Children of this age learn a language quickly. Under the guidance of an experienced OAKS School teacher, your child will soon be understanding how to conjugate verbs in different tenses, making up perfect sentences using words learned by studying and playing with other children. Numbers, colors, foods, animals, and clock time are some of the things that your child will be able to identify and use in English. All this will help them to develop effective speaking skills such that they can be understood for academic and social purposes including conversations, classroom discussions and oral presentations.There might be enjoyable school conversation training outside of the classroom to places around the school.

Average hours of contact time with OAKSS teachers vary. If your child is a single module OAKSS student, you can expect at least 2 hours a week and slightly longer in your child's following live in-field conversation training as the child takes on a heavier study workload. The rest of the time your child is expected to conduct independent study and assignments as well as tackling the reading list.

OAKSS will aim to stretch your child independent thought and analytical skills. For this reason, teachers will not spoon-feed children information but rather expect them to develop their understanding by doing assigned exercises, readings and repetitive studies.
Exams are also common, often coming during and at the end of each course level. In some cases your child may also be partly assessed based on your contributions to group discussions.
