One Malaysian guy said ‘How can you teach Maths
and Science in English to pupils who don’t understand
English when they first come to school?’
as reported in The Star.
What a silly statement!!
Hey dude, when I attended school in Standard One
few decades ago, did I know a word of English?
No. I didn’t know a single word, and at that point
in time nobody spoke English in my house.
The children will have to learn English in whatever ways
the sooner the better. This is what LEARNING is all about.
For the children‘s sake, please understand
that English is important and vital for them to
be able to compete globally and not be left out
later in their working lives.
