      Dear Mummies,


      Please help to advise wat kind of tuition or enrichment class at a really affordable fees.. to go for as my P1 son doesn't really know a lot of words in English, cannot really read...as he does not have a basic foundation in reading, phonics, etc.......

      At wits end...I cannot coach him personally as I'm a working mother & also lack of patience... :oops:

      Need advise URGENTLY.....

      Thanks in Advance~~~
      Hi,
      I believe when your child was in preschool, his teacher would have highlighted his weakness to you in K2. But it's not too late to brush up his English. You can try I Can Read. I recommend this is because I have seen a boy whose English improve after attending ICR. You will also have to spend time with him daily to revise his work and do some reading.

        Guess it still runs down to parents still have to do coaching to the kids in the long run... :scratchhead:

          Try Kumon centers. For English subject, it comes with accompanying CDs for each level so you can play the CDs and your son can read along with the CDs. Need to purchase from the center you enrol your son in.
          Less hand-holding required from you in that sense. When you're busy with work, just play the CDs for him


          My kids still listen to those Kumon CDs that I bought donkey years ago. Their bedtime stories 😂


          By the way, once your son learns how to read comfortably, you can switch him to another tuition center that follows school format & syllabus since he's already in primary school

                      A man's meat is another man's poison. As parents we need to monitor, not just throw the kids to the tutor.


                      Thanks for sharing 🙂
