Their teacher to pupil ratio is one of the best, 1 teacher to 7 pupils. They will teach English and Math at the child’s pace, if your child is fast, they will go on to teach more challenging concepts. However, do note they are rather worksheet based, parents who prefer a more creative approach to learning may not find them suitable and don’t expect a super nice environment like some of the preschools like Maple Bear, Odysessy. But if you are looking for a school that helps get your child ready for P1, can read and write relatively well, this is one of the best then.</p>

In my opinion, you cannot force  a tuition centre teacher or tuition centre mindset to become a preschool. It will approach teaching with fear instead of nurturing. There is an absence of love and care.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1403819</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1403819</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[voltes5]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 23 Oct 2014 10:06:47 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Seeds D&#x27;learning House - Discussion on Mon, 25 Aug 2014 10:01:25 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">I have friends who have taken their children out fr Pat schools to go to SEEDs and they are happy with the learning.

I liked the overall cleanliness, and the small ratio of students to teachers. Saw the compositions on the boards, and was very impressed. The principal however did not mention about the PM sessions, I was not aware that they could actually stay till 5pm, or it applies to older kids only? my son is 2.5 years old.<br /><br />I visited them on a sat, so i will be going down again on a weekday, because i need to hear and meet the teachers personally. Teachers are very important i feel. Do you have any comments on the teachers at Seeds? <br /><br />thanks for sharing and good to know your are satisfied with them.</p>

Thanks.</blockquote></blockquote>Hi Kenixlee75,<br /><br />I don't have any experience with LC.  But I ( stay-home mum living in hougang) personally drive my 2 kids to Seeds D'learning house @ Tembeling centre (previously they are @ Katong Mall)  MON-Fri , since my elder girl start K2 in jan 2008 with them. <br /><br />I started both kids FULL day child care at Cherie Heart playhouse @ upp serangoon since  18mths,  since it  is near hougang home.<br /><br />The reason why I go through DAILY traffic hazzle &amp; long journey  can tell alot about how good is this SEEDs D'learning house.<br /><br />Though stay-home mum, I studied part-time course, so I had to put them in full day child care since 18mths.    Through my elder girl's E&amp;P abacus sch principal recommendation (she transfer her son from pat schhouse to seeds),  I check out SEEDS &amp; was very impressed with them.  <br /><br />Seeds   FOUNDers are 2 sisters , who quit teaching in AI_TONG pri to start this pre-sch.   Through word of mouth,  many parents transfer their kids to Seeds.    I heard they have no vacancy for most  class (though I cant confirm).   <br /><br />Pls Call them 62477271.  Before enrolling your kid,  they need to assess your kid's level.   As this is one-to-one kind of daily worksheets, catered to your kid individual pace of learning.  Meaning if your kid (say K2) is ahead of her K2 peers,  she can learn ahead , say P1/2 syllabus.  IN FACT, all their K2  are taught the whole P1 syllabus , so that they will not be TAKEN aback by the \"NEW concept\"  taught in P1/2.   I even talked to some parents who had started their 2-3 yr old kids earlier in Seeds,  by the time their kids reach K2, they already learning P2/3 stuff.<br /><br />Besides academic readiness (taught in AM) , they have holistic curriculum in PM session ( for those who let kids stay till 5pm), eg, literature Art, chinese immersion, cookery, science experiment, writing journal,  Project work, etc.  They just recently organised FAMILY DAY event last fri 2jul @ east coast park.<br /><br />each class max 14 kids, with 2 teachers.  For more info,  call them.<br /><br />My elder girl , born jan 2002, completed k2 when she (5yrs old) should be in k1 level .  So I don't want her to repeat k2 level in cherie hearts again .  When she was assessed by Seeds in jan 2008 (k2),  she was not even \"P1 ready\"  as compared to seeds existing K1/2 kids..  <br /><br />Luckily,  she pick up quickly &amp; catch up with progress of the rest of seeds existing K2 kids..  She now enjoyed nanyang primary sch very much &amp; look forward to sch every day.  <br /><br />Hope this helps...  I hope I won't be penalised for sharing such experience..<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/212942</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/212942</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[xi-fu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 04 Jul 2010 00:48:57 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Seeds D&#x27;learning House - Discussion on Sat, 03 Jul 2010 17:49:08 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">Hi,<br /><br /><br />I am looking for a english enrichment for my DS (N2).
