superhero groups receive workbooks. Both are used to teach global reading, which is the first step to reading fluently in English.
The deDOMO method
We have prepared a bonus for 4, 5 and 6-year-old Teddy Eddie students - access to the deDOMO method created by our Ambassador Grzegorz Śpiewak. With deDOMO, children develop communication skills while playing with English at home with their parents.
Extra incentives
These include the certificate that every Teddy Eddie student receives at the end of their final class - a diploma confirming the completion of a level. There are also prizes at the end of the school year (depending on the level, children get badges, crowns or power cards representing the skills they have learnt).
TEDDY EDDIE EDUCATION PACK
Used by all our students, the Teddy Eddie Education Pack is an essential part of the method. Discover its components and find out why it makes a real difference!
The Playground app
Teddy Eddie students are given access to our educational app, the Playground. Using this app, children (and their parents) can enjoy a great variety of interactive games to help them consolidate the material learnt in class. They can also listen to all the class recordings.
Through regular use of the Playground resources, children are able to master essential vocabulary and phrases faster and more easily, which gives them greater confidence in the classroom. Plus, playing games in the app is lots of fun for young learners!
We follow an AMBITIOUS and UNCONVENTIONAL approach to teaching
We use language-rich and appealing material to teach effectively. Our content is both linguistically challenging and engaging for young learners. Our classes are innovative, based on modern methodological concepts, and designed to encourage fun, positive cooperation and practical use of the language. We guarantee spectacular results!
We care about children’s WELL-BEING
We respect the well-being of young learners, teach them independence and help them develop a sense of agency. We know that children’s emotions are important and we aim to build their self-esteem through the development of language skills. We use positive feedback to encourage a sense of achievement and develop intrinsic motivation.
We believe in PARENTAL COMMITMENT
Our carefully designed teacher-parent communication system helps us to effectively provide ongoing information about each child’s progress. We believe that positive parental involvement makes all the difference to the effectiveness of teaching. We also advise parents on how they can support their child in learning English.
Wartości
In teaching primary kids, we have consistently been guided by our values, which combine challenging objectives with a friendly, supportive classroom environment. Our students have a lot of fun in class, which contributes to a strong belief that learning can be enjoyable and that improving their competences is rewarding.
