Pingu’s English was developed following the purchase of exclusive English Language Teaching rights for the Pingu TV series from HIT Entertainment Limited in February 2006. An award-winning TV show that’s loved by children and parents alike, Pingu™ was chosen for its universal appeal and accessibility, as well as the strong moral message it represents.

Applying over a century of experience to this new venture, The Linguaphone Group uses the charming adventures of Pingu to help children aged 3 – 8+ understand how the English language is used in real-life settings. To ensure the best possible results for this age group, Pingu’s English combines proven play-based educational techniques with creative activities and high-quality learning resources, including:

• Study books
• Song/story books
• Audio/Video materials
• nline learning materials
  

  What We Do

  What is Pingu’s English?

  At Pingu’s English, we providers children with the chance to get ahead in life by helping them learn the international language of communication and business from the earliest possible stage. 

  This sub-division of the leading language teaching provider Linguaphone was founded in 2007. We’ve developed an innovative and creative teaching method that uses a charming TV character and its friends to keep kids engaged throughout the whole learning process.

Pingu’s English lets you combine safe and entertaining childcare with an educational program that will help your kids develop the skills and confidence to use English in their everyday lives.   

  Pingu’s English is consistently growing; opening up schools in markets across the world, and helping a new generation of kids to learn this hugely important life skill. We have a network of trusted international franchise partners, who work hard to achieve a safe and happy working environment for children.

  Program

  Our classes move away from the traditional school model. Instead, they include lively, engaging and interactive sessions that include everything from games and craft to stories and songs following a similar model of a Montessori school for English courses.

  Here’s how the program breaks down:

  • Four levels based on a ‘spiral’ topic-based syllabus, becoming more challenging as your child progresses. Each level represents a minimum of 72 hours teaching.

  • Levels break down into 12 separate units. Every unit is based on a different episode of Pingu.

  At each level, your child will be taught a range of new words, spellings, grammatical tips, helping to broaden their vocabulary understand the words in context. This method, in tandem with the spiral syllabus and multimedia resources, helps to confirm what’s already been learned, and encourages your child to communicate with confidence.

  

  Pingu is a great teacher and role model

  Pingu is an adorable yet adventurous penguin from the South Pole. With no set nationality, language or gender, Pingu has a unique ability to appeal to children from all over the world.

  Not only does Pingu make English a fascinating subject to learn for kids, it also energizes the teaching staff and helps them share in the sense of excitement. We believe that the more fun everyone has, the more effective the learning process can be.

  Every unit is based on a different episode of Pingu, which is shown in class alongside a host of learning materials that help bring the animation to life. Our classrooms, learning resources and practical activities are all based on Pingu’s colorful imaginary world. But, our results are very real.

  Principles of Learning

  Proven Method With Over 115 Years of Language Training Heritage

  Our strong education principles are what have helped us develop a method that is recognized and respected around the world. 

  Engaged learning

  At Pingu’s English, we use proven play-based teaching techniques to help children stay engaged with the learning process.

  Our course is based on the Antarctic adventures of lovable little Pingu^TM. This provides a colorful and stimulating learning environment that’s fun to learn in. Pingu’s world will inspire your child’s imagination, and make sure the skills that they acquire are skills they have for life.

  Unique teaching

  We then use spiral learning and parental interaction to revisit and reinforce the knowledge that our children have acquired, giving them the skills and confidence they need to put what they’ve learned into action.

  We focus on teaching kids English in a way that enables them to develop as people, rather than just using a simple listen and repeat method. We combine listening, speaking, writing and reading skills to give children a comprehensive knowledge base.

  

  Educational Preparation

  Not only do Pingu’s English students receive a valuable new life skill, they’re also introduced to full-time education in a balanced and welcoming way.

  We gently introduce children to the idea of learning within a classroom environment, helping to give them the patience and discipline they’ll need in full-time education.

  Our syllabus includes everything from written work, numeracy and IT to social engagement, craft skills, songs and games. This gives your child a rounded, positive first experience of education that will help them adapt to school in no time. 

  Global Appeal

  Pingu’s English is truly a global enterprise. Since we were established in 2008, we’ve opened new learning centers in countries across Europe, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East.

  We know that each country has a different teaching method, and that every child learns in an individual way. That’s why our franchised education model is flexible enough to be applied to any country, culture or religious group. Our reach already includes centers in such different markets as Italy and Thailand, proving how universally adaptable our method can be.
