WHY DO TEACHERS LOVE DEX?

“Dex the Dino is the best method for learning I have ever had in my centre. The puppet and all of the resourses are brilliant for our youngest pupils and create a funny, active and warm learning environment.”
Antoñi González, Colegio La Asunción F. Spínola – Montilla (Córdoba)

“Children love dinosaurs and Dex is a special dinosaur. His stories help children immerse themselves in English in a fun and interactive way. Dex not only works on grammar but also incorporates English culture and values.” 
María José Verdejo, Colegio San Estanislao de Kostka (Málaga)
