I agreed what you said.
We had the experience to attend k1 Interview in past 2 years.
(This year my gal became the super big gal among the applicants).
We realized most of the kinders interviewed in Cantonese ( The schools are in favor that we feel)
unless you applied Eng/Pth section which required speaking in the proper language.
This applied to most of the hot Kinders.

I also think there is no advantage for the kids speak merely in English daily if you focus on the traditional Kinders cos most of them conduct the teaching in Cantonese mainly.

We got the black face whilst we had the interview on one of the girls traditional kinder at our 1st year interview. At that time my gal speak English more than Chinese. It seem we had the wrong approach.

( Just my point of view & experience)

LH can choose the language for interview.  My two children could not speak Cantonese when they had the interview.  Both of them had interview in English.  We did not see any black face.

我朋友兩年前in lh(青衣), 她囡囡唔識聽中文, 但第一part的老師堅持用中文in她. 我囡囡前年係海帆in, in第一part時老師講明佢會用中文in. 如果要用英文, 可能要事先request或者睇下好唔好彩遇見肯用英文in的老師.

york我上年遇到兩個老師都係中國人, 所以用中文in.

如你自己是講 Cantonese, it is not necessary to buy cantonese tutoring material or flash cards, just speak cantonese to your kid.  Since over 95% of our population speak cantonese, the kid will learn it anyway unless your target is to study in international schools.

問問大家，咁你們教中文會教認字嗎？我仔情況同樓主差不多，大部分物件，顏色，動物也認到英文生字，但中文字除自己個名，其他唔識

放鬆點，就算要開始認中文字都唔需要 K1 未開始就認。

盡量教，教得幾多得幾多。

想請教一下大家，有什麼方法可以同時教小朋友廣東話和英文而不令他們confuse呢？真的唔知應該怎樣教，十分困擾和擔心，請大家教教我。謝謝！

There should be many ways to do it.  Provide below two ways for your reference:

1.  Daddy and mommy speak different language to the child.  The key of this method is consistency, i.e. Daddy only speaks to child in one language, mommy only speaks to child in another language.  I use this method and my children have very good translation skill now.  This method can be quite painful for parents if they need to speak a non-native language.

2.  The English teacher said that the parents should have a small section with the child only to speak English.  During that section, the parent should create some sort of "symbol" to indicate that this is the English section.  Examples of "symbol" can be a funny T-shirt, a pair of funny eye glasses, a funny hat, etc.  So, whenever the parents put on the funny T-shirt, then the child knows that this is the English section and he/she is expected only to speak English.  After completion of the English section, the parents can put away the funny T-shirt and then everything can be back to normal (i.e. speak Cantonese).  The key of this method is persistency.  The kids may not know what is going on in the first few rounds, but the parents should continue demonstrating to the kids that they are expected only to speak English during this English section.  The frequency of this English section can be daily or several times a week.

樓主, 如果廣東話係你嘅mother tongue, 點解仲要買教材去教你小朋友廣東話呢? 無論學咩語言都好, 多聽多講先係學習各種語言嘅最好工具.

Thank you for the detailed information!

Wanabe: I found that my son is more concentrated and he will listen to what I say when we are doing something together like reading books, playing games, watching cartoons, etc. But, when I talk to him casually, especially when speaking Cantonese, he tends to ignore me.

Hoihoima: Thanks for the detail information. 想請教一下，如果一套卡通片，有時比佢睇英文，有時比佢睇廣東話，其實係好唔好㗎呢？

我阿女兩歲前都係只識得好少廣東話（街街、打打），後來轉做FTM後主力教返廣東話，所以過程係又中又英的，佢明英文所以我先講英文再用廣東話講多次，所以我用左半年時間教，勉強可以應付K1 interview，同時佢亦有返緊PN，頭兩個月日日咸，因唔明廣東話，淨係成曰同個NET 玩。
而家3歲啦，見到外藉人仕講英文，同黃種人講中文，但你用英文問，佢就用英文答，不過真係用左一年時間呀。

KV 好似冇得request Eng  IN，佢地比較重視中文

vnghk0001:請問在這一年的過程中她會唔會覺得有啲confuse呢？我自己唔係FTM，我個仔現在剛開始讀國際班PN(冇廣東話堂的）,他十一月就要in K1了，只有兩個月時間，究竟我應唔應該現在開始主攻他廣東話呢。我只怕時間不夠，在過度期時interview啲廣東話和英文攪亂晒，連可以用英文in的都攪禍晒。真的很煩惱，請大家比啲意見。

佢冇confuse ，真係要多講先得，一日要重複幾次。
