...a nosebleed in teaching a non-native three-year-old boy. This is a record-breaker for me. It is my first time having a free trial class at this young age. During the class online, it was like a tormenting moment. It is so obvious that the child cannot say or read any words in English. After a few minutes, the mother dropped the call. The good thing is that I do not need to suffer. Do you think that mothers should first teach their kids? Image Credit: encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com

Yes, it would be easier for the teachers. My mom taught us many things.

My lovely mother did this, too. I think mothers should be hands on in educating their kids.

@dya80dya I felt bad for some mothers who have not fully experienced real motherhood for not doing this.

@Shavkat I think the same. I appreciate such mothers who take care of their children's education.

Since they are not yet enrolled in formal education settings, I believe there are some things you should know when working with children that age. Because they are not yet as eager to learn as other children are, preschool teachers require specialized skills to deal with them, which makes them very different from grade school teachers.

Indeed. I must say that I cannot dive to his level of teaching. It is really not my cup of tea. I prefer young learners in primary school.
