Comparing Pre-school English Reading and Phonics Enrichment

[aspring]

MMM:

Jan & Elly does express class. Eg. 1-1 phonics teaching. But you'll have to pay a premium. Eg. Entire term fees for 1 week. I heard that alot of K2 does that at the last minute. My son did his express advanced phonics that way too as he started late with the school.

Hi MMM
My boy now is in Jan & Elly He was doing one to one early this year in Jan & Elly and he do well ( same as your son he enter late ) after that he join the normal class which he did not do well so i think he is better with one to one method also talk to him about this and he confirm he prefer one to one so i have decide to pull him out from normal class. Have not decide to continue with Jan & Elly yet as they say it difficult to have one to one class have depend on the enrollment of next year and the schedule, also i am considering the fee.

Hi


I’m thinking of sending my girl to the Literacy in Actions with Growing up Gifted. However, i’m playing the Leapfrog phonics DVD.

Will my girl be confused with these 2 different phonics teaching? Anyone care to share their experience?

Thanks

I am hesitating if to send my K1 gal to Lorna Whiston or I can read? Can someone share your experience. Thanks.

Hi Minnie


I just withdraw my K1 girl from I Can Read. She started off with I Can Read at their earlier stages (TCS and PRP). I find the programmes ok until she reaches the I Can Read Stage 1 now. The workbooks i find are difficult to teach which some other parents i know (who also send their kids to ICR) begged to differ. You may want to ask to see the workbooks at ICanRead Stage and see for yourself...
Cant comment much on LW coz no experience personally..

[minnie]

Anymore feedback?

Hi, any parents have send their kids to Jan & Elly for English Enrichment Class?? Any feedback?

Bijin, my son was attending GUG’s Early Reading programme and then switched to Literacy In Action which has speech and drama also. I think both are very good because he picked up reading very quickly. He really enjoys going to the classes too. Sorry no experience with Leap Frog but maybe just try out the classes for yourself and see how your child likes them!
