Re: York學校一問
cobymom 寫道:
Nicole & Wai,
Thanks for your tips. I've browsed the websit of York. They have highlighted their result and I think they are do very well in English teaching. However, will you talk with your children with English at home?I am more concerned if she or he can still remember it after few years studying in a Cantonese school.
I believe you'll be encountering difficulties in the forthcoming interviews if your kid speaks only English.
Quite a number of kindies decline to give instructions to your kids in English, which is true even to some very famous Kowloon Tong kindies!!
We attempted altogether 5 kindies in 2004. St. Cat offered English interviewing session (by NET); and only York's interviewer (by local Chinese interviewer) could accept to switch to talk to my kid in English, though they didn't have seperate English session.
As a matter of fact, 4 other kindies declined our applications.
My daughter has been with York ever since her Pre-nursery course - Jan. 05.
She was used to speak only English before her Pre-N there.
After spending around 22 months there, she can now speak both English & Cantonese, as most of the York's students do. She usually speaks Cantonese with us and English with her maid!! However, she's very smart. She knows who are Chinese & who are alien now. She speaks only Chinese when she know you are not alien!!
So, don't be frustrated when your kids decline to speak to you in English after several months schooling. It doesn't mean that they're having set back in spoken English; instead it is because she knows you are Chinese!! It represents that they have actually grown up.
In order to mantain their spoken English standard, we have to provide dual-language environment to them!!
York can provide good English training as I can note from the development of my daugher.

and still waiting for feedback. I think there are many mami will pay the money for reservation, but York is not their first choice. When their first or second choice are failure, then they will consider York. :evil:
