Parent Workshop – The Ways Young Students Learn at BIS

On October 14th, Ms. Emma Shang, our EY Senior Manager, gave a Parent Workshop on the theme of The Ways Young Students Learn at BIS. With an introduction video, the presentation began with how children spent one day at BIS EY Center, i.e. the environment they are studying in, the resources they access to learn and samples of daily schedule, etc.

Afterwards, Ms. Shang also gave parents some guidance about how to communicate effectively with their children. Parents highly resonated with the topic and even involved some spontaneous discussions.

The next Parent Workshop session will be held on October 21st, presented by our DP Coordinator Mr. Matt Kirk on the theme of the Core of IBDP.
