Thanks MMM and adafew.


i have signed my dd up for the weekday class at BC. I am looking forward to the class and see for myself the benefits of it after hearing so much gd comments on it

U guys any idea whether BC opens up the 2nd half class to existing students b4 opening to public? I hv signed up for the 1st half only, thinking try out 1st.. oh no! now i got to worry about her place in 2nd half of the year! :roll:

[MMM]

Yes, they usually open up 2nd half to existing students before opening to public. However, alot of us usually sign for the full year to secure the timing.

Thanks MMM... now i got to that i can secure a place for 2nd half...

Hi, has anyone sent your kid to BC's creative writing holiday class? Any comments?


I am considering sending my DS to P2 course at Marsiling branch next yr since Napier does not have wkday courses. Understand that it is at a CC. Any of yr kids are there? How's the facilities n teachers there?

Tks v much!!

I am researching where to send my 10yo. I hear LCentral (previously Literacy Circle) is almost like ICR but the exam skills prog much better.

I like ICR the way they teach phonics. My frenz son do very well with reading but I want my daughter to focus on oral (she very shy timid type) and compo.

Lcentral has 8 centres…anyone have any feedback from them? I am not interested in British Council or Lorna Whiston. Or can recommend elsewhere?

Yes, it seems hard to find good English tuition, a lot of places focus just on assessment books or just learning for fun, is there a place with a balance of both creativity but also making sure the child does well?

Hi yismom,


I stay in Yishun as well, recently, my friend recommended me to a tuition place, seems like they use quite good strategies to teach and my kid loves the lessons, he seems to be improving too. I can pass you the contacts if you want.
