I've also heard tat Tien Hsia has lots of homework and worksheets to complete. My P1 gal goes to Berries @ Bukit Batok. Before entering Berries, her chinese is almost non existent. But after 5-mths can see really vast improvements. Can recognise quite abit of chinese characters. Only issue is tat becos she attends English Phonics classes, she tends to get confused between HYPY and Phonics. For example: the word 'Ke(3) Ai(4)', she will write as 'Ce Ai' cos the letter C in phonics sounds like K in HYPY. *faintz*
