12. Frequently Asked Questions

13. You will make the same presentation with or without your parents witnessing. The teachers will be there to listen to you, give you the support and encouragement. If my parents are not attending, do I still have to make the presentation?

14. You Form Teacher will discuss with your parents for an alternative time for you to present, and the session will not have time limit. Your DC/ADC may be the co-teacher. What if I am on MC on the day that I am supposed to present?

15. Find a classmate to swop your slot and & inform your Form Teacher. (Please do so early). If cannot swap with anyone, then inform your 3 rd Language teacher to get excused from 3rd Lang lesson. What if I have 3 rd language that clashes with the SLF?

16. Choose the language that your parents are comfortable with. We have paired the teachers so that they will be at least one who can speak mandarin well and one speaks English well. It’s the chance to put your CQ skills into practice, by engaging two parties with two different languages at the same time. If my parents cannot understand English, can I present in Mandarin?
