      Hi JHJC


      I tik the centre charge additional $50 more for once a week lesson.

      Wow, I’m surprised that u enrol ur girl so young. (Must be a smart little girl)

      In fact, I wan to enrol my son who is also 3 yrs old plus to Abacus class. But the teacher tik he too young for it. The teacher recommend me to get him enrol when he’s 4yrs old.

        my child is in Sat. class.
        btw, did the teacher ask yours to go twice a week? i did not take it up.
        As it is, she is already doing CMA homework everyday.
        I was told abt the twice weekly sessions... But due to time constraints on my part I can only let my son go for the once weekly session. Not really pushing him, just letting him go at his own pace. My boy is not very hardworking (or rather on my part) cos I usually spend time to go thru his homework on Fri/Sat nites before his class :oops:

        Anyway he has completed the tedious exercise which requires right hand then left hand then both hands as it is so repetitive. My boy enjoys the addition and subtraction exercises which he does fairly quickly.

        Only prob now is my son is not at the stage where he knows how to manipulate the 4+1 = 1 top bead or 4+2 = 1 top bead and 1 bottom bead etc on the abacus... if ask him to add 4+1/4+2/4+3/4+4 w/o using his usual finger counting method he is stuck.

              I assume your daughter had febrile fits during her infancy which could not have caused any damage to her brain, have you sent her for specialist’s assessment to confirm that her ‘slowness’ is due to that?

                Cartier,
                Thanks very much for you concern. 😢
                She was hospitalised for a short period, done brain scaning, ECG + 1yr outpatient checkup. Only recently, acadamically we find her slow. Had make apptmt with kkh specialist to reassess her.

                I have a colleague, who daughter had fits when young, now in P2. Her result is 6.5% to 10% only. That makes me thinks/suspect that my daughter could be in the same problem. I have invite him to bring his daughter to CMA, hope its not too late for the poor girl.

                    Hi,


                    I entrolled my 9 yrs old child in the CMA recently. Yap, it really late for her to start now. I checked with the centre , they told me the speed of calculation might slow but to understand the concept will be much better as compare to the younger age. After much consideration, I decided to entrol her as I find she lost interest in doing assignment because she is slow in mental calculation. I hope abacus can improve her mental calculation therefore help her to speed up and gain confident while doing assignment. In addition, abacus train the right brain.

                      I would consider enroll by 7yr old son, aft gradually settle him down with other tuition / enrichment...
                      recently i found 'free assignment' website. you can let ur 9yr old child try out.

                        Hi, my girl started CMA around 5+, now she is k2. I don't mean to test her, just ask her to do some of the primary 1 math questions to familiar with the question format. She is capable enough use her mental sum to calculate addition and subtraction. Hope she will use her skill on buying food when she admit to p1 next year.

                        In case you need for referral, Here is my girl's detail:

                        CMA branch: tampines
                        Child name: Letisha Deng
                        student No.: SG0060062

                        Pls let me know if you need more information.

                        Hi Amy,

                        My son will be going for the pre-entry assessment this friday.
                        If all's good, i will sign him up.
                        Is it going to be difficult?
                        My boy can write numbers well. Not too sure if can handle the abacus.

                        Yeah its a good idea to provide him w this skill.. have not really thought about him buying things on his own! :roll:

                        Thanks alot for your reference!
                        :D[/quote]
