All About English Creative Writing

[lezzi]

Joy, which beanch did you went? I’m looking at the one at Hougang, called this afternoon and was told that their English prog is 2hrs. $85/mth.

The lady who pick up the phone doesn’t seems to be keen to talk, so I rush through what would be taught and cost timings. Forgotten to check the ratio… think i have to call back and ask again

Yes, that is the branch that I went.The counter is like that but the manager is nice.

If this type of course is what you are looking for, maybe you can give her a try. Personally I prefer a more 'lively' type of lesson if available, something to inspire my child.[/quote]
Hey babysz, i find if you're looking for 'lively' type of lesson, i would really recommend miss er (9655 5836). she coach e/m/s and her english lessons really impress me - she manages to cover oral, compre, compo, synthesis, everything plus creative writing and i see the improvements in my kids work and interest in her worksheets. her way of teaching is very open and vibrant, more on participative plus understanding than just rote learn. my kids been with her awhile now and can see they have develop a passion for reading/writing

Anyone knows if English tution offered by Kent Ridge is good for lower primary? My daughter is P2 next year, and is thinking between Morris Allen & Kent Ridge.

Hope someone could offer me some good advice.

My kid has attended both mindstretcher and morris. I find that Morris’s teacher do not stress the kids so much and my kid enjoys the class. She has to read a few book a week which that borrow from the class, that has help her quite a bit in her reading. As for Mindstretcher, I feel that teacher stress more on the academic which help her in her school work. However, I finds that they let the kids run in and out of the centre on their own. Both have their pros and cons, depending what your child needs. Of course, this might varis among the teachers even within the same branding. This are my personal view for your reference.
