Both of my daughters were from St Cat and none of them joined any interview classes. That was only my personal experience.

其實真係好睇你小朋友當場的表現，如小朋友的心情，當日瞓得好唔好，其他小朋友的表現又會影響到。太多太多因素啦。

講得直接D就睇吓你好唔好彩囉。

不過如果你小朋友係主動及大膽型，機會就大D囉。

父母有無關係？本人覺得有D學校會有。

我身邊有個小朋友 St. Cat畢業, e+讀英華P1
佢都無讀interview班, 不過平時佢見到陌生人都好定, 有笑容, 好有禮貌, 媽媽係MBA不過quit咗銀行工湊仔.. daddy係銀行IT要員, 有教open U
細佬嚟緊都會報st. cat (2010年度)

It's quite hard to explain. I read through a St. Cat forum one year. There were a parent who got really angry as her daugher who can speak both English and Chinese fluently but got rejected. She had no idea why her daughter failed as she answered all the questions quite well in the interview. Remember, it's the Kindergarten which choose the students they like, they set their criteria and it's hard for us to answer why some kids failed. Maybe you can set up a survey to see how many St.Cat students joined the interview classes and get the ratio to compare? I'm sure some kids who join the interview classes may get into the Kindergarten successfully but is it due to the classes at all or would it be some other reasons? It's hard to tell. Everyone has his/her choice. If joining the interview class make one feel comfortable, then just join it. We are only telling our own experience that those classes is a waste of money and time.

Yanamami,

100% support you! You are what a mother paid heart to your child (readthrough a St. Cat forum one year), you know... some mother pay moneyonly!!!! ( to attend what what interview class..)

It is doubtless some interview course can help to enroll some KG. But for a child, not only a interview... includes the academic result, they needs your heart instead of money.

Well I think you don't need to put the words so hard.  I think most if not all parents do care about their child's education.  There are many ways to help the children to develop.  Either by playgroup or home education or some classes with special purpose.  I do take my child to playgroup and he will join the pre-nursary class too.  He is a very happy boy.  Yet, in order to play safe or somehow increase the chance to get into the KG that we as the parent trust, I raise this topic to know more.

My sister-in-law did take her children to the kind of interview class and she seemed highly recommended.  But for myself, I would like to see it by myself before deciding to join or not.  Frankly, some parents are of not highly educated, they may need more help to increase their children's competitiveness.

So in conclusion, different people will have different need.  There is no right or wrong.  If you feel got no such need, you can just skip the topic but not make other parents feel bad.  I believe most if not all are not foolish but just for the goodness of their children.

作者: BBbaba.. 時間: 09-5-27 13:13

From your reply that you did much for your child & you are not in lower educated. A interview is just taken for 8- 15mins. I believe you can train your child well for the interview if you spare time.

Especially St. Cat, they principal in English. I don't believe that interview class can make your son very good in English in a sudden.

YMCA has a good English playgroup that you can try, it is for long term, not for a interview.

I PM you a interview class information if you still want to take part in.

Hope you understand what i mean & my word won't make you feel bad.

P.S. If you did pay heart to your child, why do you feel bad from my word? In HK, both heart & money we have to pay for a child to have a better performance. Of course, you have your right to choose.

我相信沒有一個centre可100%保證到.因為收生與否,是在乎于該(心儀)學校,而不是那間centre,就以小兒為例...
1)I think that 學校会留意小朋友的認知多过學識(如有,當然最好).
做法:從小在日常生活中,我們已教授很多知識給他,如紅燈不能过馬路,如廁後或吃東西前要洗手,自己食飯等等,step by step 很快見效的.
2)小孩能否安定坐下回答問題(這是基本亦是好重要的;如不安定坐下,又怎能專心學習呢?)
做法::從小已養成安靜坐下食飯,到現在能獨立溫習及做功課.
3)提供更多的透明度,可更加他/她們的安全感...
做法:一些小事情,不防給予小孩自己去決定 [如明天是假期,你想到哪兒玩(黃金海岸还是會所游泳)呢?],當他知道自己也可以自主後,他的思維也可以大躍進的.

最後,只要我們能有耐心地(好重要)教導小孩,他們是知道及明白的....哈哈~

多謝你的意見,其實我相信你所提出的,我已做到95%,最令我擔心的,是面試內容及學校收生方法,我个人估計除非小朋友表現奇差或不討好,否則interviewers可能都係選取一些合眼緣同家長背境好的小朋友,對嗎?

i totally understand what you're worried about. Actually i have the same concern as yours and I enrolled one interview class at Mid-level, starting from next week.

I did spend time with my girl and I still think I need to play safe.

My girl's problem is she couldn't stay still and listen to somebody. When attending playgroup, she also walk away from the class and try something she like. I tried to tell her not to do so but I failed. I hope the class can help.

小兒是在2008年11月 in St.Cat (就讀2009~10年K1)的,想跟各有愛心的家長分享一些心得...
1)上年的競爭的確好大(激烈),
2)還記得當初在baby kingdom內看到一个訊息,內容是一個很不開心的媽媽說:她兒女就讀的center話自己可優先/協助園生取得st.cat的面試表格,家長是無需要自己去處理/跟進的,
3)最後,可能競爭實在太激烈,該家長沒有取得st.cat面試表格,更話該centre只講一句 "Sorry" 便算數,她非常之生氣,:evil:
4)以上,請問你們覺得最的負責最大?St. cat? centre? 家長 or 學生?
5)其實,選校及教育小孩,應該親力親為好,即使失敗,也心甘情願;如果bingo,個種成功感是難以形容的....
6)所以,各家長今年要留意下心儀學校的派表日期喇!

面試無難度...
小孩方面...
1)坊間也有好多書籍都有教授/參考的,
2)而面試內容也是"老生常談"的問題,如:你叫咩名,今年几多歲,這是什麼顏色/形狀等(即:小朋友唔怕醜,肯說話便可)
3)由於小兒已返學前(km),所有問題對他來說是"絕對沒問題",甚至簡單了些,
4)既然已有優勢在手,那麼...如何突出自己而令老師留下好印象呢?答案是好簡單~禮貌
家長方面...
1)跟老師對話時,一定(必需要)有眼神交流 (即你眼睛望住佢眼睛),
2)事前看清楚&了解該校辦學的理念/主旨,
3)笑....全程笑....即使小孩答錯都要笑...
a)減少小朋友的不安全感覺,
b)令老師感到家長是有愛心&耐心的 (因沒一個小孩天生就懂事,他日後的成就,就是父母付出多少的愛心吧!)
d)當然,你們平日也是這樣的對待他;不然,你可能會嚇倒他的...

最後,平常心(我也知道好難的)對待每一件事,因為管教兒女還有漫長的歲月啊!

interviewers可能都係選取一些合眼緣同家長背境好的小朋友,對嗎?

一定有,肯定係...正所謂十隻手指都有長短,你話無就假嘅.所以,笑容是不可以吝嗇的...:D

Plus:

Bring your kid to visit the Kindergarten (of course you may not be able to get inside but let your kid be familiar with the School gate or the outside of the campus helps a bit), so that he/she feels comfortable when it comes to the actual interview.

各位媽媽,

Yes, 我都好同意,這是最簡單&直接的方法也...
可能是小兒的性格關係,只要我們(全家)跟他說什麼,他便完全領略&做到的.
即使我們不容許他食零食(他事前是必定會問過大人的),他不會哭,不會大叫,會放下糖果...便說:咁我下次先食喇!
不過,最搞笑是,有天老師問他週末做了什麼? 他回復,說:我同爸爸媽媽去St.cat interview呀!點解我会知道,因為係該老師同我講返的,真的令人尷尬和好好笑...
這真是的心愛兒子的性格了!

聽講坊開有D好既centre可以提高考到機会,有冇介紹

我２個小朋友都讀SC，１個今年畢業，以我經驗SC比較喜歡收定定地的小朋友，家長背景我就唔覺有睇，我和先生都係普通中五畢業，普通職業，但可能两個小朋友都有讀英/普N班(樂基九龍塘)，但其他興趣班和面試班在考SC前都無報過。
若無讀N班，就報吓面試班，等佢習慣面對老師/陌生人都好，因為若你現在已經有唸過報面試班來訓練吓佢，而最後結果是怎樣亦無侮，相反，你就会怪自己嗱！同埋無論結果係點，這些班亦真能訓練小朋友面對陌生人，當多個實戰機会俾小朋友。
