Keatkeat: “Mummy, does Binbin always get all correct for his ting-xie (Chinese Spelling)?”

Me: “No, not always.”

Keatkeat: “No wonder! I know the reason why already.”

Me: “Why?”

Keatkeat: “His teacher did not give him time to look through before she starts to give ting-xie. So I told him to look through his ting-xie words during the short break time between every lesson, since his Chinese is not the first lesson.”

Me: “Good Advice!”

Keatkeat: “I also know how to help him remember the ting-xie words better. Can I give him ting-xie? So you can take a break? Wahhhh… I feel like I am Luo-Lao-Shi (teacher Loh).”

Me (laughed): “Sure! Go!”

After a few minutes….

Binbin: “Mummy! I don’t want GorGor to teach me ting-xie!”

Me: “Why?”

Binbin: “He keep saying ‘Try your best. You can do it.’ I don’t like! Very irritating!”

*Huge Laugh*
