Thanks auntieM...for a moment I thought it was the likes of Newton Kindergarten teaching in Chinese.

Thank you for all the comments. Really cannot decide on Berries or Han so have decided to continue with berries & sign up in Han for the next term.
Will see from there which is of better help to my child.

Sorry as for Tien Hsie I had a bad experience with them over a telephone conversation. Therefore, decided never to turn to them.

hi busymom and auntiem


thanks for your feedback. i agree that writing in p1 is late compared to spore’s preschool std whereby most schools start some form of writing by nursery. i m relying on the school to teach that while the enrichmt teacher focus on the word recognition.

understand. 'cept for the occasional word which I feel has strong dialect accent, her pronunciation is good. anyway, i may try out berries again. looking for something with a more balanced curriculum with writing and speaking.
