Xaviera - My former student

Xaviera came to me for tuition on 27.3.2017 when she was 3 months into primary one. Xaviera could speak very well in English as she had attended two years of kindergarten in an International School in Labuan. Furthermore, the language of communication at home was in English. After talking with her mother, Puan Ebbie Hassan, for about half an hour I asked Zaviera to read out a few alphabets to me. Some alphabets were written in large prints followed by letters in smaller prints. She could read all of them which showed that her eyesight was good.

Her pronunciation of the sounds of the alphabets was what confirmed that she was a shutdown kid.
