      So you would think that Berries is sufficient for preparing for PSLE??

      I saw their website. They have 2 hour class just for paper 2 ...
      Berries

      But yes, at the same I am thinking that my boy won't have too much time for attending outside classes. And that it should not be too different from doing assessment work at home?

      \\

      Hi phankao

      I can't give comments as we never attend the class before.

      There are several components in the paper 2, which is the section you aim to work on ?

      Compre, I guess.[/quote]Hi phankao

      For Compre, can review on the assessment book or pass year papers to get the idea and numerous of key words/phrases that require to attempts to those why and how questions.

        Hi there.


        They took away the two hours paper two class.Now, replaced by three hour class.That is why me and ds calling it a quit.

        Cheers

        But there's a new column that lists \"PSLE Booster\" which is a 2-hour class for Paper 2...

        Yes. Saw it from the website. Look likes is a 6 days program.

          Yeah, my son said he doesn't want to go for any Chinese tuition, and furthermore there'd probably be homework as well from tuition. He say Compre only - just do exercise. Don't know if he'd actually keep to doing what he says?!

            I think they should plan to get works finished during the specific hours. If got home work again, then what is the different with doing test papers ourselves?

Often, they give extra work to be done also at home, too, right?

              Or does Berries NOT give homework?
