Why choose Kidioma over a traditional language academy for your child to learn English or French?

Teaching children foreign languages is a priority for many parents, but finding the right solution can be a real challenge: language academies, private lessons, online apps... There are so many options that it can feel overwhelming.

At Kidioma, we offer a unique and tailored alternative for families in Madrid. Discover 5 reasons why our workshops are the best option for teaching your children English or French.

1. Great flexibility with schedules and locations

Balancing extracurricular activities with a busy schedule isn’t always easy. At Kidioma, we adapt to your needs:

• Flexible schedules: our workshops take place after school or during lunchtime, depending on your availability.

• At-home classes: workshops are held at your home or at one of the children’s homes, avoiding unnecessary travel.

• Personalized support: we offer to pick up children directly from school and take them home for the workshop, simplifying organization for parents.

• Customized content: we adjust our materials to each child’s level to ensure rapid progress.

2. Fun and dynamic lessons

Our classes are designed for children to learn while having fun. Unlike traditional language academies, we focus on a playful approach based on:

• Interactive games: board games, role-playing, and collaborative activities.

• Hands-on and sensory activities: painting, crafts, and creative projects related to the topics covered.

• Songs and movement: choreography and nursery rhymes to promote natural learning.

Written work is kept to a minimum to prioritize oral expression unless parents request otherwise.

3. A methodology inspired by Montessori education

Kidioma integrates key principles of Montessori pedagogy, making language learning both innovative and suited to each child’s development:

• Respect for individual pace: activities are tailored to each child’s age and abilities.

• Sensory experiences: children explore the language through activities that stimulate their senses and fine motor skills.

• Age-appropriate groups: our groups are structured (ages 3-6 and 6-9) to meet the specific needs of each developmental stage.

4. Full immersion in the language

All our workshops are conducted 100% in the chosen language (French or English):

• No use of the native language: our tutors explain everything with gestures, pictures, and simple phrases.

• Varied and monthly cultural themes: children explore events, traditions, and topics adapted to their interests while consolidating useful vocabulary for daily life (e.g., Thanksgiving or Galette des Rois).

This full immersion helps children naturally and spontaneously absorb the language.

5. Small groups to encourage expression

Unlike traditional language academies, where groups can have up to 10 children, Kidioma prioritizes small groups:

• Maximum 5 children per group: this ensures each child has time to express themselves in the language they are learning.

• Supportive and engaging environment: small groups build self-confidence and allow for quality interactions.

Why wait?

At Kidioma, we believe every child can thrive while learning a new language. Our at-home workshops in Madrid are designed to provide an enriching experience tailored to your family’s schedule.
