2019 PSLE Discussions and Strategies (Children born in 2007)

ammonite:

Not all SAHP coach. As long as the child has literacy skills, there is nothing to stop him or her from obtaining the booklist to read ahead. It is not necessary at all to pay for tuition for that. The only difference is interest. The disinterested child needs someone to yank them to the table and pour predigested bits into the ear.

Noted, ammonite. Then such a SAHP needs to get back to the workforce if she's blessed with such \"interested\" kids! haha

can't be having tuition forever right? no wonder singapore is known as tuition nation.

JC is tough...and tuition fee for GP can easily hit $80/hr.

So sad. Back in my days, JC was one and half year of holiday camp. :siam:

Yah, got time to pak tor too.

But what I'm getting here is a lot of KSPs kids have no bf or gf in JC. Either they are very nerdy, or they are not good looking enough! :siam:

JC students (post-secondary) will remain as ah boy or ah girl, even though age wise, they aren't that far apart.

son is going to poly next month. let's see what is coming. honestly, i do hope he doesn't get a gf yet. when on cloud 9, studies will be affected...if they quarrel, studies will also be affected. 失恋 they will feel the whole world will collapse.

One friend complain to me after her DD went to a rotten sec school, she suspects her daughter got BF already. Secondary 2 this year. Ok, so must be either girl not nerdy or very pretty.
