Come and meet the characters
Before anything else, your child gets to say hello. A short, friendly session where they meet an EngJoy character, play a little, and we work out together where they'd love to start.
Twelve friends waiting to say hello
Every one of them has something they're brilliant at — and something they find hard. Your child will meet them all.

ElephantRemembering, heavy work

MonkeyExploring, creative solutions

RabbitUrgent tasks, deliveries
ParrotLanguage, stories, learning
OwlScience, puzzles, ideas
BeaverBuilding, fixing things
BeeSmall tasks, countingA hello, not an exam
Placement at EngJoy is by what your child can already do — never by their birthday. The play-chat is free, and there's nothing to pay unless you decide to join.
Your child meets a character — says hello, plays a few gentle games, and shows us what they already know.
No test and no score. It looks like play, because for your child it is play.
We suggest the level that fits — Sprouts, Explorers or Achievers — and you decide what happens next.
Five levels, one path
The play-chat tells us which of these your child will enjoy most.
There's always a real teacher
Your child sees a character. Behind every session is a trained teacher who leads the class, voices the character live, and knows each of the 20 children by name. The character is how we talk to your child — never a substitute for a person.
