Why Group Classes Slow Your Child’s English Progress (and Why 1-to-1 Lessons Work)

I have parents who come to me after trying group English classes and they feel frustrated. Their child has been “learning” English for months — yet still can’t speak confidently or correctly.

Here’s the truth: in a group class, your child will only speak for only a few minutes in a 45-minute lesson. Most of the time, they’re listening passively, waiting for their turn, or copying others. And when they get the chance to speak they get shy and nervous. That’s not real learning — it’s background exposure.

Children learn to speak English by actually speaking — again and again, with repetition, with real feedback and correction. That’s exactly what happens in my 1-to-1 online lessons. Your child gets 100% speaking time for 30 minutes each class, direct support, and methods that elicit more natural English every minute.

Most children speak 300-700 words in my classes. That's a lot of speaking!

Every class is active, focused, and tailored to your child’s level. We repeat, recycle, and expand language until it becomes second nature. This repetition builds memory, confidence, and fluency faster than any group class ever could.

Another key difference?

Consistency and connection.

Your child learns with the same teacher every week — someone who truly knows their strengths, challenges, and personality. We build trust and rapport that keeps children motivated and confident to try, speak, and grow.

In Holz Kids lessons, your child isn’t one of many — they’re the focus.That’s how progress accelerates, and that’s how results last.

Fast progress. Real results. Strong English for life.
