請教各位有經驗媽媽，Tutor Time / Anfield / York / David Exodus，這四間嘅Playgroup，有冇意見可給我，那間較好？

Anfield / David Exodus PG starts @ 18M
Tutor Time PG can start @ 12M
York PG starts @ 15M

My son is 11M now, have PG vacancy @ TT, just wondering should I take it first or just wait the other three?

Thank you!!

Sorry one more silly question to ask here. Is there any religion background for David exodus? The name seems strange

I assume it's Moses leaving Egypt but not David ?

I think York should not be on your list ... I hear a lot of good comments with tutor time despite the cost

I think you should decide which kinder you prefer and work back on it, since joining playgp usually have priority to kinder.

support tutortime more than Anfield, anfield, i tried both

My wish is entering Anfield / David Exodus / ESF Kindergarten...

I've applied David Exodus, but I'll know the result only when my Baby is 15M...

For Anfield, as I can only apply at the end of Sep 2015, so I've no idea on my baby successful rate yet...

Mama貝珠, would you mind to provide more information for me on why you think Anfield is far better compared with TT & David Exodus. Many thanks!!

My girl studied pg in TT sulffork from her 10 months to 16 months. I was surprised that some native eng teachers have no experience in teaching ( any kind of teaching) . They are just native eng speakers with no experience dealing with young children. For mandarin teachers, not impressive at all, 1 of them is not really committed , she can't remember kids' names even after several lessons

6 個月內轉左幾個英文及國語老師。

Besides, during free play , teachers do not have much interaction with the kids

I attended whampoa Anfield the teachers are so much more committed.

It's really difficult to make decision

作者: ChinPValerie 時間: 15-5-18 16:18 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

One more question, does Anfield PG very difficult to enter?

作者: Jumboshrimp 時間: 15-5-18 17:10 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

Ps you may try boxhill playgroup. My sister girl is in boxhill pg. Program is organized. Teachers are nice and friendly. And they are qualified teachers

作者: 貝珠 時間: 15-5-18 17:30 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

I tried boxhill pg too. 1 hr is too short, and again the interaction between children and teacher is not much. However, most of the teachers in box hill pg are experienced and caring ( when compared to TT Dorest )

How about TT Suffolk?

作者: 貝珠 時間: 15-5-18 17:34 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

As far as I know , no queue in anfield pg.

我有點覺得tt因為多人爭，被吹捧到好好。anfield playgroup 唔洗等，I don't know why

I did not consider TT from the start because the TT nursery is way too expensive up to $9000+ per month. I think most playgroup/nursery do similar things and I don't think it worth such hefty sum.

作者: ChinPValerie 時間: 15-5-19 13:50 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

May I ask how much for Anfield PG?

TT nursery costs $9,000 per month?!?!

作者: oneonemama 時間: 15-5-21 04:14 標題: 回覆：Playgroup @ Tutor Time / Anfield / David Exodus / York

I just join anfied summer course for my 10 months old boy. And he will start pg there in this sept as well

作者: ChinPValerie 時間: 15-5-21 04:24 標題: 回覆：oneonemama 的帖子

Hi OneOneMama,

Your baby is 10 mths old now? How can you apply PG now at Anfield? As I contacted the staff at Anfield, they just ask me to apply PG in end of Sep while my son is turning to one in this June.

Yes. TT has a track record hiring native english speakers who have no teaching experience or background at all. I met a guy who taught there and he was a sushi chef back in Canada.

If you are also targeting ESF kindy, why not try their playgroup? No priority but definitely gives you an advantage during interview.

作者: ChinPValerie 時間: 15-5-21 09:13 標題: 回覆：iloveguacamole 的帖子

I may apply ESF PG later in Sep. But just worry if no vacancy in ESF / Anfield / David E. for my son, and at the end 兩頭唔到岸

My daughter is studying TT playgroup in Salfolk (NOT Dorest). The teachers are great, the english teacher, Mr. N. , studied psychology in USA and education in HK, he taught more than two years, and the mandarin teacher Ms. W. studied education in Mainland China. They can remember every student name, also they will give parent a report for their observation. they will help the kids to play even this is a free time.

But honestly, the playgroup is so standard, they sing songs, tell story and free play. In an one and half hour, the kids can't learn much, as the fee is experience.

I heard from other parents and I also asked the staff in ESF, they did not give any priority for playgroup student to kindergarten. do you sure they will give priority for them?

作者: 貝珠 時間: 15-5-21 15:31 標題: 回覆：Avis_chu 的帖子

No priority. Just u never know if policy change in future, and let the kid familiar with the environment is another advantage

For me I won't bother travelling all the way to join the ESF playgroup if there is no priority. It's very cumbersome to travel with a 1-2 yo.

作者: iloveguacamole 時間: 15-5-21 18:18 標題: 回覆：Avis_chu 的帖子

No priority for sure. What I meant is, if your child's interview performance is the same as another child and there is only one spot, your child will have an advantage over the other one if he has been in the Esf playgroup while the other hasn't.

作者: iloveguacamole 時間: 15-5-21 18:20 標題: 回覆：964000 的帖子

Hahahah. Agree. But there ARE parents who would travel from Yuen Long to Wanchai just for a 2-hr class

Of course TT as it is well known for its playgroups!

作者: pushar 時間: 15-6-8 10:16

Let me share my experience at TT Dorsett. I joined when my son was 1y3 months (for 5 months) and quitted. The Mandarin teacher Ms C is very committed and remembers all children's names and during activity time, she would come and speak to each child to make sure they have "language exposure" (only for 2-3 mins as she needs to walk around and talk to 10 kids). She is a good teacher but just limited by time. As for English teacher Ms H, during activity time, she would like walk around, drink water and chat with 1-2 parents which makes me very annoyed because I am paying for HK$550-700 per lesson and there is no genuine language environment.

I can only say that one good thing is that they provide good snacks, have a nice and modern play area (i.e like gym) and their arts/craft is quite fun for my son as he enjoys painting around. Otherwise, the other activities are just playing with wooden blocks or play with dry pasta etc nothing special and you can do it at home.

I quit in the end feeling the PG is overpriced and teachers not offering full language exposure to kids.

Yes, you can tell quickly whether a teacher is committed and has heart at all I think that really makes huge difference. The school just provide hardware.
