Shy kid difficult to enter P1 of private school/DSS?

BettyNov07

My daughter is a 2007 small girl and studying K1.
She is talkative at home and in front of family members and teachers.
Her academic performance is also ok.
But she is reluctant to talk with strangers, even not say simple words as thank you or goodbye.




Baba and I want to apply private school or DSS for her but very worried that she may not speak during interview.
We always encourage her to talk with others but failed many many times.
Will she change by herself in the near future?
Any parent has this experience?
Will likely fail in the P1 application?
Or the kid may suddenly change in one day?

我囝囝的case同你女女一樣,真係一間DSS & PRIVATE P1都考唔到,但我已覺得囝囝學術方面已經好過好多大仔,一D都唔擔心升小一會辛苦,但真的對小一呢個GAME好無奈,為有6月再接再厲,唔得的話小二再插班,希望插班時主力考卷啦,希望在人間的!

Are u waiting for lucky draw now?  At the same time, will apply 2nd round DSS/private school?

We're encouraging her (via both soft and hard methods) to speak everyday when meeting others.  But still no good result.  So we're worried.

Did you try any method?

我預計我個女都會係咁, 所以同佢選擇了一條龍, 直升小學, 再在K3時試直資/私小, 保險D好...小朋友係可以變, 不過你唔知佢幾時變...

Dear Wallrac,

I'm interested the course you mentioned. Could you send me information on that? Thanks!

My child was a bit shy and not social before. After he changed school to an activities based kindergarten, he has become more social and outgoing within half years. I still remember his teacher commented him not social and needs to work on his social skills.

I kept on taking him to the playroom to meet other children. Gradually he would start conservations with strangers like children younger than him or even adults. Now he has become popular in school and started making friends as well. I didn't put him in any extra activities, simply let him to meet different people in a relaxed environment so that he wouldn't feel pressurized.

I can fully understand your boy's situation.  My daughter acted in the same way as your son's.  Her teacher said that she didn't have social problem in school.  So she can't help.

My daughter just be shy, even when meeting my friends and relatives whom she rarely meets.
