Please let me know if you are seniors or have the same problem ！
How are you all improving your children's English at Corona Disaster ？

Our family moved here in April 2021 for a new job.
We have children in 2nd and 3rd grade at American school age.
We put them in a local school, but they only go to school 4 days a week, and only half a day, for Corona Prep, and the rest of the time they are home-schooled.
He has no ESL classes and is suddenly in the same class as native English speaking children.
Naturally, I don't understand nearly as much as I should.
Homework （ Home study materials ） are also too difficult in English, so we only do math and simple reading.

I thought this was a bad idea, so I decided to go to an English conversation school （ once a week ） which requires a lot of homework.
My parents help me with the homework and look up the meanings.

I also decided to learn piano in English since I had played piano in Japan.

I also plan to sign up for one or two summer camps that I can do without English skills.

Will I be able to keep up my English skills in this way ？?

I think there are many people in a similar situation.
I think the best thing to do is to get a private tutor to do homework and prepare and review school work together.
Or, a Japanese cram school that provides support for the local school would also be a good idea.

Although native teachers are better in terms of pronunciation, I feel that Japanese teachers are easier for children to ask questions.

I know it is a lot of work just to finish the assignments in front of you, but without basic knowledge, they will have a hard time later on, so I think it is better to concentrate on studying somewhere else. I would recommend going back 1 ～ 2 years below the current school year and starting with a review during summer break, but if you can't take that much time, it would be good if you could just review the previous semester. You can ask your school if they have an ESL program, or you can join an ESL tutoring school ？.

Children absorb information quickly. Please do not be in a hurry and watch over them for a long time.
I am sure they will become proficient in time.

In my personal experience, it is more efficient to learn a language in English
than in Japanese （ by looking up the meaning in an English-English dictionary ） for example.
