國際學校 vs 本地學校

conmatt

如果不計＄， 你哋會俾小朋友讀國際學校定本地學校呢? 假設小朋友大約中學時會出國留學

I've only heard from LS students that they are stressed or unhappy, never from IS students.
Free of stress and happiness in school are priority in my household.

真係各有各好, prefer 讀國際學校, 但一切也得隨緣...

除了永远手拿英文书外, 一点不像接受西方教育下长大的, 不知是否虎妈的功力太厉害.training 太劲所致

Xxxxxx


如果孩子常書不離手，呀媽「虎」極有限。

Thank you for the reminder!  Honestly, those qualities are the toughest to "inspire"!  I, for one, am sometimes too focused on the "hard skills" as opposed to the "soft skills".  I have been a believer in 身教, but have much to learn in this area.

近年愈多IS 孩子, 除了永远手拿英文书外, 一点不像接受西方教育下长大的, 不知是否虎妈的功力太厉害.training 太劲所致! 就算拿得高分成绩, 却还是缺乏那么点点的自信,自立,自省能力, 相比下香港的老牌名校生或CKY等反而更优秀!

因此希望我们多留意有否train train 下, 却又踏上回头老路!

Yes yes, poor choice of words.  Should be more like "inspire" than to "train"!

Show and guide them how to make it naturaly. All are habbits and attitude.  If your folks are far beyond perfect, show them good people with big hearts,  and encourage them to follow the path that they want to become.  

Don't train them like pets!  Intensive and long hours training is the way to produce massive technicians, not the learners who develop their own strength to heal and improve independently.

我自己的孩子，未發力，唔知幾時發力，唔知會唔會發力。

IS 有一套很好的全人教育方法, 就算孩子天性随和, 唔钟意同人斗, 只要家庭成员有努力学习,积极态度的 examples, 他们一般已是读书的中中, 中上, 或上上之材了!

有人發力發到筋疲力尽, 有人發力发到嘻嘻哈哈, 算啦! 读书之妈, 又唔系做苦工.

I think all parents would love to have a child like that, bright, smart, intelligent, know what they want to do and how to achieve their potential.  Sadly, I also think most of us don't have a child like that.  I do wonder if these personalities can be trained.  I guess no different than how parents train their children to  read or be independent.  Some child can't bathe themselves at the age of ten but with training, some can do it at 3.  If that is the case, can we train our children to be hardworking, motivated and with a sense of direction?

Well, it depends.

But I would definitely choose International School, as the teaching and learning approach is tend to dig out the talents of children. It is more important for them to figure it out as earlier as possible.

Also, most of my friends who studied at international school speak cantonese and english well. Therefore, international school would be the best choice for my family!

可以在美國讀醫，肯定不簡單，中學差極有限。

剛翻查資料，他兒女都是䜖英基，兒子在高斯教授（諾貝爾經濟學獎得主）揩點下先讀生物技術，然後讀醫科。

他兒子發力之後怎樣？在香港讀或美國大學？讀社區學院或名牌大學？他家族有錢，其他人有嗎？

ANChan,

他兒子好像是美國讀醫的。發唔發力，不是父母說了就是。我不認為張的說話特別有意思，只是隨手拈來。我自己的孩子，未發力，唔知幾時發力，唔知會唔會發力。 So far, ok la.

學校種類係咁多。如放在IS,就要做好囝囡intrinsic motivation,又或放他們在LS,但家長做到不放壓力在成績分數。由著重過程著手。

如果小朋友本身無學習initiative好hea，讀IS或活動教學，確係好易水過鴨背，小學畢業都可以也都吾識。
咁可 ...

有沒有其他出路？
