E&P Learning Place - Discussion

nmhmum:

...Now she is K2 and is doing book 5 whereby they do all the multiplication and division. She still has 3 books to go, but I intend to stop her already cos I think it is sufficient for her already.

Yes, and I have witnessed with my own eyes the prowess of either a graduate or on-going student of E&P. Though she was only P1, I had to kow-tow to her ability to divide, which surpasses mine by several folds.

Can the same be achieved with kumon ??

[nmhmum]

Yes, it is really amazing to see my girl can divide those difficult questions easily without the help of the calculator. But one thing bad is there are too many homework for her. Sometimes she do until she cries.

Hi Voo Voo


I started him with the abacus class (4 books) and then follow by the mental calculation class (8 books). He completed the whole syballus. What \"nmhmum\" said is truth they do difficult questions easily without the help of the calculator. He also taken a competition organisa by E & P and a IQ paper which is recognize by MOE.

Hi Sally, the IQ paper you mentioned.....are you refering to SOI, CMAS or TEMA ?

[sally]

Hi


I not too sure what it is but Ms Lian told us that she had submitted the paper to MOE for your vetting and obtaining approval from MOE. According to her some parent use it to get their child into the Gifted Programme.

So can anyone advise what are the differences between E&P & CMA teaching?


Has any one send their child to both?

At first, thinking of sending my daughter who will be turning 4 next month of CMA in 2009. Now heard about E&P, a bit confused… which to enrol?

Any recommendations?

My daughter can count write up to 20 and more…

[nmhmum]

I know that E & P has been in the market for ten over years and they claim that they are the pioneer for abacus class and CMA has been in the market for about 3 to 4 years. I don’t know whether they are using the same method or not. One thing for E & P is they only have 2 centres ( one in Orchard and another one in Yishun ) wherelse the CMA they have many centres all over Singapore. As for the IQ test, my girl just took the SOI test organise by the E & P… but I am not too sure they are recognised by MOE. My girl’s teacher did not mention to me about this… Maybe I need to ask her about it.

E&P TOTAL BRAIN DEVELOPMENT


Pls could some kind soul advise on the relevance of this course? What is being taught and what are the benefits? I only know that it’s being taught in Mandarin and nothing else.

Thanks in advance.
