Learn about the programme

Bukvaryata – this programme is designed for children who have never read before, are just starting to read, have difficulty understanding text, or are reluctant to learn because they find it hard and boring. Learning to read is always faster and more effective when it sparks a child’s interest. Our lessons include interactive tasks, game elements, and fairy-tale characters that will teach your child to read letters, syllables, words, and sentences. Colourful and engaging lessons help children not only acquire the skill of reading but also understand what they read, draw conclusions, and form their own opinions.

The skills the child will acquire:

to read words ranging from simple to complex

Lesson structure

All classes take place on our online platform, 1-on-1 with the teacher. There are no pre-recorded videos: the child has individual lessons with the teacher. Each class runs for 25 minutes.

Unique approach

combines educational experience and modern technologies

Edutainment programs

education + entertainment. Learning through play

Experienced teachers

who will find an individualized approach to each child

Online platform

that is easy to navigate for kids of any age

The course includes the following

Each task is a game that not only helps with reading, but with a whole range of cognitive skills: speech, memory, visual and auditory processing, and spatial awareness. Learning to read progresses from simple to complex: from vowels A, O, E, U and I, to reading syllables and words with consonants like M, S, P, etc. A child needs to understand the principle of reading open (ma, mo, mu, etc.) and closed (am, om, um, etc.) syllables to read words correctly. This is the most important step when learning to read. By the end of the course, a child will be able to read a variety of words and short sentences, and learn to write without missing any letters.

We speak Russian at home, but when my daughter started at the local school, she began mixing up languages. To help Vera, we enrolled her at Kidskey. We've already completed the Bukvaryata and Reading Trainer 1 courses. Both Vera and I really like it, so we're going to continue! Our teacher Victoria ...

When we came to learn speed reading, Diana could already read, but she wasn't enthusiastic or interested in it. She would read short words, but she skipped over long ones or words she didn't know. She would invent her own word endings and ignored full stops and commas in sentences. Whenever she read...

My daughter already knew the letters and could read, but very slowly, and she wasn't interested in reading. All my attempts to entice her to read had failed. Even her favorite candy didn't help. I was very worried about the quality of her reading and took my daughter to a trial lesson at Kidskey. ...

We started to learn English letters earlier than Russian ones. As a result, Farida got everything mixed up, especially the similar-looking letters, she tried to read Russian words but ended up with utter nonsense. A Russian "R" suddenly became the English "P". I had to start from scratch with the Bu...

Top FAQs

Does my child need to take the full course to learn how to read or can I choose some individual classes?
<

It is an integrated program, so each class is linked to the others. Consequently, a child needs to complete the full program to achieve a good result.The entire program is divided into blocks, each of which corresponds to a letter of the alphabet.

How long before my child is able to read?
<

Every child is individual and learns at their own pace. You will see the first results after 3-4 classes.

Will your classes suit my child if he or she knows the letters and can read syllable by syllable?
<

Yes, of course. Our program is aimed at both adjusting and improving reading skills. We take into account the age of children and choose the pace of learning that will support their desire to learn.

My child doesn't know or understand Russian at all. Will your courses be suitable for them?
<

We have students who don't speak or understand any Russian. In this case, we recommend that parents attend the first 3-4 classes. After a few classes, the child will be able to understand the teacher's instructions and study on their own. We also have teachers who can speak other languages. In fact, your child will benefit from studying with a Russian native speaker, since they will understand and start speaking Russian much quicker.

I'm looking for Russian conversation courses; I don't think my child needs to learn how to read. What would you advise?
<

We recommend paying attention to reading, since it forms the basis for language learning and retention. A child improves their speech and increases their vocabulary by relating words to pictures during reading. Repeating the same words in class helps the child to remember them. It's easier to retain new words through reading, writing and speaking.

Is your course suitable for preparing for school?
<

Yes, our methodology is similar to the school system, so your child won't need to adjust. The course will teach your child the difference between vowels and consonants, and hard and soft sounds. You child will gain letter-sound knowledge, learn to read by concentrating on the written word, and be able to read fluently, without needing to sound out each letter.

My child has dyslexia. Will your classes help them?
<

Yes, our school also caters to children with dyslexia. Our unique approach, engaging format, and experienced and patient teachers will enable your child to learn to read quickly and accurately. Your child will love reading with all their heart and keep up with their school peers.
