老師冇問過我地同阿女問題
只是在旁觀察
阿女都肯玩，都有自己講嘢
我見老師都冇乜問其他人嘢

我覺得如果老師淨係係後面觀察好弔詭。有d玩具你根本係自己玩。例如puzzle, 如果你隻隻字讀比小朋友聽好似好做作，唔出聲老師又評估唔到你英語能力。

幾好呀！d老師好nice,問小朋友既野都好傾計。其中一個老師剩係問我小朋友讀梗乜同平時講咩語言。同小朋友講一兩句甘。我囡冇咩講野。自己係甘玩。反而d家長狂講野好搞笑。

Actually that is what parents should do. If their children are too engrossed in playing by themselves, the parents would need to do all the talking. The teachers don't expect the children to be chatterboxes because most children at that age are pretty quiet, but they do need to assess if the children could understand and respond to an English conversation. So what you saw might seem funny but it was the right thing to do.

Has anyone else been to the school before the play session? I'm still not sure about the teaching style and whether I could feel any warmth from the teaching staff.....any comments from you all?

Teaching style is relaxed and children learn at their own pace, "warmth" would depend on individual teachers, some are more enthusiastic than others. Overall the children love it because there is "a lot of play and no learning", which is the exact comment from my daughter who studied there before. By the time she was in ESF Y1 she was comparatively behind because some of her classmates were from non-ESF kindergartens which were a bit more "pushy" in academics, but by Y2 everyone was at more or less at the same level.

If you trust ESF and never try to compare your child with other children, then you will feel relaxed too, but if you're concerned with comments like "How come your child still can't do this / doesn't know this?" from relatives and friends then ESF may not be the right choice.

That kind of teaching style is fine by me. I'm more concerned that the teachers may not be very attentive to the students as I heard they tend only to observe and advise the parents if there are any issues of the child but they don't actually do anything to help resolve them?
