        dd1 is busy coaching dd2. Meaningfully occupied. I'm so grateful to dd1. Tuition doesn't work for dd2. dd1 can zoom in on dd2's weak areas, better than any tutor.
        your daughter who has just completed her PSLE is the best tutor...she understands what is required and at the same time her sister's weak areas.

            when your older girl goes to sec 1, she will not have time to coach 妹妹...managing 8 subjects will be challenging. if your younger daughter's tutor is not able to teach, then you can change.

              Ok bought her storybooks, sign her up for music classes and taekwondo...


              You can set her projects to do? Such as planning a Christmas party or something like that for family, cousins, friends or whatever. Or making some cards and gifts in preparation for Christmas. If there is someone to supervise, you can get her to practise making some cookies etc, again for Christmas. My end of year activities all seem to be for Christmas!

              good idea indeed!!! thanks!

                    Inevitable. My dd2 gets distracted when dd1 is watching 9pm show on ch8 whereas she has to go to bed. And they frequently start giggling in the middle of coaching.

                        I’m keeping chinese tutor till year end despite post psle. Asked her to discuss current affairs, book reviews, 散文 etc to keep dd gainfully engaged. CL fluency is a long term investment.
