Wider World Workshop, is it good?

Could anyone tell me whether this workshop is good? Any better choice for learning Chinese and Mandarin?  My son is attending P.1 in Shatin Junior, we are living in fanling, any good school nearby?  My son is also studying in Genesis for Chineses, is it good enough.

Please advice.

My son is in SJS P.2.  He has been attending the Cantonese speaking Chinese classes from Wider World Workshop since the beginning of P1.  So far so good, and it saved us in travelling time

Re: Wider World Workshop, is it good?

Thank you for your reponse.  

Could you tell me more:
- The teacher-student ratio
- Any homework
- The standard compare with local school
- Is it popular among students studying in SJS?

Re: Wider World Workshop, is it good?

Teacher to student ratio is about 1 : 8
Kids need to partice writing Chinese characters at home, will start to have dictation in the Spring term.
I will say it is about 1 year behind the standard of a local school, since our kids are already in P.1 at the age of 5.
Not sure if it is popular.

The above applies to the Catonese speaking Chinese classes only.  Not sure about the Mandarin.

Ask Mr. Ku to show you the text book they use and you will then have an idea.

hi Dommom,

My daughter is studying in international kindergarten now. I am considering to let her learn chinese too. Does "Wider World workshop" offer any program for kindergarten's student? Can you let me know the contact no.?
Did you let your son to learn Chinese before he goes to primary school? or he just start to learn Chinese once he is in P1?

Re: Wider World Workshop, is it good?

No, they only offer Chinese classes for kids starting at the age of 5, which should be in P.1 in ESF schools.  My son already started to learn Chinese when he was in kindie.  Phone number is 23390675.

Hi Alex/Dommom,

My daughter (now P2 SJS) attended WW workshop in P1 last year.   I think the Cantonese is too simple for her because she studied in local kindergarten.   Maybe the standard for kids who study in international kindergarten.   Anyway, she joined Genesis since last summer and she is in S6 class (which is 1 year behind than local school).   I quite like their story-telling approach at Genesis as she knows how to read a lot of Chinese character and she is doing composition now even they don't have lots of homework or dictation at all.  My daughter enjoys going there.

There are 4 kids I know from P2 are going to S6 classes at Genesis.

Rgds,
Aling

Re: Wider World Workshop, is it good?

Dommom,

Thank you for your reply.

Aling,

May I know where is Genesis? Do they offer Chinese class for kindergarten's students?

Alex,

May I know when did you let your kid learn Chinese? From P1 or start from kindergarten? As I am thinking if I just let her my daughter to learn Chinese in P1, she might hard to catch up the standard.

Can anyone share with me your experience?

Re: Wider World Workshop, is it good?

cpmummy,

Last year my son was studying in Creative Primary School's Kindergarten, I don't need to focus on his Chinese, I have spent lot of time to polish up his English.  He has been studying in Genesis, http://www.societyofgenesis.com.hk, for more than   one year.  My question is whether I should let him studying in Gensis or switch to Wider World Workshop.  Many parents said Genesis helps their children recognising more Chinese characters and it is fun.  It provides course for children starting from one year old. My comment for genesis is above average, may not be the best.

I also want to know which school/tutor is good for teaching Mandarin.

Regards.
