Hi parents,


We will be moving to West Coast area next week. Tried arranging school bus with HPPS school operator but they are full.
Has anyone used any other alternative?
Appreciate your advice.

Thanks Samantha

is there such thing as lit tutoring? and what does that cover?

I do tutor Literature.
I will first go through the text with my student, making sure he understands the plot truly well. And then after finishing the book, we will move on to the bigger picture and deal with the Themes and Characters of the book to have a deeper understanding of what the story is all about. Then, we will relate this book to our own experiences and try to find its relevance in our own lives, and make sense of it all in our world.
Then there is the poetry element, where we will read poems, learn more about its structures, rhythm patterns and also the various literary tools.
Besides the reading and understanding aspect, there is also the written aspect of Literature, as the student needs to answer sourced-based questions and write essays. Again, there is a format to answering such questions. And finally lots of writing practice on the student's part.
Hope this gives you a general idea of how my Lit lesson is conducted.

Hi D3@n,

Can PM me your tutoring charges for Sec 1 English and P1 English?

Thanks.

Hi parents, you can try my dd's centre. She score around 67 for her English in SA1 and this SA2, she managed to score 87. Improvement of around 2 grades. My dd took creating writing and English A* there and her classes starts next week. She is looking forward to her lessons. Her teacher told me me that they will be teaching an interesting way to do conclusion in writing, called the twisted endings and questions ending. No idea what's those in detail but so far he results is improving. Aiming for her to score distinction, hahahaha, too ambitious

Hi can you share with me which center is your dd attending?

Thanks

May I know if anyone attending classes at Lcentral holland? I am intending to place my p3 son there. I hope to get more feedback on the class before sending him.

Of course. i'm closer to Bukit Timah Primary, that's why suggested it.

New Town is a merger of my DH old school which was Ghim Moh Pri but it is too far for us

Good luck with your registration!

Thank u

From the Henry Park Parents Networking thread, I gather already more than 28 applications living within 1km from this morning alone... :gloomy: :gloomy: :gloomy:


You might want to call school and check?

Have you considered Bukit Timah Primary, it was my back-up school as it has interesting CCAs. You might want to check it out as I think it's pretty much a shoo-in for 2C but might be oversubscribed for 2C(S).[/quote]

Yes in the morning there were more then 28 applications =( haiz.....
My back up will be New Town Primary as it will be nearer to my place then Bukit Timah pri. I didn't want my son to to travelling to far to sch.

Hi parents,


I think for sure need to ballot this year for <1km.

Are you within 1km? If not, you probably should consider other schools? :?

Yap I am within the 1km but only 28 places left feel really stress. So many people fighting for 28 places.

Hi parents,


Anyone knows how many vacancies left for 2010 P1 registration for Henry Park at Phase 2C??? This year 2011 only left 28 vacancies…feeling very stress up not sure if my son can get in =(
