Thank you so much.[/quote]you are welcome.
my panic alarm also went off when i received the notice.
but carefully looking at other centres, i can see that the increase is on par with the other centres (those under my shortlist la).
so it now boils down to my basic list of convenience, effectiveness and timing for classes. admin's attitude also plays a part.... ....i need to feel that they genuinely care for the kids...i rank that above effectiveness of the course.

Is tas also increasing? Any idea what's their new fees like?

I heard it's $458 now (from $388) but you may wish to double chk with TAS.

only P1 charging $ 46 per lesson.
Extremely ex ! Crazy ! :siao:

$ (458 - 388 )
= $ 70, big jump !

this kind of fees, <6-8 then justifiable for me to pay.

For how many lessons?

Mindstretcher is per month basis $40 increase per subject :faint:[/quote]sleepy,
my boy with neighbourhood centre for chinese, last increase was a few months back, $8 per lesson, works out to be $32/month.
but class size is half or lesser than half of mindstretcher.

$ 46 / lesson, for a class of 15 - 16 kids.


ridiculous !
gosh ! :siam:

mindstretcher also around this cost right? (i am comparing for P6 science)
mindstretcher is $46/lesson for class of 15-16kids.
compared to science hub P5 science $55/lesson for class of max 12 kids.

market rate???!!

Alternatives — such as??


Those centres that are currently below 400 are already the entry level centres. They are one of the most affordable around ( and they are the ones I can only afford!!!) already. Morris Allen, Lorna Whiston, British Council, Learning Point, creative orizon etc… Are all $500 above currently… Dun even mention abt that TOP of the league one.

I am sure the other centres are also increasing their price next year. How to jump ship liddat??
