      If compare TAS and Mindstretcher, DS prefer TAS as the lessons are more fun and challenging. Mindstretcher has tons of worksheets to do and is not tat challenging.

      It's nice to hear from someone who has tried both. In yr opinion which syllabus is better in terms of building a child's eng foundation? Is yr DD still with TAS?

              Hi can check out indigo. My nephew is there. Small class size is an advantage. N i think they teach both compre and compo in one lesson. K call and ask.

                  Learning point does not have separate classes for compo and comprehension. They cover everything including oral, if I am not wrong.


                  LP does not have pure compo class. It is all-in-one class. I find that not enough practises for compo if we solely depend on the centre to deliver the result.

                  When my niece was there they cover everything but my sister compared her daughter's writing with her friend's daughter also in same level and centre and discovered the story which her daughter write was the same as her friend's daughter. So my sister was confused. As far as I heard from my sister, they cover everything. Hope this shraing helps

                    I know LP covers quite a lot in one lesson. In my opinion, TAS is very good for compre and compo. They also cover oral at times and other segments but I find compre and compo the harder parts to teach and so if you kids struggle in these areas, I feel TAS is especially good in those segments.

                      I am not very sure what you mean but my P5 daughter's centre have lessons which get them to write but at the same time have parts of the lesson that teach reading skills which are useful for Comprehension. But their Compre questions require lots of thinking skills. I like it and they encourage reading.
