Thanks for your questions.
It's his fourth year studying in this school. When he was two, we enrolled him in the IN1 (International Nursery). During class, his class teachers talked to him either in PTH or English as they are native speakers. He did have some local teachers to assist the class activities. Basically he communicated with them with the target languages (both PTH and English)
Since then, he just continued his study in the international classes (IK1, IK2 & now IK3). He gets used to responding to his teachers in PTH and English but of course not as fluent as a native speaker. He has an Australian classmate and so he has to talk to him in English. His best friend is a PTH native. With such a strong motivation, he has to use it daily. My husband and I believe 'Practice makes perfect'.
Back to topic, we didn't enrol him for any tutorial classes or any interview training workshops. How do we equip him for interviews? We go to the public libary twice a month. We borrow both Chinese and English books for our two children. We read books together. What I mean is reading aloud not silent reading or just story-telling. We teach them to read some common words which can be freqently seen on story books and so. Sometimes my husband dramatises the plot with the kids. What's more, we read newspaper together. Whenever we come across some words he knows, we will ask him to read. We believe that our usual practice can enhance his speaking development, improve his pronunciation, know more vocabulary items and link what he learns to his real life.
We did train him by having daily revision. My husband spends around an hour a day to revise Chinese & Maths with him. I see to English revision. From time to time, he manages to read and recognise what his teachers taught him.
Before the P.1 interviews, we had rehearsals at home. We praised his good behaviour and of course we correct his inappropriate behaviour and the way he speaks.
Last but not least, we talk and play with our kids every night. My son is fond of playing Chinese chess and guessing games. So does my little daughter. We also sing karaoke together. I would say a good family ties provides them a healthy life. We seldom stay at home at weekends. We take them to visit different places in HK such as museums and parks. In addition to this, we take our kids to watch stage performance like magic show, kid's play at theatres. We want to broaden their horizons.
We haven't asked the others to help train our kids and perhaps this is our secret to my son's success in primary one admission.
God bless.

How do you and when do you prepare for the interviews? Is your son's KG speaking Eng for all lessons except for Chinese? I send my son to tutorial classes e.g. Mandarin speech, Eng oral & reading, En ...
