Yours sincerely,

My cousin Li Ming is a senior three student, who devoted himself to his lessons every day. Last Saturday, as usual, he went to several class. In the evening, he continued to study at home until deeply into the night. He was too sleepy and tired that he couldn’t work effectively. In Sunday morning, he was about to do his lessons while his father came up and advised him to take a break. Soon they came up a good idea. They decided to go cycling in the countryside. Li Ming enjoyed himself competing and chatting with his father and felt relaxing in the open air. On Monday, Li Ming was energetic and active in class. He spent a whole day in the country, and Li Ming said what he had done was worth.
As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart all of the things that he needs to become a responsible, respectful adult. 1. A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others, but also learns to respect himself as well.
Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to
respect others. Listen to your child by giving him your full attention and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.
2. The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely
he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
Agree to disagree. 3. Explain your decision so that he will understand your
reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn’t equate to disobedience.
Control your impulse to overact. When a situation arises between you and your
child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modelling correct behaviour. 4.
Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to
correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough. 5.
A. Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.
B. Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you.
C. Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.
D. If he sees you lose temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
E. A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.
F. When you see your child exhibit respectful behaviour, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
G. Setting a good example is the best way to start a child on the path to respect.
Tree House
The Tree House program is for students with an English or bilingual preschool background. Foreign teachers further develop students’ natural English speaking skills from 1st through 6th grades in a total immersion environment. The program is theme-based with different units or themes per semester. Each unit includes a theme-related storybook, song, dialogue, writing and phonic exercises, grammar component, poem, and integrated activities.
Step Ahead
Step Ahead is a standalone course that takes children in 3rd grade with no prior English knowledge and by 6th grade, transforms them into confident, near-fluent English communicators. Our program has a strategic balance of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Regular lessons are broken into phonics, reading, grammar patterns, conversation, songs, and homework preview
