   Here are some Hong Kong centres that run small-group English speaking classes for children. Their class sizes and fees change, so confirm them directly before you book.

   Centres with small-group speaking or chat-room courses

   • GSE Speak Easy: This is the most directly aimed at shyness. It is suitable for ages 3+ , and its course is specifically designed to enhance children's confidence to speak English in social interactions and public. It uses small, focused classes with reading, conversation starters and flashcard games. The page also mentions a free trial class.
   • Fun To Learn English: Its English Chat Room is for P1–P6 students, with a max of 6 students and 75 min per lesson . The centre says many children find spoken English difficult and have no confidence in speaking up. Its Fun 2 Chat course covers ages 3-10 . The prices listed on its site may be out of date.
   • Little Oxbridge Learning Centre: Its Chatroom course is for ages 2.5 to 12 , with 1 hr / Class . It says its small group sizes will give your child plenty of speaking opportunities . Its web content looks dated, so check the current schedule and fees.
   • Monkey Tree: This is a large chain with over 70 branches . Its Chat Room course is designed to have students interact in a strictly English environment with a native speaker , for ages 3–6. It is a good fit if you want a convenient branch near home.
   • Hong Kong Institute of Languages: It has been teaching children since 1985. It has small group classes, between 4 and 8 children , and its courses are oral and conversation-based .
   • British Council: It offers small group English tuition – available for two to three students , as well as 1:1 lessons. Its Primary English course is small groups, receiving personalised attention from our expert teachers. The price for P1–P2 is listed at HK$8,113 per semester , with one 1.5-hour lesson a week. It is more expensive, but it has a strong reputation.

   Other options

   • If your child is shy, the Speech Festival coaching offered by Elite Kids English breaks each one into small steps, so a nervous or quiet child can build a calm, confident delivery over a few weeks. This suits a child who can be encouraged to perform. It is not a regular class.

   Tips for choosing

   • Shy children are not necessarily unsuited to group classes. The real problem is classes with too many people, too fast pace, or too much emphasis on performance. Look for a class of about 4–6 children.
   • Ask for a trial lesson and watch how the teacher starts. Good teachers proceed gradually, using small group activities, role-playing, songs, or stories .
   • Check whether the teacher is a native speaker and whether the pace suits your child's age.
   • Ask what happens when a child stays quiet. A good centre should accept a single word or short phrase first and not correct every mistake.

   If you tell me your child's age, your district, and whether you prefer weekday or weekend classes, I can narrow this down.
