London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art – LAMDA for Schools

 

Bring Your Pupils’ Learning English Alive in After School LAMDA Classes Studying for the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) examinations can be a great after school activity whether for primary schools or secondary schools. LAMDA examinations are suitable for very young children and even mature adults. They run from grade one to grade eight. For very young participators there are also entry and introductory levels. And, there are no age stipulations with LAMDA examinations, instead students are entered into the grade that most suits them and offers a challenge but is not overwhelming. Both the Communication and the Performance exams can be easily integrated into the school curriculum as LAMDA’s learning pathways support learning English in the classroom. LAMDA pupils learn to appreciate a wide range of literature from Shakespeare’s sonnets to Spike Milligan’s more comical work, and the examinations are an excellent way to introduce students to a larger variety of vocabulary and complex writing. Pupils learn how to deconstruct and analyse texts, both verse and prose. They learn how to identify technical elements of writing including metre, tone and form and also learn how to explore the thematic content, the sub-text, different characters and different routes of interpretation. LAMDA examinations closely relate to English and Drama but the overall positive effect they can have on pupils’ confidence and their levels of concentration means that the impact on school work can be much greater. LAMDA classes are suitable to primary pupils who suffer from concentration deficit, have problems with their spoken and written English or who simply have a gift for performing. At secondary school, studying for LAMDA qualifications offer excellent support in Key Stages 3 and 4 as the LAMDA pathway ensures speaking, listening, reading and writing skills are integrated. In addition, pupils learning English through LAMDA classes engage in active group discussion as well as interaction as learning English is brought alive by lifting the written words off the page. - See more...

London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art – LAMDA for Children

 

LAMDA for Children supports Key Stage skills in Learning English Does your child lack confidence? Does your child struggle with participating in school or making friends? Is your child finding it increasingly difficult to concentrate in school? Learning for LAMDA examinations are a great way to help your child develop a sense of individuality, strengthen attentiveness and define their character. The LAMDA examinations are divided into two main groups: Performance and Communication. We offer twelve week courses to prepare for communication and performance examinations. These lessons can be offered on a one-to-one basis or in small groups. Performance examinations focus largely on the performance process and learners will develop the skills necessary to communicate a dramatic text to an audience. Communication exams, however, focus on developing the skills to be able to effectively communicate orally. Both groups support the development of key skills in Key Stages 1 to 4 in learning English. The Performance examinations are an excellent path way for young children beginning to define a sense of their own identity. Through the exploration of different texts, writers and characters the young learners are encouraged to experiment with their very own character. Particularly for very nervous or insecure young children, performing under the guise of another character allows them to freely express themselves. Furthermore, learners are encouraged to combat any nerves that may be restricting the growth of their personality, as they build relationships with the text, space, their teacher and their audience. They are also taught about spatial awareness and lessons often involve the exploration of the presence they can have in a space using bodily and facial expressions. - See more...

London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art – Kids Learn Elocution Classes

 

LAMDA for Children’s elocution Does your child struggle and become frustrated when trying to communicate with you or other people? Does your son or daughter suffer from a speech impediment? LAMDA examinations are a way to give your child the tools to develop their elocution skills, decrease the impact of any impediments that may be hindering their ability to communicate properly and give them the confidence they need. Children are more receptive than adults and in particular have a richer capacity at language acquisition. Giving your child the opportunity to learn these critical language and social skills at such a young age propels the rate of learning. Lessons in elocution will support the expansion of vocabulary and grammatical knowledge. What, exactly, is meant by elocution? Elocution is the skill of clear, precise and expressive speech. Our elocution lessons focus on articulation and English pronunciation that will help your child to speak with eloquence. Your son or daughter will also learn English language skills, in particular, how to use their breath to support speech correctly and how to utilize bodily and facial expressions. - See more...
