I have the same question like yours. My son is 4 years old, too, and he seems not to have talent in languages in general. When he reach age 5, I will send him to some English classes to get acquainted with English.

Nice to hear that all you here have a 4 year old's beloved one as i Have, lol

 

[Lady Bee]

Same age Ah no, more than 4 years olds

So, You 're a female bee? Male bee looks for honey, Female bee looks for what?

Woa, that why your English so smooth and quite nice structure. You've have your own rule for your farmily already, can you suggest me what is the best way to teach a girl 4 years old in E. That is my daught, she always watch on youtube some E cartoon and the way she pronunciate is quite cute. How to improve her E?

My office locates in the same building with an English course center so I often see an English teacher around during smoking time. One day I asked him the same questions as you guys did. He truly advised me not to teach or talk to my son in English regardless of how good I'm at English. And I think that's true. We'd better send our kids to good English center providing education services by native speakers.

Totally agree!
Send them to the English native speaker class would be the best option!
Even my son now, sometimes he correct my pronunciation as he claim its wrong! We can talk to them but please do not judge, let the teacher do!

Some have asked about how I teach my son! Actually, he learnt it from his school and friends

The story of my son learning English for somebody might be too aggressive with pain and tear but we had done it well!
In 2008, my son was 2.5 yrs old, I have granted an Australian Award(former Australian Development Scholarship) for Master degree at University of Sydney. At the moment, his Vietnamese was still not so good and no English at all. We had several choices: send him to a Vietnamese based childcare; Uni childcare or Council childcare without Vietnamese staff!
After visiting some childcare, we thought that he might learn English better in an English native environment such as Council childcare. So we had registered him in the council one - closed to our rented house!
The first three months were painful: my son could not communicate with others; he became aggressive and even fight other over toys and tools. My son cried and my wife did too, but the teacher there still believed that they can help him! And after 3 months, he could understand simple context and then he learnt very quickly: after 6 months, he even interpreted the kid conversation to us!

When we came back VN, the first month, he couldn't speak Vietnamese to grandparents but he drop the language also quickly as learning it! Now, we are trying to maintain his English by English only period everyday!

Very good experience for your son and your family. Btw, now you stay in VN permanently or got another plan to go abroad again?

Still thinking about moving back to Oz but it's a long term plan!
At this moment, we are concentrating in our own biz(www.9-foods.com) and saving money for that plan, mate!

You're right, bro. just like men and women. Human is a kind of animal and respect the same nature rule

 

[GiannoV]

You put a smile on my face, thanks haha. I'm back to work now.

Back to work at 2:16 pm, did you take ice-cream at noon?

 

[jelena]

Back to work at 2:16 pm, did you take ice-cream at noon?

Nope, I start working at 1.30 but I allowed myself to slack a bit, going to otofun and fb. Then I had to be back to work or else my boss would fire me

 

[fordka]

Feeling exited since the threat is quite active now. It's because the appearance of some beautiful (I supposed) ladies. Oh, some pro-E speaking gents as well.
Besides normal talks, you guys may thought your questions here in case you are looking for some advice. Some bros like GiannoV, longsd, etc. will help you.
longsd, you took your testamur at UTS or USyd?

I did study short course of English in USYD at arrival; but the Ielts exam I tooked at UTS due to the exam in USYD was full!
After the Ielts exam, I had got 6.5 enough for my Master requirement at USYD!

I have a idea for this thread. Consider as a game, the principle as below:

1. Register for member: No limit number of member.

2. We all choose a topic together, and a member have to write about it first (Al least 30 sentences).

3. Everyone can comment and make argument just for fun and understanding each other.

4. The first member can point next people and topic (whatever subject he want).

5. Turn this method for everyone.

How about your opinion for this idea????
