Learning to Read English in Gujarat
Where children learn
- Gujarat children attend Gujarat State Board, CBSE, ICSE and international schools
- Gujarati-medium and English-medium classrooms sit side by side
- How early English print is taught through sounds differs from school to school
Gujarati helps
- Gujarati is a sound-based script, so a child who reads it already knows symbols stand for spoken sounds
- That is the core idea behind phonics, and it usually carries across to English
- Many homes also speak Hindi, Marathi or another language
What English adds
- Many ways of spelling the same sound
- Short vowel sounds, such as in cat, cut and cot, that children can blend together
- Both are taught step by step in our classes
Who These Classes Are For
- Children in Nursery, Junior KG or Senior KG who know letters but cannot blend them
- Children in Gujarati- or English-medium schools who meet English mainly in class
- Children in Classes 2–6 who read slowly, guess words or spell by memory
- Families in towns where no phonics specialist is nearby
- Parents who want to see how their child is actually taught
What Your Child Learns
Ages 4–6: reading foundation
- The 42 sounds of Jolly Phonics, with pure pronunciation and actions
- Blending sounds into words from the first weeks, not after months of songs
- Hearing the sounds in spoken words in order to spell them
- Correct letter formation and pencil grip
- Tricky words and reading simple books and sentences
Ages 6–12: advanced phonics
For children who read slowly or spell by memory: alternative spellings, syllable types, prefixes and suffixes, and spelling rules. See advanced phonics classes for ages 7–12.
After phonics
Jolly Grammar: parts of speech, tenses and punctuation, taught with colours and actions.
How Our Online Classes Work
Free demo class
We check which sounds your child knows, how they blend and how they spell, then recommend a level.
Placement in a small batch
Your child joins a batch of 5–6 children at the right level, at a time that suits your family.
Live sessions
Sounds, actions, blending, dictation and reading aloud, with individual turns for every child.
About 10 minutes of home practice a day
We tell you exactly what to do; see our daily phonics routine.
Progress you can follow
Ask at the demo how progress updates are shared, so you know before you enrol.
What you need: a laptop or tablet (a phone screen is too small for reading practice), a stable connection, a quiet corner, and a notebook and pencil.
