…Wait a minute, please don’t worry! Let’s analyze the reasons first~ Only by finding out the reasons why children don’t like learning mandarin can we prescribe the right medicine!
I interviewed some parents before~
Q: What is the reason why children can’t learn mandarin well?
A1: Can’t learn mandarin well, it must be because he didn’t work hard enough!
A2: The teacher has taught he the knowledge, and the learning lies in the individual! Other children in the class can learn mandarin well, why can’t he learn mandarin well?
……
That’s right, learning mandarin really requires you to work harder; Teachers have taught you the knowledge in class; So you really need to memorize and recite the content carefully after class! But “Interest is the best teacher in learning”, if a child has no interest in learning mandarin at all, how can she learn mandarin well?
“Mom, I thought mandarin was quite interesting before, but after I took this teacher’s mandarin class, I don’t want to learn mandarin anymore;Mandarin is too boring”!! said Lisa……
A director of a private Chinese department in Silicon Valley once said:“it is very normal for overseas children not to want to learn mandarin. After reading many courses in mandarin schools, she wanted to scold: What a fool! You may not be able to imagine that even in Silicon Valley, the teaching method of many Chinese schools is to ask kindergarten children to silently write 《弟子规》 and copy 《三字经》.
Take a look at how children aged 3-8 in China learn English now – Online education companies are so competitive in various situational immersive animations and real-life lessons from foreign teachers. Is there anyone still learning foreign languages by copying words and memorizing texts by rote?
1.We lack the output of soft culture in the general environment, which is not fun or cool.
2.Just as many foreign teachers in China can’t teach English, many Chinese in the United States can’t teach either, and they only work part-time. But for children, in the most precious stage of 3-8 years old, they can’t teach mandarin. The love for mandarin is likely to be stifled.
So now do you still think that it is the children’s own fault that the they cannot learn mandarin well?
Okay, I heard some people start asking: ”So if that’s the case, may I confirm is there a best way to learn mandarin online free for kids?
Of course!
1.Courses should be attractive enough and funny!
When talking about Chinese culture overseas, most foreigners think of “Chinese Kung Fu”, “Dragon and Lion Dance”, “Shaolin Temple”… Yes, these are all authentic Chinese elements! But the children are not interested in it, they like more trendy things；
They like browsing bilibili website, Douyin and other social media……In our Sino-Bus’ mandarin online class, teachers will play some Chinese movies that are more in line with the tastes of young people.
Children can immerse themselves in learning mandarin; There will be many activities and games related to mandarin in the class, and the children will not feel boring at all. Several months ago, they need to learn a text about the 12 zodiac signs. Before the class, the teacher played a section of “The Twelve Signs of the Zodiac” starring Jackie Chan to the students; the students were very focused in that class, and everyone was listening carefully; The bell rang for the end of class, no one came out of the classroom, and the idea was still unfinished！！
2.Teachers need to teach well!
The preschool Chinese market is mixed, and almost anyone who can speak Chinese can be taught. Parents are often limited to schools that are close to home. They think it is the best way to learn mandarin online free for kids.
Most of these teachers are temporary, and some of them are international students themselves. The teaching does not consider whether it is suitable for the age of the students, or whether it is acceptable or not as a second language.
Some of my students told me that in the Chinese class when they were young, the teacher gave the students answers for the sake of their test scores, or didn’t care about watching them cheat.
Until now, in the Chinese class in Silicon Valley, overseas Chinese students in kindergartens have just started learning Chinese, and they still memorize various characters by rote. For example, the word card below, don’t you feel a headache?
