Many of us want our children to speak, read, and write confidently,
probably in multiple languages. Sadly, ordinary schools don’t have such
advanced language development programs. A typical school follows the
traditional methodology of making students cram grammar rules and hoping
they’ll develop an understanding on their own.
Vidyanjali Academy for Learning follows a completely different
approach. We make the language ingrained in students' brains. Our language
development programs start with phonics and basic words, engaging the students
in the new language.
Our commitment to holistic education helps us focus on every child's
language development from an early age. Strong language skills lay the
foundation for future success. Our programs nurture their growth, making
learning fun and engaging.
With our unique blend of Montessori and CBSE methods, your child
will flourish. Join us and watch your child excel in language and beyond.
What are Language Development Programs?
The language programs at Vidyanjali Academy for Learning aim to
enhance your child's language abilities interactively.
The language development curriculum incorporates activities that
focus on phonetics, storytelling, and reading. The journey begins with sounds
and basic words. They engage in listening to stories, singing songs, and
playing games that aid them in recognising letters and sounds. This approach
makes learning an enjoyable experience.
As children progress, the programs further help develop these
skills. They gradually advance to reading and writing in languages such as
English, Kannada, and Hindi. Embracing languages offers advantages, including
enhancing brain development, fostering cultural understanding, improving
problem-solving abilities, and nurturing creativity.
In stages of education at Vidyanjali Academy for Learning, the
language curriculum becomes more structured. Students delve into grammar rules,
composition writing, literary analysis and advanced language proficiencies.
Through the process of engaging in projects, composing essays and participating
in discussions, students are equipped for achievements and future professional
endeavours.
Vidyanjali Academy knows the importance of language skills. They
teach students different languages, which helps them become good communicators
and prepares them for success in a world where multilingualism is a valuable
asset.

features that work together to make learning effective and fun.
Montessori Method
In the Montessori method, we create a special environment
for your child. Classrooms are set up with materials that help children learn
at their own pace. These materials are hands-on and help kids understand
language concepts through play and exploration. For example, children use
sandpaper letters to feel the shape of each letter, helping them remember how
to write and pronounce them.

Montessori-trained teachers
guide your child gently without taking over their learning.
●
Teachers observe each child and
provide the right materials at the right time.
●
They encourage kids to explore
and ask questions, fostering a love for learning.

Your child gets personalized
attention, helping them build confidence and language skills naturally.
CBSE Approach
The CBSE approach focuses on an all-round education with continuous
and comprehensive evaluation. Your child’s progress is monitored regularly
through various assessments. These assessments help teachers understand how
well their child is learning and where they might need more help. It’s not just
about exams; it’s about making sure your child understands the subject very
well.

Testimonials and Success Stories
Puneet’s Journey Through Theatre
Our community at Vidyanjali Academy is full of unique stories, and
today, we highlight the journey of Puneet Chandra, whose dedication to yoga and
theatre has profoundly shaped his life.
It all began with Puneet's childhood fascination with movies. During
one summer holiday, he watched "Kamanabillu," a Kannada film
featuring the legendary actor Rajkumar practising yoga. This scene not only
introduced him to yoga but also left a lasting impression that would circle
back into his life years later.
Like many, Puneet joined the corporate workforce after university.
Five years of intensive work brought professional success but at the cost of
personal exhaustion. It was during this period that he realised that his heart
truly lay in yoga. Deciding to follow this passion, he trained as a yoga
instructor in Mysore, a city known for its rich yoga traditions.
Yoga became more than just a profession; it was a source of health
and serenity. However, the call of the arts was equally strong. Since his
school days, Puneet had been involved in drama, cinema, and singing. His sharp
observational skills and intrinsic talent in acting received much praise,
leading him to participate in several theatrical productions and even three
films.
One of Puneet's dreams is to contribute to Bangalore's cultural
landscape by building a well-equipped theatre in the northern part of the
city—a region currently lacking such facilities. This dream reflects his
commitment to sharing his love for theatre with a broader audience.
At Vidyanjali Academy, we take pride in being part of the journey of
individuals like Puneet Chandra. Stories like these enrich our community,
reminding us all of the power of pursuing one's passions and the impact it can
have on personal growth and the community.
