Teaching Chinese at Home

[chergaby]

Hi Tamarind,


I finally got my AMEX card but still facing problem with ordering.
I am at Step 3: 填写核对订单信息 & whenever I keyed in the verification code, it doesn’t accept but just prompt another set of new code.

Do you face such prob? What should I do next?

TIA

Hi tamarind, I have read the 好妈妈胜过好老师 and like one of this parts: 不陪”才能培养好习惯


家长一着急就会替孩子做决定，这是错误的。人的天性是愿意遵从自己的思想，排斥来自他人的命令。所以在培养孩子的过程中，为了形成儿童的自觉意识，也为了他更好地执行决定，应该尽量让孩子自己去思考和选择。哪怕是相同的决定，如果它不是来自家长的指令，而是来自儿童自己的意愿，他会更愿意去执行。

Therefore, when DD was back after the supplementary class at 4pm yesterday and wanted to do some other thing instead of doing homework or read a story book, I let her plan herself instead of asking/remind her the school work. She then chose to make a dress for her Barbie doll. I commended her creativity and took a photo for it. DD was very happy and done her school work and Science MCQ (from me) extremely fast than usual. After that she took a bath and enjoying her dinner with a story book and get ready for the 8pm show 食在好源 头and went to bed after the 9pm new CL show. We both were happy and I learnt to be patient, not to 一着急就替孩子做决定.

Thank you for recommend such a wonderful book.

Hi Brenda10,
You are welcome That section also leaves a deep impression on me.

Actually this book is recommended for parents who can read Chinese newspapers easily, since the words are very small and it is a thick book, it may appear daunting to parents not used to reading in Chinese.

Hi Tamarind

Thank you.

I enjoy reading you’re input in this forum as well as your blog. You are very knowledgeable and resourceful. Unfortunately I only started explore this forum in April this year otherwise would help my dd even better. Now I’m trying to 亡羊补牢 and hopefully my dd would be a 黑马 and do well in next year PSLE CL.

Hi Tamarind/Leanne



Thank you very much for your encouragement.

In fact the 黑马 was mentioned by the CL teacher to us during the May’s parent-teacher meeting. We would continue our rate of learning and more importantly is dd does enjoy all these. :celebrate:

Hi

DS is 4 years old this year.
.
Recently, i start him on phonic. It once a week, 1 hr on each lesson
.
As he normally speak english to us and i got let him take phonic lesson, so
not quite worry for his english but for his chinese, abit worry. now at home, he will speak some chinese to us.
.
as me and dh are working, ds are taking care by bby-sitter. normally, after work, after we take our dinner, we will fetch him home ard 7-30 - 8pm as sometimes, we need to work late. so after work, we oredi so tired and by 9pm, i will prepare him for bed. So really not much time to teach him myself
.
