      Hi,


      I used to think that tuition is not necessary for children at a young age. I have this traditional thinking that young kids should enjoy their childhood and believe every child should have a deserving childhood. I am always contended with my son’s average results, obtaining a PASS is sufficient. But every time when I pick my son up, there will be "mummies gossips" going on, they suggested that living in a competitive edge, I shouldn’t give my children too leeway, they reminded about the challenging curriculum and if my son stayed where he is, he will lose out. I reflected and seriously agreed, for a better future of his and mine, not wanting him to rely on me even when he is an adult.

      In the "mummy gossips", I was recommended with a tutor so why not give it a shot?
      I didn’t hope for much because my the usual stories I heard with tutor that prove much results, tremendously, however, surprisingly, women’s gossips are powerful and my son from the usual 60 marks soared to 84 marks.

          Hi,


          My dd attend TAS for half year but her progress so so only. She still need alot more practice on her writing as her grammar & vocab also not v gd.
          Her sentence structure v weak. Sometimes, after reading a book & not even able to comprehen out. So now, i try to sit beside her n explain to her after she finished reading. It really take alot hard work.

          Best Regards,
          Amy
          Hi fei fish

          I can imagine the amount of hard work & time you are putting in to help yr dd. :udawoman: I do not hv the kind of patience to sit beside my dc. I heard so much abt TAS & sent my ds1 there to try out. Unfortunately it didn't work out as my ds felt he was not gd enough to join TAS. His teacher asked him which sch he came fr and she responded \"never heard of it, is it a new sch?\" During lesson no matter how many x he put his hand up, his teacher hardly pick him. He felt so demoralized & told me not to sign him up at TAS in the future. Luckily I found another ctr and he enjoys his lessons very much. I hope you will find one suitable ctr for yr dd soon. In the meantime, jia you to you and yr dd.

              Hi lurline

              I think the materials are not too bad. I stay in woodlands and TAS is not near my place too. But since so many parents commented how good TAS was, so I tot it's ok to travel as long as I can see results.

              But since it didn't work out, just have to keep looking till I find a suitable one.

              So happy, 2 more wks left. I can finally take a break. But with 3 kids at home, maybe not possible. 😓

                ds came back with his results today, all ok except for Maths.


                I try to teach him in my own now, hopefully can avoid tuition till p4 or 5.
