We enjoyed the way the lessons were conducted in the classroom. We found the Chinese students to be very polite. They dared to ask questions and were very focused in class. There is much we can learn from their attitude towards learning.
We were warmly received by the students. When they come and visit us, I would want to be just as welcoming.
During the Chinese lesson in the computer lab:
- While we used Hanyu Pin Yin, they used a different form of word recognition.
- To keep the lab clean, they put on a home-made dust bag over their shoes.
- There were times when we were not able to understand their Mandarin because of the accent and the speed in which they spoke.
- During the Art lesson in the lab, we were really impressed by the way they blend colours.
- The music lesson was an eye opener. The children were able to pick up the song so easily even though it was the first time they were singing it.
