- A Vocabulary-enrichment program
- We have got to warn you, it is not easy to tear yourself away from this weekly dose of fun, laughter, relaxation, exhilaration, thumping heartbeats and thoroughly enjoyable learning!
- Now that you have been forewarned, here are the key features of the VocaBOOM Program.
- The annual program is held once a week, for 34 sessions. The 10-day Camps are held in the Summer and the Winter
- The annual program has four levels – PreBasic, Basic, Elementary, Intermediate
- The eligible age group is 4-12. A child can join at any age at an appropriate level
- A certificate is awarded at the end of every year
- The level of words taught is challenging and impressive at a child’s peer level
- Our USP is that it is application-oriented. Our measure of success is the usage of the words in the appropriate situations at home and at school
- Parents are kept in the loop throughout the year
- Our sessions are interactive, fun-filled, imaginative and party-like
- We have no formal testing
- We revise though innovative culminating activities for parents to appreciate and enjoy. Our three key culminating activities are the VocaBEAMER Contest, the VocaPERFORMANCE and the VocaWORD-FAIR
- We encourage teamwork and public speaking
- You will observe a direct impact on confidence, fluency in speech, articulation quality and range of spoken and written English, essay writing and grades in English
- We nudge the child towards Reading, to keep the momentum of English-learning on
- Experience the visible Personality development when associated with the program for over two years
BENEFITS/ADVANTAGES
- As children today do not enjoy reading as much as the earlier generations did, the volume of new vocabulary they repeatedly encounter is limited. Thus their spoken and written vocabulary is limited.
- VocaBOOM recognises this fact and works with a twofold approach. We teach vocabulary and its application with shorter/crisper/attractive Reading and Activity modules, which serve as the equivalent of the child having read approximately 15 new books a year
- We simultaneously encourage and nurture in the child, the love for reading as a relaxing and informative activity, which then becomes a regular extension to his life
- Application in a practical manner is VocaBOOM' s key strength. No curriculum promises the magical spoken and written incorporation of the new vocabulary into the child’s lexicon as we do. And these are not empty promises. This has been tested and experienced for over a decade in over 40 Indian cities and abroad, with astounding results
- While English Vocabulary is VocaBOOM' s mainstay, the by-products of attending this program are
- Confidence
- Fluency without hesitation
- Active Teamwork
- Sentence structure and grammar correction
- Elevated Conversation skills
- Elevated Communication skills
- Elimination of stage fright
- Elevated Social skills
-
- And we still call it just VocaBOOM !
- When your child starts participating in inter-school debates, essay writing competitions, college interviews and when s/he writes that impeccable Statement of Purpose, which will help secure a place in any of the international colleges of her/his choice, it will be her/his experience with VocaBOOM and the foundation built here, that will set her/him apart from his peers.
- A child who has been exposed to VocaBOOM for two years and more, can be clearly identified in a classroom, as well spoken, articulate, impressive and confident. That is a VocaBOOM er for you!
WHY IS VocaBOOM A CUT ABOVE THE REST?
- Our passion to produce results, keeps your children on their toes. This is a high-energy program, which children love just the way it is!
- Our methodology enables us to strike a chord with your child in the very first session. It is our ability to establish and sustain this connection that helps us rapidly build on their knowledge-base through vocabulary
- Our program-design is based on practical usage of words - every game is application-based
- We involve the parents throughout the process of growth
- Our innovative approach to learning is professional, researched and constantly upgraded. We are leaders in our area of speciality, simply because we understand your child
- Our basic principle of 'Consistent Quality' through international teaching methodology, led VocaBOOM to be one of the six worldwide programmes to receive an ELT International Innovation Awards nomination by The British Council, Manchester in 2008.
