回復 jinjinchan 的帖子
Hi jinjinchan,
I didn’t say the school was bad, just thatI prefer Kingston or Anfield over Yew Chung at the moment after attending YCorientation, glancing through the comment at BK, talking to someparents/potential parents at the above three school. You are the real user, so you are using a YCparent prospective.
I don’t prefer YC on the grounds below, kindlycorrect me if I am wrong:-
a)
bad impression towards thepotential parents: as I mentioned before, the orientation day was very laud,about 1/3 (I guess) are from Mainland (forgive my discrimination, given mypersonal experience for competing the antenatal service, formula milk….). The day there were really loud, some holdinga baby and didn’t go out the lecture room even her baby was crying badly. To me, this was very unconsidered. Some of theparents were smoking while we were waiting the bus to visit some of thecampuses. I don’t want my boy’s peersare coming from that kind of families. So I guess I don’t like the parents Iencountered over the orientation day instead of the school b)
language environment: YC useEnglish and Cantonese, I prefer Mandarin. YC encourages parents are communicating with childrenby “native” language – in my case, this is ok as my native is Cantonese and myhubby is speaking English. But if bothof us are speaking Cantonese, I may prefer one to speak to him in English. Though the school’s philosophy is right that a親子關係 is moreimportant c)
I note from a recent thread ofdiscussion that YC used two non-NET teachers when after the leaving of a NETone. Disputes over parents towards thearrangement. I don’t like that.
Completely agreed with you that if you don’thave the confidence towards the school then do go. But we sometimes simply have NO choice inrecent years. It is not easy to get aplace you want. So, I still use YC as my fallback even though I don’t preferthe school if I have other alternative.
The above is my personal views, sure not substantiatedby concrete facts. |
