Comparing English Enrichment Programmes

Personally, I think ICL for P1 is not really as fascinating as compared to their preschool programme. But I guess it might depend on the Teacher as well.


On the materials content alone, I would say its pretty close to what you in most schools and the usual assessment books. If you're looking for \"extra\" edge, then its not the most ideal choice.

Thx for sharing! What would you recommend for Pri level?

P1 headstart fee is at $390, if I remember correctly.

May I ask if Learning Point is suitable for upper primary (P5/P6) ? Heard that the kids need to sit for an Entrance Test before joining the program… Is the test very difficult ?


Has anyone tried LP at Thomson Plaza ? Thank you…

Hi Parents,


My P3 gal is very bad with comprehension.
Can anyone advise how to help her improve? Any english tuition centre or enrichment class to recommend that can help her?
I desperately want to try to see how I could assist her before her final exam. She didn't very well in her comprehension part of her mid-year exam and now only manages to get half mark out of 6 in her recent test.
:scared: I let her do assessment papers and go through the wrong answers with her and the passage but didn't seem to work..

Sorry but I cannot seem to find any posts regarding Mindchamps English Programme.


Any comments on them? Are they able to help a child learn to read or is I Can Read a better programme?

Thanks

Same problem I have. Comprehension really bringing her scores down. I am at my wits end!

There are plenty reading programme around. Each programme has it's own strength. Visit the centres, check & understand through the programme to see if it helps you to decide which programme might be suitable to your kid?

The only problem these days, enrichment programmes are getting secretive, they either only describe what they do, or just show u one worksheet and expect the parents to know whether its good or not. :roll:
