As you enter the gate you will quickly realize that you have not come to a bilingual preschool, but you have entered an English – speaking ‘country’. We believe that young children only become mother tongue speakers if they have a person or a place as a point of reference for each language – First Steps represents the English language for them. In the Little Class you may see two/three year-olds making pizza for snack or dancing to their “tidy up time” song, with foam on their noses…

Summer School is open to all First Steps students. There is usually a central theme, and we include lots of role – play and various activities for all ages and abilities: in the past we have made a town, voting for the Mayor in ballot boxes and watching for the results with great anticipation; an airport complete with departure lounge and passport control; we have talked about ‘Planets’, ‘Feet’, ‘Wood’, ‘Water’, ‘The Beatles’…

The KET/PET/FCE/CAE/CPE examinations are a group of examinations developed by Cambridge Esol called the Cambridge Maine Suite. These five examinations have similar characteristics but are designed for different levels of English ability. On the other hand, at First Steps we actually prefer to offer exciting topical themes…..

First Steps offers a wide range of attendances, activities and lessons. To find out more about the most suitable courses, times, days and prices please come to our office…
