        Hifive, when I registered that time, the customer service told me that the max class size is about 8-10. Maybe there is a typo?? Lolz.


        All these while, my children classes did not exceed 8.. Except when they are conducting hands-on lab lesson for the students, there will be a few more students but normally not a lot. My children are in Sec 1 and Sec 3 this year. How about yours?
        Hi jambunanny

        Thanks for your reply. I'll check the info. again. My boy will be P6 next year.

            Hi Jambunanny

            Can I ask how old are your kids? And which subjects are they taking in the center? Look forward to hear from you... My girl is P5 next year... and her Sect B in Science is rather weak...dont know how to answer the question using the correct words and phrase!

              Hi Kay22,


              My kids now at secondary level doing maths and science at Smartlab Woodlands branch.Maybe you should called the centre and asked for the teacher’s opinion as to how they can help your child in science. There’s no harm in asking , right? In my opinion it all depends on the question ask and your child need to know the science term of keywords in order to improve her science.

                personally I had pretty good expereince with Mavis tutorial centre. I think they have a centre in woodlands at the 888 centre. you just check out their website

                What ??? you kidding me?? I thik you are just one of their staff helping to promote the tuition centre...My Kids was with MAVIS ( I seriously would not recommend it) ... quite sometime ago, but I get them to quit the classes. It SIMPLY HORRIBLE.

                Turns out that my elder kid only master \"Dai Dee\" (poker) in the class. Instead of improving her weak subjects. The teachers just simply walk in and out constantly, while instructing them to do their own revision. While my younger kid in a different class, can't understand what the teacher is teaching. The class is simply too noisy, all the students just chit chatting while the teacher just sit at his desk.

                (How I know??? I find it too hard to believe when my kids video it down in their handphone... That shows that there is are discipline enforced in classes... and that is how I find out)

                I wasted my money and trusted the wrong person for introducing me below standard tuition center
