What is Pingu’s English?

At Pingu’s English, we provide children with the chance to get ahead in life by helping them learn the international language of communication and business from the earliest possible stage.

Pingu’s English was launched by the leading language teaching provider Linguaphone Group in 2006. We’ve developed an innovative and creative teaching methodology that uses a charming TV character and its friends to keep kids engaged throughout the whole learning process.

We teach vital English language skills to children aged 3 – 9+, including:

  • Reading
  • Writing
  • Speaking
  • Listening
  • Understanding

Our system gives parents an opportunity to help their child learn a language that will open up doors in their future lives.

Pingu’s English believes that every child is a competent learner from birth, yet children learn and develop in different ways and at different rates.  At the heart of children’s lives around the world is the right to play and to have their voice heard (UN Conventions on the Rights of the Child, Article 12, 1989).

Pingu’s English is consistently growing; opening up schools in markets across the world, and helping a new generation of kids to learn this hugely important life skill. We have a network of trusted international franchise partners, who work hard to achieve a safe and happy working environment for children.

Whether your child has English language experience or not, a Pingu’s English course will give them everything they need to flourish and grow.

Testimonials

We at the British Chamber of Commerce worked with Linguaphone Group to find them a new in-market partner for the Korean market. Throughout the engagement we had with Linguaphone Group, we found them to be passionate about education, supremely professional in their approach to business and both responsive and personable in their interactions with ourselves and Korean partners. Korean investors were attracted to the best-in-class program which Linguaphone Group offers, the strong reputation of the company and the heritage with which it is associated. These are qualities that resonate globally.

 Sean Blakeley, BCCK CEO

Our Experience with Pingu’s English has been profitable and positive from the first year. We relied on their professionalism and heritage, their staff is always prompt to assist with the latest trends and ideas on the market. We were looking for a brand who can guarantee us quality and a solid method but at the same time would leave us the freedom and flexibility in order to succeed in our challenging and competitive market like the Italian one. We built Pingu’s English project in Italy by mixing their huge international experience in the English training with our knowledge of the Italian market. All this enabled us to do the right decision for our winning investment. Today we have over 40 Pingu’s English centres and thousands of happy children learning English.

Regarding the teaching method they use a figurative storytelling way of starting the lesson,  trying hard to involve the child and make the them curious about the situation. Tom is very happy to go to Pingu’s English because he perceives the School as a playful moment and not just as a learning moment while at the same time he is learning a new language
