Bonjour! My name is Emily and I lead the team here at Kidslingo Ipswich and Felixstowe. My team of talented linguists and I bring exciting and engaging language learning to learners age 0-11 years, through our award-winning nursery and pre-school classes, extra-curricular clubs, curriculum classes (PPA), Language Enrichment Days and online classes. There is so much research which demonstrates that young exposure to a foreign language is the very best way to learn and we passionately believe that through fun and engaging classes children can have the very best start to their language learning journey. Below you will find information about the classes we offer but please do get in touch with me if you have an enquiry about something not mentioned.
