      At least for my son's case, the probability of writing out of point for ming ti compo is much higher compared to picture compo.


      Agree that for those who have a flair for Chn lang, it shd be easier to score if you write ming ti ( provided not out of pt). Can u imagine PSLE markers reading hundreds of pic compos with almost similar story lines? Your essay will need to be q.different, yet still stay relevant to the pics in order to really score. By the same token, pic compo is definitely much \"safer\" for kids who are more avg in their CL std. :celebrate:

          Hi, my kid is 5 years old and speaks English most of the time at home. I’m worried about his Chinese language and think I should find him an enrichment course. Anyone knows a better centre that provides interesting classes to learn Mandarin? Appreciate your opinion!

            no matter whatever course by whichever centre you ended with eventually, do have the right expectation.


            do not expect wonders or miracles from a few hours per week. Languages needs constant practise, in reading, in speech and in writing to do well.

            Besides the enrichment course, you might want to reinforce with chinese books, chinese cartoon or educational programme, and to communicate with him in Mandarin only on fixed certain days of the week.

              多看卡通,打下基础,不然,补习老师要用英文教,很头痛.

                  Bravo! Your son has proven again that nothing is impossible, even overcoming a language that he didn't enjoy initially. But best of all, he has moved from just memorising passages to writing his own slowly. That, itself, calls for a celebration. And so, here's a little something from me to you. :rahrah:
