Dear mtb999,

Thanks Kimba for your reply....yet I am so sorry that I didnt put down much details.
I would like to see some programs for kids 6 years old and below, more to brain stimulation rather than kindergarten or Montessori Program.
I planned to go Melbourne and Brisbane, yet if there any other states that offering such a program, it worth me to pay a visit too.
Please advice, thanks!

Please advice, thanks!

Dear mmom,
Totally agreed with what you said!!!!
You know what, I did have such experience where the parent scolded her child in front of me and the child just sob without any action yet the mother keep mumbling and the other parents just tried to cover their kid's ears. I felt sad and I really don't know how to confront that parent too. But then, by the end of the lesson, I will hug the kid and whispered to him while the mother just gone and asked the indon mate to come in and pick the kid,  Sad
Many parents signed up the program and they really wanted their kids to be a genius but never know the philosophy of that method itself. Sad thing, right?!
Anyway, thanks for your sharing too!
7  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Sharing session, welcome to give feedback on: October 23, 2009, 05:53:35 AM
I just love the sharing sessions with the parents. I am wondering why they are so focus in these Right Brain Enrichment Programs? Usually the answers used to surprise me a lot!

Most of the parents especially those who come from a wealthy family will give me the reason of “I think this is a program which will be able to make my child to become a genius!”, “we are in a new era; everybody is just emphasizing on these early inputs and early enrichments.”, “So simple, just because they need to learn something instead of being bored sitting at home.” 
This really make me wondered, “Hey, parents! Do you really know what Right Brain Education is? Is it a Genius-trained Program? Is it a program where you can just let your child to kill his or her free time? ”

Dear parents, it’s not! Right Brain Education is an education of heart.

I do agree that usually most of the right brain education centers are charging very high. This is not because of this program can guarantee your child to become a genius or what; it’s just because of the preparations, the materials, the training it costs, the researches etc. But then, if you carry out at home, then the cost will be lower.

Actually, Right Brain Education is really emphasized on the bonding.

During the training, if you are having a thought of expectation or kind of forcing feeling, surprisingly your child will be able to feel it! Then the whole session will just finish. I believe that some of the parents who are doing this will agree on this too. Some parents they used to say “by heart or by soul, I must flashcard to my baby at least one in a day” But, what happened to that session if you carried out just because of wanted to full fill that duty? Or when you expected them to be perfect in all the memory games, yet the result will be just turn into another way round.

There is a quote from a Right Brain Master Trainer, “Relationships come first”. Parents, please always bear this in your mind.

Let's change the world, thanks!

thanks.

I think there will never be out of topic, reading is a good habit. You are not doing this to make him talk more, I think this will cultivate his reading habit too.

Dear hypatia,
Just would like to share something, not sure whether it will help or not.
How to get started to make your daughter to talk more? You actually can try to talk to her more often with your clear pronunciation, moreover, please let her see how is your mouth movement.
Thanks.

Dear ilima,
You're welcome!! As an educator, we should always supporting each other no matter you are a mother, father or an educator. I always believe in Right Brain training and I do support Shichida Method.
Hope that my info or knowledge will be able to help you. Keep it up.
Thanks.
13  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: More Shichida! on: October 19, 2009, 09:21:20 AM
Dear ilima,
There are a lot of successful stories whereby the mother can teach the kids with Shichida Method by not attending the school. Shichida Method is a method that really emphasize on bonding. You are your kid's best teacher! Believe in yourself, read more book about this method or from Prof. Shichida.

Dear waterdreamer,
There will be never too later since they are still very young!Just that you need to do relaxation exercises before started and make sure you on the alpha wave music along the games.

Thanks.
14  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: Just some words from me, welcome to comment. on: October 17, 2009, 10:51:45 AM
Hi Khatty, thanks!

Dear Nikita,
Let's talk about academic encouragement. I do agreed with you that children love to be praised and they even will work harder after you praised, that's absolutely right! But, some parents, they just misused this magic (praise), they just praise the kids no matter what they done. Sooner, the kids will feel there is no sincerity in praising. They might feel like no matter what I do, my parents still praising me. Like I used to deal with the parents during the games, this kid just simply do and wanted to finish the math within the time given yet he just did it poorly but his parent still praised him "wow, great job!". As I looked at this 5 year-old kid, he was just speechless and had no feeling and just ignored what his parent said, then I told him, "never mind, teacher saw it, let's enjoy the next game and sure you can be better!" One thing I would like to tell is, did the parent actually know what the kid is doing? Was she really paying attention on what her kid is doing or she just day-dreaming? I don't know. But as I quite closed with my student, I know his feeling, he doesn't want to get the praise from his mother, but just a little attention from her.
About lazy kids, yes, this is a very big issue! What parents actually wanted in term of "hardworking" or "lazy"? Finished the homework on time is hardworking? Just focus in school work but no games considered hardworking? Just playing around without reading a book is lazy? Let's think back, why they are not "hardworking"? Are they feeling bored on what they learned? Are they just wanted to focus in games? Or how?
I know that you are in such difficult period of getting your child settle down, do sit back, relax and think back what are the reasons. I am sure the parents here will be able to help you.
Thanks.

Dear ilima,
According to Prof. Shichida that kids under 3 years old are always in the alpha wave, mean you don't need to do anything to make your child relax. Moreover, energy is kind of positive statement for the kid, it's good to practice that before you start the games.
What did you mean by Math Flashcards Momory? is it 65 days program?
How many session is depends on how much you do for  your kid. Inputs can be given no matter when, no really need to be sit down, open a book and show him the things.
Hope you get what I mean, thanks.
