English language learning for children with English is Fun!
English is Fun! (EIF) is an innovative English language learning program for children, created by Adriana Cantisani. Designed for toddlers, preschoolers, and young learners, EIF combines English language acquisition with physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and language development, giving children a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
As demand grows for high-quality English classes for children, parents are increasingly looking for programs that go beyond traditional language instruction. EIF responds to this need with a child-centred, play-based English learning approach that helps children learn the language naturally while building confidence, creativity, communication skills, and independence.

What teachers are saying...
Teachers from all different contexts and backgrounds have used English is Fun! to transform their classrooms and their careers. Real teachers. Real changes in confidence, success, and classroom life.
Paola: from overwhelmed teacher to empowered school founder
Paola joined English is Fun! feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to engage young learners. After the training, her lessons became structured, lively, and effective. Her students began progressing faster, parents noticed the difference, and her confidence as a teacher grew. Today, Paola has expanded her work so successfully that she eventually opened her own English school.
Marianna: building a flexible career through strategic teaching
Marianna loved teaching but felt she lacked a clear method. Through English is Fun!, she learned how to structure lessons that truly work with young children. Her classes became calmer, more engaging, and easier to manage. The method also gave her the freedom to build a career on her own terms. Today, she balances teaching with family life while running her own successful classes.
Ilaria: from uncertainty to expert teaching
Ilaria wanted her lessons to feel more effective and enjoyable for both her and her students. Through English is Fun!, she discovered a clear structure that made teaching easier and classroom interaction more natural. Today, she teaches with confidence and renewed enthusiasm.
With English is Fun! you're not just teaching English.

FAQs
Who can become an EIF teacher?
Anyone who speaks English, enjoys being with children, and is ready to make a change in their life. All you need to do is enrol in the EIF Yellow Stage Teacher Training, which is completely online and consists of pre-recorded video lessons and 3 conference calls with me.
Do I need teaching experience?
No. The EIF Teacher Training begins with the foundations — including child development and how children actually learn language — and then builds step by step. You don’t need prior teaching experience with the English is Fun! method. By the end of the training, you’ll understand how to carry out your lessons, guide children naturally, and teach with purpose from the very beginning.
What age group does EIF cover?
The Yellow Stage is for childen from about 4 to 8 years of age and the Blue Stage is for children from about 1-3. Each stage is designed to work with children of different ages — even within the same group. During the teacher training, you’ll learn how to adapt activities, manage mixed groups, and upgrade lessons for older children when needed.
Is the training course online?
The training course consists of over 100 pre-recorded videos and 3 conference calls with me. You can watch the videos on your laptop or phone and whenever is most convenient. The videos are presented in order and you can check your progression or pick up where you left off at any time. You will have 3 months to complete the course from the moment of enrolment, but most finish well within that time frame.
How is EIF different from other methods?
Most methods don't offer specific training courses for their teachers and when they do, they usually just give you the theory; you then get to design your own lessons. English is Fun! is a complete system which includes a unique communicative approach that helps children understand you from the very first lesson—without translation—and tried and tested, developmentally structured lesson plans to use with your children. There is no guesswork involved. Ever.
Is there a training course for the Blue Stage program?
Yes. It is currently not available through the website, though (but will be soon!) A prerequisite for the Blue Stage Teacher Training is completion of the Yellow Stage training as it is the core of the method. Information on the Blue Stage training will be provided during the Yellow Stage training.

How English is Fun! was created
I began rebuilding everything from the ground up. I stopped asking, "How should we teach English?" and started asking, "How do young children naturally learn?"
What emerged was a thematic program structured around developmentally appropriate experiences where every movement, every game, every interaction worked together to promote children’s natural learning skills, while fostering their social, emotional, physical, linguistic, and cognitive growth. Every experience had a purpose. Nothing was random. Nothing was filler.
For the first time, teaching felt clear, predictable, and sustainable. For the first time, the kids were actually acquiring the language- the infrastructure of the English language- not just lists of words! It became my method and I called it English is Fun! because the kids loved it ... but also to counteract what I had been feeling up to that moment: that teaching English was not fun at all!
EIF is an inclusive method which allows every child to thrive. It is unique as it intertwines a solid pedagogical base with an educational program for children ages 4-8 called EIF Yellow Stage.
And today, my EIF Yellow Stage Thematic Bundles provide teachers with lessons that deliver time and again; lessons that work with children’s development instead of against it.
About Adri
English is Fun! was created by Adriana Cantisani, an educator with over 30 years of experience teaching English as a foreign language. Active in Italy since 2001, she has trained more than 1,000 teachers, bringing EIF to thousands of children in schools and private educational settings.
With a degree in Italian Studies and a minor in Cognitive Psychology from the University of California, San Diego, and certification in the Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment (FIE-Basic) program, her work bridges structured cognitive development with practical classroom application.
Over the years, the success of the method led to national television collaborations and educational programming, as well as the publication of two books focused on child development and early language learning. But her most significant work has always remained in the classroom refining a structured approach that aligns English teaching with how young children naturally grow, think, and learn. That structured approach is English is Fun!
Become a certified English is Fun! Teacher
The EIF Yellow Stage Teacher Training is open to anyone who wants to learn how to teach English to young children, whether they are already a teacher or not. (Many of my most successful teachers started with no classroom background at all.)
