I had same experiences, family speak English & Hokkien only at home, it was a struggle coping with Chinese. But like you, will send my daughter to Chinese pre school and observe from there (hubs also banana)😂 Fighter is really brave to voice out, hope he adapts well in his new school!

I had a similar experience with Fighter: I went to SJKC, is from an English-speaking family, and I had undiagnosed ADHD (only found out recently in my late 20s). School was, in a nutshell, extremely challenging, and it didn't help that both my teachers and my family didn't have the awareness to maybe seek some professional advice for my struggles with homework and understanding.

I worked in an IGCSE learning centre for a year, and I realized that their project-based learning would've been so much more helpful for me as a child, so I have no doubt that Fighter will flourish in his new school!
