A parent accompanied class for an hour plus with a max of 8 students to 2 teachers ratio. There will be different words taught each week based on a specific theme. Simple one word recognition. The children favorite part would be the singing and action. The songs are a mixture of popular nursery rhymes and some I have never heard before but easy to learn and catchy too. Some songs will be repeated at each lesson so that the child can get familiar with them and be able to eventually remember and sing along. There will be time for art and craft as well related to the theme that lesson and story telling session where the teachers would sometimes use puppet for dramatizing purpose. The teachers are native speaking and speak good mandarin.
My son started mandarin tots at serene centre when he was 18 months old. I decided to expose him early to mandarin since we do not speak much of mandarin at home. It is not an easy language to pick up and with so many Chinese characters to recognize. The class had many songs and actions and games as they learn each Chinese character each week. It's a good thing that it is a parent accompanied class as we can bond and learn Chinese together.
As a mom of a preteen, I regretted not exposing my daughter to mandarin since day one. So with my no 2, signing her up for mandarin programme is a no brainer. As 老师mentioned in class, children best pick up languages in the first 3 years of their lives. My daughter loves her chinese teachers as well as English teachers at Bibinogs. The two programmers are entirely different. There is theme of the week, we go through songs, crafts, 子卡 relating to the themes. There is also 汉语拼音session and my dragon girl can recite it off while bathing. Parents must remember no enrichment centre is a 仙丹where you swollow a miraculous pill and your kid can rattle chinese effortlessly. We had a fun and unforgettable year with 吴老师and 项老师。Right now, with new teachers, the synergy is different but good is a different way. My 3 years old is now a confident mandarin speaker who can converse with her chinese educated grandparents effortlessly thanks to 老师们。
