Hi double E，


Your son’s schedule also very full. How is his social interaction now? I am planning send my son to writing also. So far, we do group OT and ST.

Hi double E，


Your son's schedule also very full. How is his social interaction now? I am planning send my son to writing also. So far, we do group OT and ST.

I think his social interaction is improving. He plays with friends and will ask them if they want to play with him. Just that he can be very curt and direct with them as if he scolding them. Also, sometimes, he doesn't follow the rules and insist his ways, that's when others are irritated with him.

Yah, his schedule is very full but we have already taken away two items. Now I am contemplating to stop his TWD as well cos I forsee when he goes P1 next year, he will be very tied up with school work and can't attend so many lessons. By then, I may have to stop OT too. So by next year, he may left with just I can Read, Berries, Swimming and Brainy moves.

Hi Double E,


Woah! I always wonder whether the day will come when my darling will be ‘freed’ from therapies like OT and ST. Both Niu2009 and you give me hope that it is possible! Thanks for sharing! Btw, what is TWD? Taiwan $? Hee… Hee…

Btw, you stopped neurofeedback for your son already?

Sending my boy for a trial P1 preparatory Math/Chinese class this Saturday, hope it helps make his academic life easier next year.


Was contemplating registering in both mainstream & PL but heard the wait list in PL is already till end of next year.

I haven’t started him on ICR. But will do so very soon. He is now taught by a tutor on Eng and Maths. Doing Comprehension, grammar and vocb for Eng now and for maths, he is learning to count money, number bonds, more complex patterns, simple problem sums. Is not easy, and I really need to (i am struggling) to find time to do worksheets with him at least 3-4 days a week. And my younger one is also K1 this year, cannot play play anymore. I felt bad that I had neglected the younger one on her academic, so I am also catching up on it now by outsourcing. Very siong on the pocket!

TWD is Taekwando! haha. not Taiwan. My son is still on neurofeedback cos we have paid in advance. We will stop after we finished all the sessions that we have paid.

Hi Double E,


How much is your tutor fees? 1-2 hours? My boy cannot cope with mental sums, problem sum & comprehension. I think this will be big challenges for him in P1. Haven’t mention Chinese but I think can get exemption. TIA!
