My son has been getting help in Math from a center in Wan Chai. The teachers are from the US, and they focus on helping international school students, like IGCSE and IB. PM me if interested to know more...

我考慮緊比唔比個仔讀RC, 所以我想請明問吓, 點解算數跟唔上, 是否算數程度很深 ? 還是因為用英文教而跟唔上? 又還是老師上堂冇教, 只係叫小朋友回家做 ? 咁, 是否要出外上補習班 ?

謝謝家長的分享

If I remember correctly, Kelly Yang Project 's name was mentioned by someone (son of a RC teacher) studied in one of the ESF school and  scored 44 in IB DP  , who gave a talk in RC last year. I think he was also  offered a partime post in this learning center.

Similar to the IB DP score published by each school, I beleive it is also important to know how many  students studied in the learnng center have took the test (or eligible to take the test) and the  score distribution.

Hi acdad,

Thank you for your detailed explanation.  My son is in P.6.   I am worried that his English is not up to standard.  However, I don't have confidence in private tutor.  Have heard about Kelly Yang Project?  Can any other BK parents give me opinion about this English learning centre?

Hi vi511,

Thanks but U might have misunderstood my previous posts about my daugthers acadamic performance in RC.

For the younger one studying in yr 5, her Math is above average  in her class but her Math problem solving skills  would need to be improved for yr 6 and for the MYP, based on the performance of my older daugther in Math studying at yr 9.

I never mentioned about their English proficiency in this forum. In fact, I am not happy about their English writing skills and have sent them to a private tutor to learn English writing formally since this term. I can see some improvement there but the tuition fee is quite expansive. As I mentioned in other threads previously, basic skills  (writing and Math) like that should have been taught and practice  in school.

Yes, there are a few things I am proud of them but they are not that acadamic. They are willing to speak Cantonese with us, seldom keep secrets from us, willing to add us on FB and other social feeds, respect other family members and domestic helpers, willing to join family gathering  everytime without playing any hand held games,  participate in the conversations at the right moment ,know when to switch off their  computers and TVs , . Besides,  they always let us keep their "red pockets"

Hi acdad,

I see that your children are successful in RC and you are proud of their achievement.  My son is also studying in RC and he has problem in English.  His maths is ok as he is attending Kumon and I agree that Kumon Maths does help.  Do you have any suggestion about improving his English?  We are working parents and do not have much time to talk to him in English at home.  Please let me have your advice.  Thanks.

Hi!how much per hour?Where do you live?

acdad

How do you feel about the questions in the survey? The tone sounds quite defensive to me.

Radiomama

Agree no more.  Coming workshops are scheduled at the same timeslot too!

acdad

I will attend the workshop tomorrow and I wonder why they set that at a  time when most working parents cannot attend.

Radiomama

I am not available to join the seminar.  Would you share the info with us after it??  Million thanks!

acdad

There is a 3 pages   survey for Parents and Guardians attending  the Mathematics in the PYP  workshop. Please read and comment . Thanks.

I beleive the school used to put the subject curriculum in the website before, even for PYP. I am pretty sure  I have seen that before a few years ago. The current bulletin  format is  quite confusing and not standardized. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for sharing. I tried to find the year 6 Math curriculum a few days ago but cannot locate that in the school website and find the format of such information has been changed and varied in each year's  Bulletin. Do U know where I can find that? Thanks.
