國際學校學生多唔多補習??

audrey79

Heard that local school students attend lots of tutorial classes and ECAs. How about IS students? Is it common among IS students too? If so, which subjects and how many hours per week?

most likely extra Mandarin learning is needed?

家長心態大於學生需要。

ECA 方面，也看孩子的去向。在我認識的國際學校學生群中，的確較少瘋狂參加ECA的（可能只參加一兩項），但我不知道這個看法是否片面。

About ECA, my experience is not quite the same.  Most of my son's classmates (senior secondary now) have real passion in at least one sport, e.g. swimming (get up at 5:30 am 2 times a week to go training), cross country, ball games.  Most of the boys are "fit" or even muscular. Many girls are sporty. Many of them can play at least one musical instrument at a high level. Grade 8 piano is common. Many of them have real passion in doing some types of community service, and helping others too.

Understood, probably 年齡層面不同, the ones I know are more from kindergarten to primary.

仔讀year 6，同學們普遍熱愛運動，操水、操溜冰、甚至兩項鐵人到不少。

同意，但於學校角度而言，一般都不建議四出補習，因所用方式不一定能跟校內配合，會令小朋友更混淆。

好睇家長，不過IS真係少d機關算盡和藥石亂投去栽培仔女的家長。

好似學樂器，就算學琴，都吾係schedule住小六前要考8級，又或者吾會嫌學琴難出頭，專搞冷門樂器...

most of them have extra English lesson and Maths lesson.
