      Oops sorry. It's the other thread :oops:. I saw your name here, put one and one together, and got three.

      He picked up Anthony Horowitz once at the airport and was laughing his head off, but I never followed up on that. Haven't heard of the other authors but will check them out tks. He's 7.
      Ho Blobbi,

      No problem šŸ˜‰ I think you are talking about 'The Diamond Brothers'
      series that Anthony Horowitz has written. The humour is quite slapstick
      and it can be funny. šŸ˜„

        Hi TAS,


        Hope you have another 10 copies of the creative writing book? Some of my friends want to order. I will arrange to go down to Yishun to collect if you do have 10 more copies.
        Hi littlewoman,

        Yes we do šŸ˜‰

          Hi TAS,


          I just got your creative writing book! It is really one of the best writing books for kids! Do you have other books, eg: grammar, synthesis, vocab, that you plan to have. I like the way you have the vocab mnemonics, and the way you teach grammar here on the forum. Perhaps you could do books solely on grammar, vocab etc. I am sure many of us will buy šŸ˜„
          Hi LadyBug3,

          Thank you šŸ˜‰ We may come up with a vocabulary mnemonics book
          but we are still working on it and it is not confirmed if we would sell
          it yet.

          TAS

            [quote]Heyya again, TAS. Can't lah.. Logistics will be a problem.

            Transport costs will also be extra. šŸ˜“ I'd rather stick
            to the current one in CCK that we are already extremely
            happy with, rather than find another in Semb/Yishun.. šŸ˜‰[/quote]Hi buds,

            If you are happy with the school in CCK, then better stick to
            it, as it is, it is hard to find good schools.

            [quote]Recently received a call from one of the schools we waitlisted at...
            :xedfingers: now.. šŸ˜‰ Tiring? Naah.. i need the exercise to stay
            in shape... whatever shape that it is now though.. :lol:[/quote]True, then when you have given birth, you can easily go back to
            your pre-pregnancy self. But it can be tiring, especially if
            you take the public transport.
            [quote]Thanks! šŸ˜„ Eh, i was already like 8weeks preggie when i attended
            your Creative Writing techniques workshop in Paya Lebar lah.. šŸ˜‰[/quote]Oh, we did not know that. You still looked slim!
            [quote]I'd go back to preschool line (still considering full-time or part-time) which
            i am very passionate in and also do further study.. šŸ˜‰ Have been
            observing the industry and looking around for a good place to work.
            Preferably near where i reside as well so it'll save travel time. [/quote]Do let us know where you will be working, maybe we could
            recommend some mothers to you if they are looking for
            preschool education.
            [quote]Yes, i am. This is a confirmed programme... together with Math as well..
            amongst other programmes in the works. šŸ˜‰[/quote]All the best for your home business!
            [quote]Aaaawww.. thanks! That's very sweet! :love:[/quote]No problem, but it is true, you have been helping so many parents
            here with your advice on preschool education so we are sure
            you will do very well.

            [quote]Yes, they are ecstatic over the possibility of joining TAS for enrichment
            lessons! They're keeping their fingers crossed. I'm considering your
            Sunday slots as both can attend at the same time, which is the most
            ideal scenario. šŸ˜„ But i also like weekdays cos it'll give them time off
            for the weekends to chill out.. but weekdays are 2 separate days &
            timings.. So will see how it goes. šŸ™ Will keep in touch with you
            guys...[/quote]Sure, hope to hear from you soon
            [quote]Oh btw, i'll see if i can personally pick up the book from you this Sunday.
            Will call to confirm first. šŸ˜‰[/quote]Sure, just call us to confirm, we are open on Sunday from 9 am to 2 pm.

              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 vksmums,

              Yes it will be more convenient but it is not confirmed that we are
              moving to AMK but the possibility is high šŸ˜‰

                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?

                  Hi TAS,

                  Yes!! Hopefully, you can settle on getting the AMK place..I was
                  really so so excited when I saw your post. I stay at Bishan and AMK is so much nearer than Yishun. Glad your lease at Yishun expires next year and it is too small for you šŸ˜‰
                  Hi GilTang,

                  We will keep you posted šŸ˜‰

                    Hi TAS,


                    My son came back today telling me that his teacher was also promoting the TAS book! He was so proud that he had the book already haha. Anyway, do let us know if you plan to come up with any more books, whether they are creative writing or dealing with paper 2.
                    Hi singapore45,

                    Thanks for your feedback! šŸ˜‰ We might come up with a vocabulary
                    mnemonics book.

                      Hi parents,


                      We have had several inquiries on whether we are starting a new branch
                      in AMK. We are not starting a new branch. We are looking for a
                      location for our Yishun branch as our lease for our centre at Yishun
                      expires next year. We have not been able to find a suitable location
                      in Yishun and hence started looking at the AMK area. We have found
                      a suitable location there but it is not confirmed that we are moving there
                      yet. We will post up the information once anything is confirmed.

                      If we do move to AMK, it means that we will still have 3 branches, not
                      4: AMK/Yishun (either 1), Bukit Timah and Paya Lebar

                      TAS

                        Hi TAS,

                        That is great, do let me know if you sell your vocab book. I also read abt you moving to AMK (maybe), that is wonderful news for me as my MIL stays there and on weekends, we troop down to AMK. May I know if it will be near the hub or mrt?
