During term 1 and 2 when the workload was manageable, I can at least help along with some revision with him. Since June onwards, we are overwhelm by the increased homework load, supplementary classes etc, and it is hard to stick to the revision plan. Feel rather insecure. Not sure if you encounter the same too

i know what you mean. towards sa1, my daughter had so much homework i had to make sure she has sufficient rest. on my side, i had to hold back. on the days she has supplementary lessons, i do not give her any work as well. for the whole of this week, she has quite a bit of english homework as well.

Hi, has anyone bought the chinese oral pack by E-Com Education?

http://www.etutorbook.com/eoral/ Can share whether it is worth buying? or any other recommendations for chinese oral besides this one? TIA

Hi Admummy, I saw a Facebook sharing of this product. As it's not relevant to the current 2016 PSLE Discussions thread, do u mind if I bring my comments over to the Q&A - PSLE Chinese thread? http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=25131&start=830 Thank you.

Lam, school has few topics to teach now and they hv started to revise, so I don't think you should be too anxious. As long as the kid is absorbing well in school, does the homework consciously and plus if kid has tuition and is cooperating with tutors...I think not necessarily to overload them. As what some other parents had reminded, it is very critical not to burn them out in these last few mths, if not, 功亏一篑。In my opinion, just pace them, they must work hard, but must give them some space to breathe as well. I know it is hard to control our own anxieties (myself too ) but we just have to try to balance all these.

What if we are not in town to receive the PSLE results? Can we go back to the school after we are back to receive the results?
