      Hi TAS,


      A big THANK YOU for organising the Forum Galleria event last weekend. You were very generous in not just teaching the children for free but you also gave out such nice balloons. My girl loved Ariel and Spiderman. šŸ˜‰ You also gave out not just 1 prize winner but 2 for 'every child can write'. Although my girl did not win, I was very impressed with your generous spirit and excellence in delivery. Your teacher teaching was clear and he was captivating as well. Your teaching strategies were also very interesting. šŸ˜‰ Am tempted to go for your holiday programmes, will discuss with my hubby and get back to you.

          Hi TAS,


          I heard about you from my colleague. She bought your book and has joined your programmes. Needless to say she is very happy and impressed with you. My older boy is in P2 and he can do comprehension, grammar etc very well but he struggles with creative writing. He writes quite well in the sense that he is able to string complete coherent sentences together and his story makes sense. However, he is not so good in describing the scenes. I was thinking if it is possible for him to learn the techniques and maybe progress to a higher level after he has mastered it? I am asking this as he is a very fast learner and I think he can go to a higher level after he masters the basics. But if it is not possible, that is also fine. I do not want to put you in a spot. Thank you lastly for letting non TAS parents have your book, it is really helpful.

            TAS,


            I was reading this thread - thanks so much for all the wonderful ideas!! I hope I haven't missed your sales, but do let me know when the next one is.

            DS has been reading his Murderous Math (and his other non fiction books) over and over again until (sorry, I know this is a language thread), look like kiamchye, so I havent been actively looking for other books for him. He recently picked up the Artemis Fowl series though, so he might be ready to pursue this direction further. I'll be picking over this thread through the next several months :).

            Cheers!

                Hi LLTan,

                Thank you for your feedback šŸ˜‰ We can assess your child and
                make some recommendation after that. Alternatively, if your
                child catches up very fast and progresses beyond the peers
                in his group, we will also make a recommendation to get him
                to go to a more advanced class.

                TAS

                  Hi Blobbi,

                  Sure, we will let you know about our sales. We would probably
                  have it in December. By the way, when you mention reading
                  the thread, are you talking about the 'Storybooks that help
                  your child write well' one? šŸ˜„

                  How old is your child? If your child likes Artemis Fowl, he should
                  like books by Chris Ryan, Anthony Horowitz and the Charlie
                  Bone series.

                  TAS
