It has been a long time since I prepared an infographic and this week I decided to prepare one with some tips and tricks that I think will be great for this beginning of the course.

Learning is affected by many factors. Some of these factors affect, above all, at the moment in which we expose ourselves to the concepts we want to learn. These are the motivation, the way we learn, etc. But there are many other factors that affect learning and that have to do with our routines and lifestyle. It is important that you take into account these factors in order to favor your child's learning, and not only for them, These tips can also be applied to your way of learning.

Today's post is not for you, Prof, ni para ti, father or mother. Today's post is for your children or students. Good, maybe it's also for some dads, but only for some 😉

One of the main characteristics of the methodology that I use in iKidz, is that the students have class only one hour a week. Something fundamental that I try to instill in my students and their parents, is that if they only come an hour a week it is because they have to review a little every day, in this way learning will be easier and more bearable.

What's the score? The result is that indeed some work throughout the week as I have indicated and they evolve a lot, but others ... others simply believe that by sitting for an hour in my classes they are already learning.

Many dads and moms who bring their kids to my classes and I discussed what they would like to catch up with English.

The main reason why they did not go to school is the time. They usually have long days and when they come home so they feel like is to spend a little while their kids. Having to leave home, go to class, etc. Les is a time that is not available. That makes will postpone learning English or any other language.
