Dear fellow parents,


I was thinking, we are constantly being flooded with much information on tuition centres and agencies, then what would help parents get the information and tuition centres that they want easier and faster?if there is such a service,would you guys use it often? the idea is kind of like this forum but simplified.

Please do give me your views! You can choose all 3 as well! (I actually got a few posts a few days back and i am really appreciative of all the fellow parents giving their advices and views, lets do help each other out )

fellow parents,


for fine arts classes,how did you guys search for them? through word of mouth? websites? advertisements which include banners and posters?

I would rather spend the few thousand on tuition than attending those talks. Those motivational talks are useless if the child is weak. Use the money for 1-1 instead. If he/she is good in studies, why would I still need to spend money for that??? This is my opinion...btw, does Adam Khoo conduct those talks or get his employees to do so?

adam khoo has a concept of multiplying businesses ie to find ways to create value for the business such that it can eventually self run and no longer need to get dirty with his own hands and that is exactly what he did. The talk given wasnt by him, instead by one of his trainers and he speaks exactly the same way as adam khoo. the way they engage the audience, garner response, tell their jokes and try to relate to the audience is exactly the same.

Hello fellow parents,


I am seriously considering whether I should send my child for classes on fine arts (eg singing,piano) like these. Like every other parent, I want my child to have many talents and to be well-rounded. My own parents sent me to piano classes and the likes but a general observation (for other kids back then and even now) is, the most it went was to develop into a small little habit. We want our child to do well for PSLE, O lvl, A lvl, go to uni.

We want them to be good in all the relevant subjects, english, maths, science, then the question comes…by sending them to these classes, wouldnt it be a waste of time and money? (assuming they do not have an interest or have no opinions about it,you send them for it,dont send them for it they dont mind) Because ultimately there isnt much market for fine arts like these, we will all aim for our children to be a white collar worker.

I’m not debating whether fine arts is a need, but rather, how willing are you to send your child to pursue this aspect knowing that it wouldnt contribute that much to his/her future?

Hello fellow parents,


Went for a recent adam khoo workshop introductory workshop and had a 2-3hr session on how to unleash potential of my child. The $2k price seems a bit too steep, but the talk gives even the adults there some motivation and adrenaline. Contemplated for very long, opportunities and cost. What do you guys think?

Hello fellow parents,


Purpose of the poll is to understand which is the most reliable and efficient way for any parent to get a good tuition teacher or centre for their child/children.

Thank you for your time!
