A Parents' Guide to English for Children in Morocco
Most parents in Morocco know their child needs English. What is much harder to judge is which kind of class actually works, when to start, and how to tell whether a course is doing anything at all. These guides answer those questions honestly, whether or not you choose Englify.

In short
This guide helps Moroccan parents choose and judge English classes for their child. It covers the age to start, how many classes a week a child really needs, group versus private lessons, online versus in-person classes, what a good online class looks like, and how to check that your child is genuinely improving rather than just attending.
Key facts
- Children can start structured English classes from around 4 years old
- Progress depends far more on speaking time than on hours attended
- Small groups suit most children; private lessons suit shy or exam-focused ones
- A trial class is the fastest way to judge a teacher and a group
- Ask any school for written progress reports before you pay

How to judge any English course for your child
Whatever school you look at, the same few things separate a course that changes a child's English from one that only fills an hour. Ask about them directly — a serious school will answer without hesitating.
- Is the class live, with a teacher who corrects your child in the moment?
- How many children are in the group, and are they grouped by age and level?
- How much of the hour does your child actually spend speaking?
- Is there a placement test, or is your child put in a group at random?
- Do you receive written reports, or only a verbal 'everything is fine'?
- Can you watch or try a class before paying anything?

Frequently asked questions
- Is this guide only about Englify?
- No. The guides explain how to judge any online or in-person English course for a child in Morocco. We mention how Englify works so you can compare it with other options, not instead of them.
- Where do I start if my child has never studied English?
- Start with a placement test or a trial class. It costs nothing at Englify and it tells you where your child actually stands, which is usually different from what a school report suggests.
- How do I get prices for my child's group?
- Prices depend on the format (small group or one-to-one) and the number of classes per week. Message us on WhatsApp and we send the current rates in dirhams before you commit to anything.
- How much do English lessons cost in Morocco?
- At Englify, small-group online English classes are the most affordable option and private one-to-one classes cost more per hour, because a private teacher works with one student only. Current group and private prices are confirmed on WhatsApp (+212 724 744 137) and on our prices page, since they depend on the format, the number of hours per week and the length of the plan. The trial class is free and no card is required.
- Are Englify classes online or in person?
- Every class is 100% online and live on Google Meet, at Morocco time. Nothing is pre-recorded: a teacher is in the room with you, correcting you as you speak. Students join from Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Tangier, Fez, Agadir and smaller cities, and from abroad.
