      Pls check their website at http://www.perceptum.com.sg


      My girl is currently at P6 and we only enrolled her at the beginning of the year. For maths, she never had any tuition before but we decided to put her with Mr Lee to tackle the more complex problems. If Mr Lee finds that your kid is not suitable for class environment, he will try to introduce tutor for 1-to-1.

      With regard to Science, I'm very pleased with Mrs Sim's teaching and the notes given cos my girl has a 'lousy' Science teacher who happens to be the HOD but he just can't click with the kids. By the way, my girl's science teacher is pretty 'well-known'....even Mrs Sim knows him as they were once colleagues.

      Both Mr Lee and Mrs Sim were ex-school teachers.

      My girl enjoys their lessons very much. Homework is given after every lesson and they expect the kids to finish the homework. If not done, the kids got to stay back and finish up the work.

      Hope the above helps.

          Sorry, one more... extraedge.. feedback been +positive from the above comments.. anyone has anymore to add ? πŸ˜‰

          Thought of adding my feedback on extraedge in case someone chance upon this thread.

          Fun as they do experiments in school. Heard their teacher is PSLE marker so I supposed he will be able to guide them on how to answer the questions.

          Some of the experiments they did include the mouldy bread. Common exam questions. They were given worms to bring home to observe the developmt :!: I wasn't too pleased/ keen with that.

          Results... my P3 moved from 60+ in CA1 to 80 in CA2. So I suppose it does help in some information retention.

            Hi MMM

            Wow. This is a tremendous improvement of 60+ to 80. Will look out and see whether they conduct any year end workshop for Science.

              Hi Brenda10,

              For year end workshop/ camp, I like the 1 week discovery camp. It's cheap and good. My kids attended twice in the last 2 years and they enjoyed it tremendously. Always ask to go but sometimes the schedule clash.
