學之園英文程度

hopeclover

想求教小朋友就讀學之園的papa mama, 聽講學之園語文能力強, 尤其普通話, 那麼英文呢? 除了拼音課程外, 注重和外籍老師溝通嗎? 足夠應付入讀英文小學嗎?  與York以英文作賣點相比呢? 謝謝回答~

我大囡一歲開始番過DMS（DB）半年，但我覺得老師唔專業，所以歲半就轉走咗。學校嘅嘢，各人有各人嘅睇法，我唔會去DMS嘅post一直講佢點點點，可能我嘅遭遇係個別情況呢？何不放下自在，何需一直追住唔放？漫漫長路，睇開D，小朋友同大人都會身心舒暢D。

If we can choose all over again, we would have either stayed in DMS or gone to Greenville for PN last year.

Sorry - after reading pages of your comments. I am really curious - where is your child studying at now? Which school fulfils your high aspiration and expectation?

其實只係大家想要既唔同吧！這正正係西方教育對港式教育議題。正等於外國人會由得小朋友  sir 樓梯扶手，我就要小朋友守規矩行樓梯。大家要求既禮儀不同。唔通有人教小朋友餐桌禮儀，我就認為係這會壓低小朋友活潑天性嗎？明眼人一睇就知係錯配！只係果位家長一開始選擇唔適合自己既學校！選擇學校係要做事前功夫架，自己選擇錯誤，改正好咪好囉！

Why do you think that "神校" did all bad things to the students??? "神校" all have long long academic history in Hong Kong.  Many "神校" have been rooted in Hong Kong for more than 100 years.

Neither of us is the child psychologist nor a pediatrician who could provide us the best suggestion how to raise kids.  How many kids do you raise?  Just one???

Please do not use your own view to turn down all hardwork done by LH because this is not fair to the kindergarten and parents with kids studying at LH.

If you have sufficient resources, go to an international school (has to be good one!). This is the only way you can get out of the local education system... Unfortunately I can't... I have to ask my kids to write at the age of 4 to prepare for local primary education.

大家對「神校」一詞有不同見解。

For me (of course it is my opinion again only), finding a way to let the kid develop at the right pace and give him the opportunity to explore and discover knowledge is more important than learning too much too early just to handle Primary school interviews.

one more thing to consider.

The staff turnover rate is very high (especially the Lohas Park campus) ...

This applies to all kindergartens in HK & even DMS (Central). I did not see the teachers to resign so frequently in other branches!

無錯,我朋友正是呢班小朋友既家長們,佢哋係真實既用家,佢哋亦認為,呢間係香港幼稚園,不是國際學校,唔好似為讀完真係會變鬼仔鬼妹。好多人只有一面倒讚,講下用家分享出嚟意見俾其他父母參考,因LH確實只係香港幼稚園,全英語有NET好容易同想入讀時既幻想有落差。

其實都係個句啦，唔好當間幼稚園係神。比你入到國際學校有close to native 既英文程度，你又會話佢中文淺。但係如果你一路諗住讀國際學校，將來工作又唔會同中國有咩關係，咁中文淺又有咩所謂呢。


我自己做HR，我見到個大趨勢，中文識睇識寫識講好緊要。加上自己係中國人，自己既語言優勢都把握唔到，我會覺得好浪費。思前想後揀左雙語學校，知道英文不能同國際學校比，但勝在兩面都ok。


至於咩chinglish，唔好推哂個責任比學校，做父母自己要努力同配合，放學後chinglish 既語境點都強過學校net既語境。做父母既諗住比幾千蚊就可以安坐家中？你估德成僱傭咩？

大家講下唔同的感受都是希望學校越做越好，等大家的小朋友得益。學之園真系有好好的語景，希望學校在設計課程上不要把它浪費了

'Ok la' 'no wo' 相信不是學校老師說/教吧？
若果是一羣本地小孩時的「溝通語」令小朋友退步, 不能怪學校呀.

Frankly speaking, "no la","ok la",these kinds of "english" are forbbiden in my family. I also cannot accept these.

Jane1983

吾係學之園fan，不過亦吾可以對學校要求太高，佢點都好過好多幼稚園，仲有好多幼稚園吾係日日有net、英文更弱。

家長都係睇餸食飯，收你小朋友，又ok近，各樣可以接受...

Yes that's true.  That's why I had to correct my son's pronunciation all the time last year (his pronunciation was much better before going to LH).  
I am lucky enough to be able to speak 'close to native' English so I can correct him while speaking English at home.  But for the parents who rely on the school to teach the kids English (when you promote yourself as 'having NET teachers'), then I would say the schools should be responsible for correcting Chinglish etc too.

But to me, having accent is acceptable.  But Chinglish everywhere in school may not be a good idea (ex: no wor, take this la, etc).
