Any comments on CMA Bukit Batok (new) and CMA Pandan Valley?

My kid is in his second term in CMA Bukit Batok. So far, it is ok, the lady teacher teaching him produces some student that won some award. There are a few workbook that they need to do as homework, and I just make my kid do one page of each workbook everyday.

So far, my kid have been quite happy attending the class there and getting along with the other kid quite well.

Hi!


Keen to let my kid try out CMA after reading so many favourable comments.

Do any mummies have any feedback on the CMA Woodlands branch like which teacher is good?

By the way, understand that the number bonds are being taught in primary school. In that case, will the kid get confused on the different method used when they go P1?

Tks.

What is the realtionship betw number bonds and cma?

Which branch is highly recomended?
Discount still valid if referral? If so, anyone to share their kids name for referral?

My son also attends CMA, been about a year now. Very good course, highly recommended! I send my son there because my son is left-handed. Wanted him to use his right hand more often, and CMA uses 2-hand technique. He didn’t seem interest in music so didn’t send him for piano…


Anyway, ks2me, the amazing thing about the abacus is that it allows you to do complex arithmetics, more than + - x /, even includes decimal places… It’s also about brain training cos it ultimately trains you to do Math without using the abacus (that’s why it’s call mental arithmetic). But almost like Kumon, it’s practice, practice, practice…so got to do lots of homework… I mean, if you are Kiasu like me, you’d want your kids to do as much as he can everyday so can finish the course early and move on to other things. Also, once the kids reach primary school, there will be more school work to worry about, so the earlier you start, the better…usually about 4 yrs old.

Truly amazing to see your child calculating faster than you, without relying on ANY tools.

your son must be learning at thunder speed with wonderful results. I hoped that the same for my girl, my main objective is not the mental, if only i see her more focused and concentraion level upped, I guess I be as glad as u.

Can I use you as referral?

Where is your son having lessons?

my daughter has been in CMA for 1 yr 2 mth, she is somehow slowing down in her CMA work and refuse to do more than what the teacher had stamped. I know many parents in CMA is rushing their kids to finish the book so that they could get on to the next grade, not sure whether this is healthy for the kids as they may feel very tiring.

actually if parents dun rush, woul it be the kid will be staying put on that same spot?

But rushing may not mean the child has grasp the idea. *Dillemma*

My worries is such too, i dun wan to rush my girl, at the same time i dun wan her to take it too easy and become her attitude.

The greatest fear of all is she giving up when the learning get difficult.
