From language to social skills, participants picked up useful tips at the Young Parents’ Expert Series 2017 Preschool Workshop.
It was back to school for some mums and dads on April 8 as they gathered in Sheraton Towers Singapore for Young Parents’ Expert Series 2017 Preschool Workshop. From learning how to improve their child’s memory to developing reading skills, here are the highlights of our seminar.
1 Dr Richard Yen, founder of Ednovation, explained how preschoolers can learn to recognise Chinese words rapidly by using shapes and roots related to each character. Parents also sang along to rhymes and heard how stories could enhance the language learning.
2 Aside from the workshop, parents had the opportunity to discover more about our partners, such as Heguru Method Learning Centre, at the booths next door. Agnes Ng, the centre’s principal, shared her strategies for using fl ash cards to boost your child’s memory.
3 Maureen Donelly, senior teacher at Lorna Whiston Schools, showed parents how to help their kids master English using phonics.
4 Matthew Scott, head of preschool courses at the British Council Singapore, ended the workshop with interactive English games to teach participants how to help their little ones read with confidence.
