What’s on 4 Kids 2017 Awards – Voted Best National Activity for Children aged 5-12 years old - 4th consecutive year - Voted for by Parents & Children

For over 30 years La Jolie Ronde has been a unique centre for learning not just a second language but a platform for introducing children to the everyday realities of the country and the culture they are studying. Our award winning programme, for 0-12 years, contains stories, action poems, chants, songs and games enabling children to learn whilst having fun! Children progress through the programme and there are different starting points so children can start learning French or Spanish whatever their age following a programme tailored to their age group. Topics are based on real life situations suited to the interest, experience and social development of each age group.

WHY LEARN ANOTHER LANGUAGE?

• ENHANCE LIFE SKILLS - Speaking another language opens the door to new possibilities & opportunities. Travel and lifelong friendships are built with the people you meet along the way if you're able to communicate easily
• DEVELOP CONFIDENCE & SELF ESTEEM - Learning a second language is incredibly rewarding and can enrich personal life too. We encourage children to use language in real life situations which in turn will enable them to overcome fears and doubts leaving them feeling much more confident
• BOOST OTHER LEARNING - Research has found that pupils who study foreign languages, tend to score better at standardised tests than their monolingual peers. This has been particularly noticeable in maths, reading, and vocabulary
• IMPROVE YOUR EMPLOYABILITY - Our globalised world means companies are constantly expanding overseas plus dealing with clients from all over the world. Speaking a second language enables you to communicate with a broader network

WHY CHOOSE US OVER OTHERS?

Sadly, meningitis and meningococcal septicaemia continue to kill more children under five than any other infectious disease and there is still no vaccine to protect against the most common forms. Therefore, it is vital to raise awareness of the symptoms and the importance of early recognition so prompt treatment can be given, which can often mean the difference between life and death.

Meningitis UK aims to increase the understanding of the disease through our ongoing awareness programme. We also fund a number of pioneering vaccine development research projects across the UK to find a vaccine to eradicate the disease. If you require any further information about meningitis or the work that we do, please do not hesitate to contact us.

What people are saying:
I have found this course really enlightening and I have been surprised at how much of it is applicable to my life and my family. I have learnt so much and feel that Leanne has a wonderful expertise in this field. By doing this course ( as opposed to taking my child to a therapist ) I am now able to offer support myself, model behaviour and improve communication with my children . I didn’t realise I could be so instrumental in helping my children with the difficulties they face, and I feel almost privileged to be sharing this journey with them now. Leanne has given me more confidence to be able to help my children manage their anxiety in a healthy way, and to ultimately encourage them to be the best that they can be. Thank you! Claire (children 9 & 13)

The POWER course is packed with valuable insights, clever analogies and practical strategies for helping children cope with anxiety, anger and social challenges. In particular, the course helped me, as a parent, better understand my children. I connected with the gentle approaches for encouraging communication and optimism. Thank you! Nili (children 9 & 12) The POWER course highlighted the vital elements underpinning emotional wellbeing and offered really useful strategies and techniques to bring about positive change. Leanne presents a comprehensive guide to understanding a child’s anxiety, underlining the fundamental role that parents play in both building a calmer environment and facilitating a more resilient mindset for children. A valuable resource for parents to retain, revisit and incorporate into the everyday care of children’s mental health. Naomi (children with ASD and ADHD aged 16 & 13)

And much more. Please reach out to book a call about my parent coaching packages.

Tuition and Registered Exam Centre

We provide unique tuition programmes for students of all levels across a range of subjects. Each child is provided with a series of one-hour tuition sessions with a subject specialist, either in person at our Northampton-based and Nottingham-based offices, or remotely.

Tuition is tailored to the needs of each student, making the lessons truly unique and targeted to their strengths and weaknesses in order to maximise students’ potential.

Along with our 1:1 tuition, we are also an examination centre, meaning that your child can sit their exams with us. This is ideal if your child is home-schooled, needs to re-sit an exam, or struggles to cope in the standard examination environment.

We also offer Cognitive Assessments and personalised training. For more info, you can access our website.

We offer these services as an Ofsted registered and reviewed centre, meaning that our quality and standards are held to account, so you can expect the best for your child.

All of our tutors are experts in their fields and have undergone full DBS checks. They are experienced and can adapt different teaching styles to help their students make rapid and significant progress.
