      She did not do Chinese before p1. But she caught up with the others in school, and did well in all the exams. Basically in the first few month of pri 1 they taught hanyupinyin again and the strokes as well. So allow my girl to pick up the totally new thing.
      The above is FYI.

            Hi Tamama,

            It's just a temporary measure.

            He is 4+ years old 😄
