[quote=Anonymous][quote]Because I have a strong urge for my kids to do better, be better and have greater options than my husband and I had. Our son's great at languages and it is a good fit for him. We supplement at home by hiring a Chinese tutor. I have his homework translated for me so that I can help him. I learn as much Chinese as possible to support him, too. I don't make ANY attempt to pronounce or correct pronunciation, but I help with reading, comprehension, math and things like that. I hope that I can keep up for the next few years, at which point we will rely more on the after school homework classes and tutors. It is a lot like needing tutors to supplement for any other class, but usually people don't need those until middle and high school. We'll just be using them longer. Middle or high school to start a new language is too late in most cases. That is especially true for level four, tonal languages. [/quote] interesting...is your kid having any fun?[/quote]
