Pre-K
A friendly first step into structured English learning, helping young children build everyday vocabulary, understand simple language, recognise sounds and letters, and begin using English through live interaction with their teacher.
Is Pre-K the right starting point for your child?
Age gives us a useful guide, but children can begin with very different English skills. New Grasp uses a live assessment to identify the most suitable starting point within our curriculum.
Book the Free Assessment
Your child meets one of our teachers in a friendly 20–25 minute live one-to-one session.
We Recommend the Starting Level
We observe your child's current language skills and identify the most suitable place to begin within the New Grasp curriculum.
Choose the Learning Program
Once the starting level is confirmed, you choose the program and subscription duration that fit your child.
Early English skills built through interaction
Pre-K introduces English through familiar topics, simple language patterns, sounds, questions and repeated practice appropriate for young learners.
Vocabulary
Learn useful words connected to familiar topics such as family, toys, animals, food and the world around them.
Speaking
Begin answering simple questions and using familiar words and short language patterns during live interaction.
Listening
Listen to simple English, understand familiar classroom language and respond to basic questions and instructions.
Phonics
Explore selected letters and sounds that help build early pronunciation and future reading skills.
Early Grammar
Become familiar with simple sentence patterns and practise making statements and asking basic questions.
Numeracy
Practise basic numbers and counting while using English naturally within age-appropriate activities.
Live teaching, repetition and age-appropriate practice
Pre-K is taught through live private lessons designed to keep young children actively involved in learning.
- Two live private English lessons each week
- Private session length depends on the selected learning program
- Teacher-led vocabulary, speaking, phonics and language practice
- Familiar topics that make new English easier to understand
- Regular review so previously learned language is revisited
- Progress visible through the Parent Dashboard
A structured beginning, not random activities
Each Pre-K lesson forms part of a connected learning sequence. New vocabulary and language are introduced gradually, practised with the teacher and revisited so children can build understanding and confidence step by step.
Learning continues beyond the live lesson
Younger learners have their own playful Kids Dashboard, where practice, progress and rewards come together in one age-appropriate learning experience.
Clear next steps
Children can see what to do next and move through their learning journey with simple, visible progress.
Practice that feels rewarding
Interactive practice, games and rewards help younger learners stay involved between their live lessons.
The dashboard supports the live lesson — it does not replace the teacher. Children learn live with their teacher and use the platform to continue practising and progressing.
English through familiar everyday themes
Pre-K uses familiar topics from a young child's world to introduce vocabulary, simple questions and early English communication.
