Hi all,


I am part of a group of tutors who run foreign-language playgroups. We have had success with our French and German groups, and are thinking of launching a Mandarin group in the East Dulwich/Peckham area if there is sufficient interest.


In line with our current groups, it would be led by a native speaker and trained tutor, and would be very relaxed and friendly. We would like to welcome parents with all levels of Mandarin, but with circle time tailored to those just starting out with the language so that they can learn songs, rhymes and chants alongside their little ones and practice at home if they wish.


It would be amazing to have your thoughts on the group - is it something that would be of interest? Are there specific things that you would like/hate to see included? Where and when would be good in terms of venue and time? Any feedback would be awesome!


Many thanks in advance,

Lucy

Hi Lucy

We would definitely be interested for our 4 year old who starts school in September (so midweek school hours wouldn't be good for us). He's got quite a bit of mandarin vocab (from living previously in Singapore), which we're trying to maintain. Would be keen to keep in touch with you about your playgroup idea. Thanks

Hi Jellybeanse,


I've replied to the others on the thread in individual PMs, sorry! We haven't quite had the interest we would need to set up a playgroup just yet so we've put the idea on hold for the time being. We'd love to hear from anyone who has an interest in learning Mandarin though, and would be very happy to run a smaller, more bespoke group if there was interest. You can find us at www.struckfluent.com.


Many thanks!

Lucy

    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
