[quote=Anonymous]Yu Ying parent here. We love the school. No Chinese at home. No extra support. That was never the idea for us, as I think that nobody will ever learn a language by just going to an immersion school. But being at Yu Ying gives the kids the opportunity to develop an ear for Chinese (tonal language -- completely different from Spanish!). If they want to really learn it later, they will have an easier time and will be able to speak it like a native. Plus a second (or third or fourth) language is good for brain development. Also: don't ask on DCUM for advice on enrolling. You don't know their agenda when they answer. A lot of people saying "Don't" could be on the waiting list waiting for a spot to become available..
