Mandarin is one of the four languages spoken in Singapore, and is one of the most popular mother tongue subjects among students. There are many benefits to learning this Chinese language, as it is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. Having an additional language will equip your child with an added advantage, whether in their academic or professional lives.
At MindSpace, we have built the best Chinese enrichment class in Singapore, offering your child a pathway to mastering this language with our proprietary learning methods. Our after school programmes incorporate enrichment activities for all the primary school subjects, with Chinese being one of them.
Journey with us as we discover what makes our MindSpace Chinese enrichment classes stand out.
Our Innovative Duo Teaching Approach
MindSpace students enjoy the benefit of having not one, but two subject content experts for each subject, including for the Chinese language. This includes an after-school, personal in classroom subject specialist teacher and a Head of Department Subject Head which will be live online during lessons. The added expertise of not one, but two Chinese language experts will ensure that your child obtains the best form of guidance.
A Champion Mindset Approach
MindSpace introduces each child to the Champion Mindset way. We have worked with celebrated neuroscientist Emeritus Professor Alan Snyder to identify the key attributes of successful individuals in the fields of Business, Politics, the Arts, Sports and Science. Your child will be exposed to these mindsets through the 3-Minds approach, so that they will be able to have a learning mind, a champion mind and a creative mind. When these values are combined, they will develop a more resilient approach towards learning and reach their full potential.
Consolidating the Basics of Chinese Literacy
At the lower primary school level, we focus on ensuring that your child’s Chinese fundamentals are strengthened so that they will be more capable of learning more advanced words and concepts later on. These activities include learning hanyu pinyin with the latest methods, consolidating basic writing techniques including various strokes and structures, and understanding various Chinese radicals and how words are formed.
Expanding Chinese Vocabulary
At MindSpace, your child will be exposed to various Chinese literatures, including books, poetry and idioms in order to raise an awareness and love of the language. These activities will also serve to expand their grasp of the language. Our Memory Treasure Box approach helps them learn Chinese idioms and proverbs, so that they may apply these into their everyday writing. With various interactive methods, your child will be able to effectively learn new words and apply them accurately and appropriately.
In Summary
Chinese remains one of the core subjects in primary school, and is one of the subjects your child will have to sit for during their PSLEs. Therefore, it is crucial to allow them a strong start and foundation as early as possible. At MindSpace, we offer much more than just after-school care. Each week, your child will be able to benefit from our enrichment programmes, which focus on all the core primary school subjects as well as effective learning strategies.
