To provide the most suitable English education for children, determining their level is essential. Therefore, a Placement Test is conducted before private lessons to identify the child’s general English proficiency.

English Course Prices for Children

It is not possible to give a fixed price for children’s English courses, as prices vary depending on factors such as course duration, program content, class size, activities, and instructor qualifications. For a high-quality and affordable English course for children, you can choose English Time Language School.

What Should Be Considered Before Choosing an English Course for Children?

Before enrolling your child in an English course, it is important to determine whether they are psychologically ready for such education. If a child does not want to attend the course, forcing them will result in an inefficient learning process. Willing participation is the key priority.

After this step, choosing a high-quality language school is essential. Institutions with smaller class sizes should be preferred, and the physical conditions of the building should be carefully evaluated.

1. Check whether the institution employs both Turkish and foreign instructors
2. Research whether private English lessons and online English course options are available
