[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were in a similar situation -- but in our case it was deciding whether to send our child to a spanish immersion program.  We are now several years into the program and haven't regretted our decision.  Simply put, we wanted our child to attend the immersion program in order to help her become fluent in a language from our cultural background.  Because we work full time, we have found the immersion program to work best because she is exposed to the language more hours of the day than we would be able to provide.  We have found this consistent exposure to have helped her fluency.  As a previous poster suggested, however, it would be helpful for you to speak with parents of some actual participants in the Chinese Immersion program.[/quote]

Op here. Thank you for this feedback. I appreciate it.

There are multitudes of Chinese schools on the weekend. I just thought why not do it during regular school hours and free up the weekend for nonacademic stuff. Also immersion could be a challenge in itself and it could be good for a smart child.

I need to think about this more.  [/quote]
