我小朋友SC畢業，係小數完全無校外學術補習，考7間，有三間offer , 最後叩入英津小。當然每個小朋友能力， ...

mine 2, from SC, 完全無校外學術補習，無讀 P1 interview classes

考7間，有5間offer (incl my dream school).






my kid spent 4-5 hrs per day watching TV and playing online games.  

during interview period (abt 5-6 mths), I trained her myself.

chinese - do copy book (i make for her). read her a few pages of chinese book each day, ensure she knew how to read all words. if she cldn't remember, make her write those words until she knew how to read. make many chinese cards for her to read, she drew on the card and made english 'ping yin' herself

english- no need to train as her native is english. she is reading shakespeare, charles dickens by herself. however, her spelling is not always perfect. for simple words like rainbow, television, concentrate, school, teacher she never gets wrong.

chinese and english- sentence reassemble which I made up for her. each sentence 5-6 groups.

maths- i made up 20-30 maths questions for her to do daily, incl times. 25-9+10, 77-13, 5x3+25 etc. teach her how to read a clock (not only half past, but 12.05, 21.10 etc). ask her draw a clock herself and ask her draw needles for the clock based on the time I gave her (e.g. 3.25).

I consolidated all the questions which I found from BK (thanks for the generous BK members who posted them), over 250 of them. I asked her these questions until she could answer swiftly.  

teach her to tell 2 stories each in english and cantonese. this took her/me for a long time esp cantonese.  teach her stories from Aesop's Fables which I think is more meaningful.

I spent 20 mins daily with her asking her questions, and another 30 mins for her to do worksheets I made for her.

I think last but not the least, personality and performance are very important.  

I always bring her to jumping gym which she loves as a reward :)

你0甘识教，重劲过外面D增润课程，当然不用在外面补习啦。

但现在是讲到，是不是全靠SC的课程就掂嘛。。。

SC syllabus is very good and advanced esp K3.  I am sure if the kid listens and learns at school getting 2-3 offers is an easy job. my girl needs to pay extra effort in cantonese as she started to learn cantonese only in K2 and I only targeted top primary schools.

SC chinese homework is difficult even sometimes I don't know how to do it.

你讲得无错，SC的家长所target的学校，都是名校，所以自己和同侪的压力都很大的。

相反，宣道的家长可能就是一心想升宣小，另外的直资和津贴学校都是辅助，所以心态不同，也导致压力低一点，表现上没有那么进取。

I think both are good kinder. I don't know how to choose if I have these 2 offers (I didn't apply for APS kinder for my girl). APS has primary backup which is v tempting.

You put in so much thought and tailor it to your child's specific needs.  Really well done.


I should copy your ways.

Saves a lot of time rushing here and there for extra classes.

真正嘅因材施教，home schooling也沒問題吧！

I believe with your training in family, like teaching P1 second term maths etc , it doesn't matter which kindergarten your kid go, he/ she can still get many offers from good schools!

I never gave my kid any addition academic exercise, we just sent her sport n art class n we did revision with my kid only 2-3 wk before assessment. We read together n play games like educational card games, Rummikub etc every day , sometimes brought her down to clubhouse play room to play or go to supermarket for a walk.

Although my kid is not studying at 神級school , my kid can still got top 3 in last Sem. we have No private tutor or join any Kumon Enopi etc. we just check homework for our kid every night n make sure our kid understand the homework

有朋友仔現已中一，佢仔年代Sc冇咁激嘅。後來学校見学生考小一成績麻麻，所以近年 target 幫学生考小一

Did he get in by first round allocation? lucky draw or final knock door?
