Hi Dino mummy,


She's in book 3 already and they have words like 'gnome', 'though'. Decided to stick to ICR as one of my girlfriends told me that her P2 girl is having good results as a result of foundation in ICR. Anyway the teacher said that she is not concerned with the spelling.

I think Jurong East LCentral is a good branch, already establish. Just check the class size before signing up.

Hi, can I check how fast can a child be promoted from foundation to the next level?

I am starting to feel that they will purposely extend the foundation period to generate more $$.
Do they promote by age or by capability?

Foundation/Launchpad are for younger children and they are promoted as and when the teacher finds the child is able to put what they have learnt to practice. The programme is by literacy level and not by age.
If you need explanations, you can always check with the teacher. Teacher is only in charge of the programmes and not the $$ aspect. And they have head office to do checks as well.

Also, younger children have short attention spans which is why the centre always have small activities (learn through play) to keep the child occupied... it is not that the teacher is not \"teaching\" ...

LCentral has already 13 centres in Singapore, 6 overseas. Holland branch opened in May 2011 and though at a very short period of time… students have already increased gradually due to good parent refferals and good grades from previous yr students.

Please check with the centre manager in charge at 67781086.

Current teacher is Teacher Stefan from London, he has a first class honours in English and Creative Writing. So if you find you want somebody who can engage your child, whats better than having a native speaker who is fun and patient and small class size for easy focus on each individual child.
