Beginner (Age 8-12)

Age 8+ 40 hrs

Pronunciation & Accent

Sounds of English - 20 vowel sounds (5 short, 5 long, 8 diphthongs, 2 schwa), 24 consonants; IPA chart.
Stress (which syllable receives emphasis), rhythm (stressed-unstressed pattern), intonation (rising for questions, falling for statements).
Common pronunciation issues for non-native speakers - /v/ vs /w/, /ʃ/ vs /s/, silent letters, schwa /ə/ vowel reduction.

Vocabulary & Idioms

Active vocabulary building - 50 words a week with definitions, example sentences, synonyms, antonyms, daily usage.
Idioms ("a piece of cake", "raining cats and dogs"), phrasal verbs (look up, give in), collocations (heavy rain, strong coffee) in context.
Word stress (CON-tent noun vs con-TENT adjective) and connected speech (linking, elision, assimilation) for natural fluency.

Conversation Skills

Greetings (Hi / Hello / Good morning) and small talk (weather, weekend, work, sports) for everyday social settings.
Asking (Wh- questions, yes/no questions, tag questions) and answering questions (clear, complete responses).
Conversation flow - turn-taking (signals: pause, eye contact), transitions ("speaking of...", "by the way..."), active listening.

Public Speaking

Voice projection (breath support, audible volume) and pacing (varied; pauses for emphasis; ~125 words per minute).
Body language - posture (upright, open), gestures (purposeful, not fidgety), eye contact (3-5 seconds with audience members).
Structuring a short speech - opening (hook: question, story, statistic), body (3 key points with examples), close (call to action / memorable line).

Group Discussions & Debates

Listening before speaking - acknowledging others ("That's an interesting point...") before contributing your own view.
Stating opinion confidently with evidence ("I think... because...") - clear thesis followed by reasoning + examples.
Disagreeing politely ("I see your point, but...") and building on others' ideas ("Adding to what X said...").

Interview Skills

Common interview questions - prepared answers (Tell me about yourself, Why this role, Strengths/weaknesses) in 60-90 seconds.
STAR method for behavioural questions - Situation, Task, Action, Result; structured stories for "Tell me about a time when..." prompts.
Voice (steady, confident), body language (firm handshake, sitting upright), and follow-up questions (asking thoughtful ones about the role).

Storytelling & Presentations

Building a narrative arc - setup (introduce character + situation), conflict (challenge arises), resolution (how it ended + lesson learned).
Visual aids - PowerPoint (1 idea per slide; big text; minimal animations), props (relevant, simple, visible to audience).
Handling Q&A and unexpected questions - pause to think, paraphrase the question, give 1-2 minute answer, bridge to your message.

Confidence & Practice

Overcoming stage fright - deep belly breathing (4-7-8 method), visualisation (imagine success), preparation lowers anxiety.
Recording and self-review - smartphone video; watch with mute on first (body language), then with sound (filler words, pace).
Weekly speaking challenges with feedback - 2-min impromptu, prepared 5-min speech, debate; instructor + peer feedback.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started?

Click the Book a Demo button on this page and fill in your child's grade and school board (CBSE / ICSE / IGCSE / Cambridge / US Common Core / Singapore MOE etc.). We will schedule a free trial session with a matching tutor. For details, contact our coordinator on WhatsApp at +91 93308 11581 or email contact@winquestonline.com.

Will the tutor follow my child's school board?

Yes. Every WinQuest tutor is mapped to specific curricula. Before the first class we ask which board your child follows; the tutor uses that board's scope and sequence, supports the school textbook chapter by chapter, and adds worksheets in the board's exam style. We currently support US Common Core, Ontario, Australian v9.0, CBSE (NCERT), ICSE (CISCE), IGCSE 0580 / 0500 / 0610 / 0620 / 0625, Cambridge Primary / Lower Secondary, and Singapore MOE.

How does payment work?

We require monthly advance payments for the number of classes scheduled in that calendar month. We accept Zelle, PayPal, UPI (for India), Stripe and major credit / debit cards. You can select your preferred payment method during the initial enrolment.

What if my child misses a class?

For 1:1 sessions we reschedule a make-up at a mutually convenient time at no extra cost (with at least 24 hours notice). For group classes we share a timed recording of the session on parent request, so your child can catch up before the next class.

How long is each class?

Each class session is 60 minutes long for academic subjects. Frequency is typically twice a week for K-7 grades and 2-3 times a week for high school, based on the board exam timeline and parent preference.

How is progress measured?

Tutors give written feedback on every homework assignment, run a short formative quiz every 4-6 classes, and a longer chapter test at the end of each topic. Parents receive a monthly progress report covering concept mastery, homework completion and test scores.

What is the class size?

For 1:1 sessions the class is just your child and the tutor. For group classes we cap each batch at 6-8 students so every learner gets individual attention and can ask questions in real time.

Are the tutors qualified?

All our tutors are highly qualified subject-matter experts with proven track records - many hold Master's degrees in their subject and several years of school-curriculum teaching experience. Each tutor is interviewed by our academic head before joining and is mapped to specific boards and grades.

What if my child needs to pause for a school break or exam?

Just let us know in advance. There are no contracts - you can pause for a school holiday or final-exam stretch and resume when the student is ready, with no penalty.

What are the requirements?

A laptop or desktop with a stable internet connection is required. Pencil, eraser, ruler and a notebook for working out solved problems. For higher grades a basic calculator. The tutor will list any board-specific requirements (textbook, geometry box, etc.) before the first class.
