Use Of ICT Tools To Promote Interest In Learning Mother Tongue 2021
Our Chinese Department offers a variety of language and cultural activities to engage the students actively in the learning of Chinese. We are pleased to share that our HOD Mother Tongue, Mdm Tan Chiu Lin, was recently featured in Lianhe Zaobao on 21 Feb 2021 for her passion in instilling joy and promoting interest in the learning of Chinese. Through joy of learning, many students develop strong interest in their Mother Tongue. They are given the opportunity to take up Higher Chinese at Primary five level to realise their potential.
Learning Difficulty Helps Graduand Better Understand, Connect With Students
We would like to congratulate our teacher, Ms Kleinman who was recently featured on Channel News Asia and in Lianhe Zao Bao for her creative teaching tools used in her English and Social Studies lessons.
She is a role model of resilience. Through overcoming a learning difficulty as a child, she understands that each child is unique and learns in various ways. From her personal experience, she tries to engage her students using innovative and fun educational strategies, such as incorporating puppetry and songs, into her lessons. Her educational philosophy is to live out and impart her educational mission, “Always learning in heart and mind.” She is an inspiration to our students.
