my thai maid also know limited cantonese and no english...also 唔太識分配時間做野... quite painful in communicate with her actually... especially when I have limited time!! sometimes she even mix up 'today', 'tonight', 'tomorrow's night', 'yesterday', 'tomorrow'........................ and even time.....
"唔太識分配時間做野" <-- set a detail schedule and enforce her to follow... no need to explain too much as she won't understand.. just use our power to enforce her to follow that strictly.
Instruction needs to be given as simple as it can be la (do, use, clean...etc)... or use flash card with translation... .
I put everything in writing (in Thai).. always show her the words + orally instruct her... show her the actual item............... it's like doing it once myself~~
Always demonstrate physcially.... repeat and repeat.... ask her to do it in front of you .. repeat and repeat
other minor things.... just let her do it in her way and if it's ok.. jsut let go... can't follow up so much..................
no need to give her options... as she won't understand anyway
haha.. agreed.. "雖然佢地可能明白,但唔代表佢地以後會記得LAW"!! really don't understand why they can do it some other way while the same things have been doing daily gar............
