      Hi parents,


      Can anyone tell me more about TAS (the alternative story)? I heard about them from a friend who tried their holiday programmes and said they are good for english and creative writing. Anyone here has any experience? My kids writing is not too good and am looking for a centre to help them with this.

        Hi vksmums,

        I joined TAS not too long ago and really like their teaching style and materials. You can go down to their centre to take a look at their materials and also go for a free trial. They have their own thread which can be found at the marketplace. It is found here:
        http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7586&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

        You can also visit their website which is thealternativestory.blogspot.com

        Which branch are you looking at? Their bukit timah and east branch are new and their yishun branch is their main branch, I heard a parent telling me that they are looking for another location as their lease at yishun ends next year. So far, they are unable to find any at yishun and hence might look for one at ang mo kio or khatib. Your profile states you stay at amk? So you should try their yishun branch and its better if they are really moving down the mrt line..haha πŸ˜‰

            Hi MLJ,


            Thanks for the information you provided! Will definitely make an appointment to go down. And yes, hopefully can come down to amk, but if not yishun is also fine, its not too far for us.

              Hi TAS,

              Are you considering AMK? I have yet to arrange my logistics to fetch my kid to your centre at yishun, if you are considering AMK, it would really be much easier for me. Could you give some indication as to how serious you are abt considering AMK? πŸ™

                  Hi TAS,


                  I would really be so happy if you could move to AMK..I too have friends who have been wanting to join you staying in this area. Anyway, I am signing up for your yishun holiday programs. Hopefully, there could be some good news by then.. :xedfingers:

                    Hi JayneLL, kitty2 and littlewoman,

                    We have been looking for a place in Yishun as our current place at
                    Yishun Ave 11 is too small for us. However, we have not been
                    successful in doing so. We have also been looking in the Ang Mo
                    Kio area and did find a place that seems quite suitable. However,
                    we have not confirmed anything. We are quite serious about this place
                    and will let you know once it is confirmed.

                    TAS

                      Hi TAS,


                      I am really excited to see you are really considering AMK, I went down to your yishun branch and brought my kid for a trial and she really liked it. We have already signed up and it would be extra convenient if you move to AMK. I know of 2 other friends who want to sign up after I showed them your work but they stay at Toa Payoh. They would def sign up if you move to AMK. :love:

                        Hi TAS,


                        I have heard about your book from my sister. She highly recommends it. How do I go about buying it? She says it is only available at your centres…do you have any more copies?
