傳統幼稚園如聖心..小朋友用英文答問題會扣分?!?

GCCC1231

As my dau has been attending playgroup and now nursery at an international N&K when there are only foreigner as NET and mainland as PTH teacher. They don't allow even the parents to speak Cantonese within their campus. So my dau could answer question in English and PTH. I even don't let my dau to watch Cantonese TV.

As to Cantonese, we (my wife, my parents and I) simply chat with each other and with my dau in full Cantonese, so my dau understand fully and well in Cantonese.

Nothing special need to do if you want your kid to fully understand Cantonese, simply speaks to your kid in Cantonese and having conversation amongst the parents in Cantonese and let your kid to listen more!

Kid at the age of 2-3 is a spongee robot! What you give what the kid get!

Thanks GCCC1231.  Thanks for your advice.  I will try to enforce my family to talk to them in Cantonese.  I'll probably continue with English to them because I also want them to speak English like other kids in foreign countries.  Such greedy mummy.

Not greedy! Every parents are such! and So do I!

However, if you want your kid could speak Eng like a foreigner, then simply put him/her into an international school UNLESS you are also a native speaker.

Cheers,
Greedy Dad!

No, not a native speaker but I'd spent a long time outside of HK so my Cantonese level is at a elementary level.    I'm not the right person to teach them Cantonese lah.  ;)  Will let my husband do that.  My wish is for them to be really bilingual.

THANKS 咁多位媽媽爸爸既回覆..
因為我個囡今年IN聖心既時候..都係用英文答..每答一條問題..面試位老師都會再問佢一次咁中文係咩丫? 佢答哂所以問題..做哂老師既指令..但係聖心係唯一一間REJECTED我個囡既..咁岩IN ST.PAUL果日..我係圖書館遇到位媽媽..佢好心提醒我話傳統幼稚園小朋友用英文答問題..會扣分咁話..所以我就上黎再問下其他有經驗既爸爸媽媽意見囉...
小朋友讀書面試..真係一條漫長既路..各位爸爸媽媽一齊加油啦!! 最重要大家盡量以平常心去面對~~

i guess the school would like the student to know chinese as chinese (especially written) is more difficult to learn than english
