Hi,

My daughter is in IP1 and she needs help in maths urgently. I’m in the east and looking for 1-1 tuition. Will appreciate if it’s a direct recommendation, ie. tried and tested. Tuition center will not be suitable, 1-1 coaching in her case. thanks.

Hi Mandy

can you pm her the tutor’s contact?

Many thanks for all your help and support. Much appreciated

Thank you so much Lexis. I feel much better now. I am very anxious lately knowing the dates are looming ahead and preparing for so many things simultaneously. Helps to stay relaxed in the process. School is one of the 2 things we fear coming home besides the weather.

Dear Lexis

Thanks for much for your reply and the hint! Regarding composition, can you tell me what’s a typical composition topic in Singapore? My daughter is not familiar with writing composition. what about the interview, is it nerve-wreckily difficult? We will try to prepare as much as possible here but i’m worried having been away for some years could be difficult for her. thanks again!

Hi Parents

We will be trying for TA 2017 under DSA secondary (non-MOE). We are currently residing overseas (in EU) and returning to Singapore only in June. Would love to have some insights what is expected in Cognitive and written components and what about Maths Entrance Tests? is this about the same standard as PSLE?
Is attending the open house helpful? we are thinking whether it make sense to make a trip back to Singapore just to attend the open house.
appreciate any help or guidance in this area. thanks.

Hi Parents

wondering if anyone has any prior experience with DSA for SOTA? is this a very difficult process and what sort of questions should we prepare the kids for? What about the tests that the kids need to undertake? ie. Maths and English. Are they difficult?
We are a Singaporean family about to return to Singapore around July of this year. Thanks.

Hi Everyone

Like ‘totallyeclipsed’ did 3 years ago, my family and i will be returning to Singapore in July with our P6 daughter who will finish G6 (IB) here in Germany by then. We are also going to put her to SPERS in Sep for S1 postings.
Was wondering if ‘totallyeclipsed’ or any parents out there who can share your experience through the process.
I’m really concerned if my daughter can manage the Singapore exam format.
Is it a good idea to put her to a primary school from July to Sep or should i just give her private tuition in the 3 months to prepare for SPERS?
Would really appreciate any advice i can get.
Thanks a zil!
