For Parents

Hi, parents! I’m Scott — and if your child is learning English with me, this page is for you. Here’s exactly what English Tomorrow is, how it works, and how you can help at home (even if you don’t speak English yourself).

What your child gets here

  • Short daily lessons — under 60 seconds, one clear word or phrase at a time. Perfect for young attention spans.
  • A safe, encouraging space — nobody ever feels dumb for making a mistake here. Mistakes are celebrated as proof of trying.
  • Real learning disguised as fun — songs, props, drawings, and yes, terrible animal jokes. The joke is the reward that keeps them coming back; the vocabulary sneaks in along the way.

The teaching philosophy (in plain language)

English Tomorrow is built on three teaching approaches trusted in classrooms around the world for over a century:

  • Montessori — children learn by doing and exploring at their own pace. That’s why I teach with real objects: when we learn “apple,” there’s a real apple in my hand.
  • Waldorf — children learn through art, music, storytelling, and imagination. That’s why I sing vocabulary, act out stories, and draw on my whiteboard.
  • Open Plan — the world is the classroom. That’s why some lessons happen in forests, on trails, and out in the city, showing real English in the real world.

How to help at home (5 minutes a day)

  1. Watch together. Your smile tells your child this is safe and fun.
  2. Say the word out loud together. Fast, then slow, then fast — just like in the video. You don’t need perfect pronunciation; you need enthusiasm.
  3. Do the Word of the Day dance. Eyes wide, fingers dancing. Yes, you too. Especially you.
  4. Point to things at home. After a lesson about colors or objects, ask your child to find one and name it in English.
  5. Celebrate every attempt. Every word your child says out loud is a door opening. Tell them you’re proud.

The Art Challenge 🎨

Some lessons end with an art challenge — “Draw me a TREE!” Your child draws it, you send it in through the contact page, and it might be featured on the English Tomorrow Art Wall and on Instagram and YouTube. (With your permission — we only ever share a first name, age, and country.)

A note from me to you

I went back to school at 38 to become an English teacher because one person believed in me. Every day, I try to be that person for your child. Learning English will open up a BIG world to a young mind — and with your encouragement at home, your child can grow into an unstoppable force.

Thank you for trusting me with a little piece of your child’s journey. It’s an honor. 💛
