When you look up a word in the dictionary, there are symbols teaching you how to pronounce that word.  Those symbols are 國際音標 (IPA).

IPA is far more useful than phonics, but I think it might be too difficult for my little one.  Will consider that when he promotes to P1.

jesswong218, 想問下你對enopi eng 有咩comment啊? 我問過enopi eng 同 rwi 既分別, enopi 比較近似 comprehension 而 rwi 著重 writing. 你個小朋友讀左幾耐?

hi:
阿囡依家返緊、enopi math & eng、英文拼音&國際音標.  游水, 跳舞(中國&拉丁)，鋼琴, 手工藝！以上亞囡都 very
功課ｏｋ！

Tata1668

你就好啦... 我如果睇少一陣, 分分鐘要重新做過! 呢2個星期開始好少少, 佢做 enopi math 時10題都會錯3題, 之前.... 可能有大半都錯!

等我試下你個獎勵方法先.  我屋企都有 wii, 但我個仔一直都唔知係咩, 因為我地冇係佢面前玩過, 因為佢已經有一個隨(阿媽)身遊戲機... ipod

Well done !  How many enopi booklets that he got now? 4? I saw some parents said they have 3 but some have 5!  Is the workload of Kumon english still heavy? I might consider Enopi Eng cause the stuff told me that "no homework" for enopi eng!

HI:
至於這個時候未必有太大作用!但對小學時就相當有用!因英文拼音其實已幫助很多!但有些例子就會出錯!例:"ISLAND"如拼音就會讀"is  land" 音標就讀成"i  land"其實前者沒錯!
但有些文字是例外但多數是跟音標而行!
學音標前最好清楚a至z寫法!因音標有些字是倒轉方向來寫!

Jesswong218, 國際音標......this is the 2nd time I have heard about it only....is it useful for kids of this age?

hi;
是呀!國際音標通常是較大,學的!通常最少小學開始!較好!因音標符號較多!同時a至z有些字是倒轉方向來寫!phonics通常比幼兒及在幼稚園小朋友較好!因用唱方式及故事,普遍較比小朋友接受!國際音標就悶些!睇老師點活動敎法!

hi:
我比小囡學好多野，但無諗過要靠這些來定目標，
只要小囡有興趣我都會比佢學落去．
小囡有次對我講,
媽媽我唔鍾意學芭蕾舞(已上了6堂)!何解唔上呀!
媽媽我唔鍾意up&down呀!我沒有免強再學下去!
因她已見識過!
我個人覺得見識多D，人生才都會!
以上是我個人意見!如有不當!請莫見怪!

Tata1668, for RWI, at your boy's age, it mainly focus on phonics, so, I do not recommend your son to attend as he already finished level 2 in another center......besides, RWI is $280 per hour, much more expensive than the market price.......

HI ALL

Mind if I join the conversation ?

For RWI, it emphasis the phonics then blending and then learn how to spell a word by listening to the sound.  This course is a combination of both phonics and writing.  For the 1st few months they will teach you simple phonics then blend the word together.  eg: CAT, you know the sound of C, A, T but then the students should be able to put the sound together then get the right sound.  Then they will move the more writing and listen to the tutor and write the word down.  Next they will move to more difficult sound like th, ou, ay, oy and eg.....  When you move higher , they will read some passage , hold a sentence where they will listen to the tutor and write the word down (a bit like unseen dictation) and also some writing.

I find this is quite good as both my children will blend the word and read those out before they come to me for help.  

As for Enopi English, more on writing and comprehension.  Depends on your level and the content may be a bit different.  My son is learning things like on the table, under the table and etc..

HOPE THIS HELPS

Tata1668

GIPW,

Welcome to join!

Thanks for your sharing.  I think RWI might be good but... too expensive! I will try Enopi cause it seems more areas involved.

By the way, did you join the membership this year?

Hi all Mums,

I also would like to join your conversation ar, may I?

My son also in K2 this year. He now is having Enopi Maths, swimming, english course & music course. Both my son & I quite satisfy with Enopi Maths, workbooks are colourful, and easy to follow.

I am also considering whether to join Enopi Eng. or phonics course, or both. Do u know KCS still has phonics this year? If yes, join phonice course outside will be duplicated? Also, will Enopi Eng. includes phonics as well? I am so 心大心細ar.

Do u have any recommendation of center about phonce course? Thank you very much inadvance ar.

Sorb

KCS will continue to teach Jolly Phonics this year until K3.  Yes, you are right, there are duplication.  If you are satisifed with the progress in school, there is actually no need to join any phonic course outside.

As far as I know, Enopi English do not emphasis on phonics.  I personally do not have recommendation yet as my girl just starts her phonic class in a very small education centre, I am not sure if it is good or not.  I know some people have joined RWI and some joined Jolly Kingdom for phonics.  You may visit their websites for details.
