LINGOBUS lessons are interactive and focus on speaking and listening With the new vocabulary, Kai learned to to describe a sequence of events using “先。。。然后。。。最后 ” which was very useful. Kai first started Lingobus on the “ Go Camping” unit where he learned, through Lingbus’ interactive animations and teacher’s storytelling, everything from what to pack for a camping trip to things like starting a fire with a magnifying glass! It was precisely a fun unit because Kai has never gone camping before, so he was fascinated by the world he was immersed in during the 30 min lesson.Īlthough it was a ‘camping themed unit’, it was still flexible enough in that basic words, expressions and structures could be taught. Lingobus’ theme-based units provide a fun and meaningful way to learn about the world in Chinese! Each theme is designed so that it focuses on core vocabulary, key phrases and expressions that are emphasised throughout the unit. In this blog post, I will describe my experience with LINGOBUS and what I like about it: LINGOBUS lessons are organised in thematic units: PART 2 of my post on KoalaKnow is finally finished > here The results of having Kai gone online to learn Chinese are beyond what I had expected. I even purchased separate packages from two major Chinese learning platforms: Lingobus and KoalaKnow, in the hopes that Kai can keep up with his Chinese during the lockdown. Online piano lessons, art classes, writing tutorials, language learning courses… parents are now discovering a wide array of educational opportunities they never paid attention to before.ĭuring Singapore’s ‘circuit breaker’ when schools and learning centres were closed for 3 months, I tested and trialed a few online platforms that opened my eyes to how e-learning has evolved. While parents used to question the effectiveness and necessity of e-learning, they have now resorted to actively search for online platforms that could support their child’s learning at home. If there is anything positive from COVID-19, one might be that parents are starting to be more open-minded about online learning options.
