Center for Accelerated Language Acquisition (CALA) is dedicated to reimagining how children in rural India experience English. Our program is built on a simple belief — learning should be joyful. When children laugh, play, sing, and move, language flows naturally. Through games, folk tales, rhymes, and creative classroom practices, we help students absorb English with confidence and curiosity.
Our program transforms English from a distant subject into a joyful companion. We believe children learn best when they feel safe, seen, and inspired. CALA classrooms are designed to nurture curiosity and confidence through story, rhythm, and movement.
We work with teachers, volunteers, and schools to create classrooms where English isn’t feared — it’s felt and lived. Each training, story, and reflection shared here comes from real classrooms, where small moments of growth turn into lifelong confidence.
Joyful Learning isn’t just about fun — it’s about freedom. It frees children from fear and gives teachers a way to connect deeply. In CALA classrooms, mistakes are stepping stones, and every small achievement is celebrated.
This blog is a growing record of teachers learning alongside their students. We invite you to read, reflect, and share your own experiences — because when learning is joyful, it transforms everyone involved.
