Learning objectives:
We captivate the young ones with simple dialogues, activities, songs, imaginative illustrations and games. In order to be able to speak a language you must first of all understand it - and that is precisely what your infant will learn with Mortimer: first understanding then speaking English. With the aid of our specially developed teaching materials we will gently encourage your child with lots of fun to use the English language just as naturally as their native language.
Learning age: 1 – 2 years
Babies and infants have an innate feel for languages. There is never a better time in a person’s life to learn a language as effortlessly as in the first 3 years - the phase of native language acquisition. Don’t worry if your child doesn’t speak from the outset. At this age your child has the ability to learn every language. Sooner or later your child will start to speak naturally and on their own initiative.
Learning group: ca. 3 to 6 infants + parent
Teaching takes place in small, age-appropriately divided groups of ca. 3 – 6 infants. You as the parent / guardian can also accompany your child during the lessons and experience their learning progress up close!
Teaching material:
Set contains: 3 activity books, 1 craft pad, 1 audio CD and the green Mortimer English Club bag.
In our English for Little Ones set (ca. 300 words) we cover interesting topics which are suitable for children. Children will also become familiar with many typical English songs and nursery rhymes. You can find more information about our teaching material here.

My best Mortimer English Club experience!
„Last Saturday, after only 4 “English for Minis” lessons, our youngest student, Aeden, 2 year-old started to sing happily in English our “Sky Express goes up and down” starting routine song... awesome! ... And so cute! While singing, he said in French: “Look daddy, I'm singing in English!” Both, dad and son felt so proud, full of joy and love. A toddler’s language potential is really amazing! The right method and a loving attitude towards kids are enough to develop a toddler’s brain, intelligence and language skills. “
