Tots
The Pingu’s English Tots program is designed to help children aged 18 – 36 months discover this valuable language, and the world it can open up for them.
By the time your child takes their first steps, they’ve already made great strides towards learning their first language. At this stage, we can introduce them to the English language using a fun, friendly and proven method, and give you the tools to support them throughout the learning process.
Scientifically proven English Language Teaching
Educational studies have shown that children are able to tell the difference between two different languages from the age of just four months old.
Starting to learn a second language from an early age enhances literacy development in a child’s native language, and even positively alters the brain’s structure to increase the amount of information-processing nerve cells in the area responsible for language processing.

Characters
PinguTM was chosen as the basis for this program for the show’s universal appeal, neutral language and setting, strong family values and timeless quality. Although they have their own language, the characters can be easily understood through gestures and the rhythm of their voice.
There’s little adventurer Pingu, who makes a good role model for kids of all ages. He’s a proud big brother to Pinga, the adorable baby sister that’s in the same age bracket as children on this course. Through the characters’ lives, tots are welcomed to the English language gradually, using lots of fun and games to make sure the knowledge sticks.
Classes
Classes take place in small groups to make sure each tot gets the attention they need in an environment without unnecessary distractions.
Kids are given the encouragement and safe space to express themselves freely and gain confidence with a new language. Parents are also invited to attend classes, both to reassure and learn the skills to help with the learning process at.
The course includes 12 sessions, with 10 structured lessons (one per topic) and 2 creative review labs (one per 5 lessons). It’s based on the Level 1 of the Pingu’s English Pre-school program, so it’s easy for tots to continue onto the next level as they get older.
We keep the lesson structure the same throughout the course to help toddlers get into a regular routine. Each class consists of:
- Warm up
