Since we (me and my mom) are not that happy with how Bela’s trial class went at Early Achievers, we decided to visit Child Preschool along Tomas Morato after our visit at EALC.
We arrived at Child school a little before 12 noon so the class has just finished but we were greeted by the warm smiles of the teachers when we entered the school grounds. Teacher Duckie (the teacher handling the juniors class, where Bela will belong next year) entertained us right away and she introduced us to Teacher Rosanne (School Director).
Teacher Rosanne explained to us the curriculum of Child Preschool. They are a progressive school also like Toddlers Unlimited but their difference is that they have worksheet time. They have a thematic style of teaching so every month; their lesson is centered on a particular topic. They also have a field trip every month to highlight everything that has been discussed for the whole month. They also have a 20 minutes Chinese lesson per day. I like this better than the style of EALC for their Chinese class. Because for me, the Chinese lesson will just be an elective for the kids and not like in EALC where it looks like Chinese is really their emphasis. Since we are not Chinese, this is a better setup since I just like Bela to learn an additional language which will give her an advantage but at the same time, I still don’t like it to be a major subject for her since she will not really have a need for it since we will not enroll her to a Chinese school when it is time for her to go to big school. Currently they have 8 students for the junior class with one teacher and they accept a maximum of 12 students per class (their teacher to student ratio is a little low compared to Toddlers Unlimited).
Teacher Rosanne explained everything very well that we did not have any questions after her explanation. So far after Teacher Rosanne’s explanation, we like their curriculum and Child is really on our short list for Bela’s school this coming school year. I will schedule a trial class for Bela next week to see how she will respond to the class and to see for ourselves how their normal day at class goes then we will decide after that.
