FAQs – Online Reading Programmes

The book club is for ages seven and eight. 

Read, Write, Explore is for ages nine and ten.

Both are online reading programmes, but the length of the book, expected reading level, and kinds of activities are different based on the age-group.

Children who love reading, or children who want to develop a love for reading are welcome to join. 

Reading levels vary widely, so I would suggest that you take a quick look at the books before you sign up.

• Children who struggle with English would not be a good fit for either programme.
• Children who do not have access to a good internet connection would find it difficult to keep up.
• For Read, Write, Explore, much of the reading happens independently (not in class), so the children must be willing and able to read independently.

The books we read are carefully curated based on the average reading level of children in the age-group, as well as on the activities we can do based on the books.

For ages 7 and 8, the books are typically between 60 and 120 pages long. They have black-and-white illustrations.

For ages 9 and 10, the books are typically between 120 and 250 pages long. A lot of reading happens independently, and most of the books we read have black-and-white illustrations.

We will read excerpts from the books in class. Linked to the stories, we will do several activities, including vocabulary quizzes, drawing, creative writing and role play.

No, sorry.

No, sorry. If you are unsure about signing up, you could consider joining my book club to read just one book with me, instead of signing up for the entire programme. Get in touch to learn about the fee. You can also send me a message on Facebook or Instagram.

However, once the fee is paid, it is non-refundable.

The fee includes 12 online sessions of 45 minutes each. Until one week before the programme begins, the fee also includes the books, which will be delivered anywhere in India.
