1.2.5. Why: English is the main prime language in UK and if the parents/family plan to stay in the UK, the child must attend English school and has to learn the language in order not to fall behind. Also, it is state law that the school must provide English learning for non-native speakers.

2.1.4. Where: Classroom, outdoor and at home

2.1.5. How: As teachers we can not tell parents how to take care of their child or give them rules to obey in the house, however, parents must help the teacher to lecture the child the importance of classroom behavior in the English classrooms vs. their house. We also have to bring in rewards for good positive behavior and positive enforcement praises.

2.1.6. Why: If teachers and parents work together, the child will learn how to behave properly in the classroom environment and also create good learning skills in order to be successful in the years to come as a student.
