She nearly didn't remeber any English, before she came to OZ. When she came OZ , she was in year 2, she straight stayed with local students, didn't go to language school. But she likes reading. Within one year she had read more 300 books, from very simple books to more 200 pages fairy story( not many picture). she finished year 2 and 3 within one year(last year). This year, she's in year 4. She had read Harry Potter I,II,III,VI and V(original edition). I let her to stop for a while and let her read some Chinese books before read VI and VII.Next year, she will be in year 5, but she's just 9 years old.
I still think Chinese is a big problem for those very young kids who come to English country. She already has some Chinese problems. Sometimes she couldn't understand Chinese properly. So let your kid learn Chinese as much as possible before coming to OZ.
