Extra English for Kids Baden Area

In August the new school year starts. And some of us would like extra English classes for our kids. Little Poppits, Landstrasse 51 in Ehrendingen has reading and writing classes for children from 4 years old, and play groups for younger kids.

What I like about these classes is that they have a syllabus (which is why you might like to get yourself organised now for August), the kids are amongst English "mother" tongue kids only (there are also classes for English as a 2nd language kids), there are "real primary school" teachers - 1 is from UK, 1 is from US.

http://yellow.local.ch/q/0792737953.html?cid=gmaps

The timetable isnt set yet for the next school year, as they are waiting for local school timetables to come out, and will set it by this.
The teacher let me sit in on a class with Kid1 before starting the course.

If I have said anything inaccurate about the school, its due to my ignorance - i am just one of the parents.. please contact Karen at the above email to get a better picture.

A lot of parents ask for ways to keep up their childrens' English so this is a great post. Here are some other options.

This poster claims to be a native English speaking, degree qualified teacher of English....yet, her posts have a number of spelling and grammar errors. Irrespective of location of said tuition, doesn't quite add up.....

Re: Extra English for Kids Baden Area

Cazzamia, I think that the point Mrs. D was making is that Lynn has posted about what she can do in 6 different places and has inferred that she operates in Zurich. The OP specifically asked for something in the Baden area. Mrs. D was asking Lynn in a round about way how relevant her post was to someone looking for something in Baden. Will Lynn put something together in Baden because if that is not the case then a) her answer was irrelevant and b) her posts are beginning to become spam-like.

And the link you posted still doesn't really answer the OP's question about something in the Baden area.

I think Cazzamia posted the link specifically to show that Lynn is not all she seems and *spam-like* is a very good description of her forum activities as she is answering posts from all over, not just Baden.
