Extolling the virtues of the Chinese educate system mum Faye, who owns a Chinese restaurant, said: “We mark down his mistakes…that is a most important process so we can focus on that problem to improve him.”
She added: “I think a Child Genius is really a test to prove the Chinese education system can work very well.”One tweeted: “Gar Jun’s mum is beyond! Let your children have fun. They are young for such a short time!! Horrible to see him pushed so hard!” Another said: “Gar Jun's mum's expectations are far too high. The lad did well and is currently at the top, just be happy for him for that!”MOST READ IN NEWS
