English for 12-year-old children

Are you wondering what is the best learning process of English for 12-year-old children? Look no further, this is the best alternative. None of the online English courses for children has the natural learning method that we offer at ABA English, which will help you learn in the most effective way, similar to how your brain acquires the mother tongue: You first listen and imitate, then you learn the grammar and finally you practice it.

If you don’t know how to teach English to children from 10 to 12 years old, without a doubt one of the best ways to achieve it is through fun activities.

Learning English doesn’t have to be boring or something the child feels imposed. Rather the purpose is that they feel happy and want to come back to learn more.

Here we share some ideas that you can apply so that 12-year-old children can learn English:

• Memory games: an excellent strategy is flashcards that come in pairs. 

One card can be a drawing of an animal and the other its corresponding name in English. You can print them or even make them by hand. Shuffle the cards and place them face down.

The game consists of uncovering pairs until you find the correct match. The one who finds the most pairs wins.

• Hangman: this classic letter game consists of trying to guess a word in English before the complete figure of a hangman is drawn. To play you must think of a word and ask the other player to say a letter. If the player fails, you must start drawing the figure of the hangman which you can complete in 8 or 10 steps, as you prefer. Each error of your opponent will allow you to advance one step until the figure is complete. If your opponent guesses the word first, then they have won. Otherwise, you will be the winner.
• Songs: learning with songs is great.You can help children with English songs that are trendy, or classic children’s songs with vocabulary about animals, places, activities and everyday situations. You can sing karaoke-style or even use hand choreographies.
