A Scientific, Speaking-Based English Curriculum for Kids | Built for Real-Life English

Are You Worried Your Child Still Can’t Speak English Confidently?

Even after starting English classes, many parents are concerned that their child still struggles to speak.

They’ve memorized vocabulary, studied grammar—yet real conversations feel intimidating.

At Nao Now, we understand exactly how that feels.

That’s why we designed our curriculum not just to “teach” English, but to help kids think, speak, and express themselves in English confidently and naturally.

Let us introduce Nao Now’s scientifically proven, real-world-focused curriculum—and explain how it transforms how children truly learn English.

English Learning Isn’t About Memorizing—It’s About Using It

The biggest reason kids struggle with English is memorization-heavy lessons.

Nao Now doesn’t teach English as a test subject. We teach it as a real, living language.

Children learn by thinking in English, expressing opinions, asking questions, and engaging in conversation.

This is what builds real fluency.

A study from UC Berkeley found that students taught with a communication-based approach were 75% more likely to pass English proficiency exams.

Live Mentorship + AI Feedback = A Personalized Curriculum That Works

According to MIT research, students who have mentors are twice as confident when speaking English.

At Nao Now, Ivy League mentors lead real-time classes while AI analyzes your child’s participation, pronunciation, and sentence structure—providing instant feedback.

• After class, mentors write a personalized summary + AI reports are saved on your dashboard.
• Every class is recorded and available for review.
• Parents can track weekly progress and growth through structured reports.
• Mentors are matched to your child’s personality and interests—dramatically improving engagement and consistency.

The Science Behind Our Methods: Backed by Leading Universities

Research from Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, and Cambridge has proven:

• Harvard: Play-based learning boosts language, creativity, and problem-solving
• Stanford: Communicative learning is twice as effective as grammar memorization
• Cambridge: Multisensory methods significantly improve memory and language acquisition
• Oxford: Scaffolded conversations promote deep, meaningful learning

👉 Nao Now combines all of these into a single science-backed English program.

Sample Lesson: Making Slime

Kids learn how to make slime in English, using vocabulary like polymer, elastic, and viscous.

For homework, they record themselves making the slime—explaining each step in English.

This turns memorization into real usage—and that’s when true language learning begins.
