      Few points I would like to share to improve kids in Tamil language.


      1. Understanding the language-very basic step for the kid to develop interest in Tamil.For this parents must speak Tamil at home,in case parents don't know to speak then take the help of TV programs(vasantham,vijay,sun-there are some good programs in these channels,so let them watch),there are good websites for learning Tamil(http://www.kidsone.in/tamil/index.jsp).This website has interactive games,worksheets,rhymes,stories..so allow your. Hold for 15-30mins to spend time in watching these,parents have to sit with them and enjoy learning.

      2.Help your kids to master all the alphabets.All the textbooks have this one in the last page.Teach them to read aloud and write all the alphabets.Ask the kids to write these everyday(takes 10 mins) until they master this one.When they master this,then kids become more confident in reading.

      3.Read to your kids-start with books with simple words(books you can get from Raj publications or library).Ask your kids to choose according to their interest and sit with them to read.School library has got age appropriate books.

      4.When we practice all the above everyday,with in a month or two,kids will become confident in reading.When they are able to read and understand what they are reading,50 % of the work is done.Go through few question papers and you will know where the kids need to concentrate.So slowly help them to improve in those areas.

      5.Writing-practice is the only way.Start with simple sentence,practice lots and lots of question papers.

      Hope this helps.

        I won’t recommend tuition for kids unless they are in p4,p5,p6 where they have less time for the parents to go step by step.For the lower primary,parents can help the kids in Tamil by practicing everyday.I will only advise to see tuition as the last help,tutors are going to be there for 1or 2hrs per weak and still parents have to put in effort to practice at home.

          Can anyone recommend a good Tamil tutor for my two children, one in P4 and one in P2? Need someone who can speak English and Tamil because we are an English-speaking family. Thanks!

                      Studying Tamil is easy. If you have Tamil channels watch it regularly. I studied a little. but don't know how to write. Its better to buy some language books to study....:)
