recent read from ksp like can try to drop chi ... and dd is looking forward to freedom it seems.. hmm, without thinking I anyhow pluck a number told her if below 80 then got to resume. Now I m thinking what the magic number should be?
Dare not drop Chinese tuition. Coz once the results drop, very difficult to chase back. Still deciding on English tuition though...MrsKiasu\" post_id=\"1934331\" time=\"1567925738\" user_id=\"43981:
I saw it too..but never thought of going for it..never go for holiday prog before ..so after psle, the more wont go..prefer let kiddo rest.
Can I ask, for those having chi tuition regularly...think can drop chi tuition at sec 1 or not? -
As long got A (75) is fine? We must remember secondary is a different level. Cannot expect the kid to score high 80s to 90s like Primary school. Our expectation need to be adjust.

I sent mine for sec 1 prep for EL. Mainly because I work full time so I need to make sure she did something useful instead of staying at home. Why EL, simply because the dates did not clash with our vacation. It could have been any subject, as long as dates and price was ok. -

sky, do you mean that if non SAP school, no hcl only take CL then we can drop chi tuition? Yup Eng I think better dont stop, need to write a lot yeah..Math, you think need start or we see how first..any idea of magic number, say below x% then considered struggling? dd so far could survive primary without any tuition for Ma.MrsKiasu:Dear Mks, unless SAP school, OLevel program perhaps, HCL... otherwise, Chinese is how should I say it negligible. Please Drop Chinese tuition for your dc. Maths and English on the contrary are important.

DS CL is consistently 80+ but no HCL. He’s planning to take HCL in IP school. I really don’t dare drop Chinese tuition. Just slog for another 4 years, get it done and over with.

dd cl can consider consistently at that mark too but not SAP sch level la unless something unfortunate happen..I would think quite daring to stop that's why abit worry.. but another side of me so wanted to get freed up, not only dd.

If already taking HCL in primary and able to cope then I guess it’s fine to stop tuition.

DS never take HCL before but now want to take, we let him try lor, worst case scenario if cannot cope then drop HCL, take CL will do.

If particular about the center and the time slots, better to start early. We started late in April and already all the Sunday classes were full. Then the tuition center said cos sec sch long hours and sometimes there are activities Saturdays, so Sundays slots are most popular.
