      Hi TAS,


      For the Monday class, is it suitable for GEP students? I am helping my friend to ask, she is interested in the Eng programme on Monday for upper pri. TIA!
      Hi BigDad,

      For GEP students, most of the time, their papers focus mainly
      on creative writing, comprehension and compre cloze. In
      this class, it is for high ability students and we focus more on
      comprehension and compre cloze as compared to a normal class
      where we would cover grammar and synthesis in detail too.
      For classes for high ability students, we do cover these 2
      components (grammar and synthesis) but we do not focus on them
      so much as we would expect the students to have a good grasp of
      these basics already. In this sense, this class is suitable for GEP
      students.

        Hi TAS,


        Thanks and will send email.
        Hi Monster Mummy and CharleneX,

        We have received 2 emails from interested parents
        on the P2 creative writing class. I assume it would be the
        both of you. We would only open the
        class once we receive 4 emails for this level. We would
        hold open this slot for about 5 more days (to wait for
        2 more parents to email us to register for P2 creative
        writing for this slot) before releasing it as we also have
        parents asking for other levels.

        Thank you for your understanding.

        TAS

            You can go to their websites: thealternativestory.blogspot.com

            or thealternativestory.com

            I think the second website is their updated one..they will sell books there too, but it is still under 'renovation' so there is another website that you can go for info- the first one that I gave.

              TAS [list][/list]Hi TAS,

              I understand about that and my preferred starting date would still be in Next year 2011 if happen to accumulate 4 students.

              Hi TAS,


              I just have 2 more orders from my friends for your creative writing book…so can add the 2 to my previous order in the pm?

              Also I heard from my friend you sell story books with creative writing phrases extracted from the books? She says she bought Ark Angel by Anthony Horowitz from you and her son used the phrases for his compo exam and was praised by the teacher for his excellent vocab!

              May I know how I can get hold of your booklist?

                Hi TAS,


                I am interested in your storybooks and the phrases you provide too. Are the phrases for every storybook? Do you charge for the phrases?

                  Hi thinking,

                  We have 3 centres, one is at Yishun (most prob moving
                  to AMK the beginning of next year), one at Bukit
                  Timah and one at Paya Lebar.

                  You can go to our website: thealternativestory.blogspot.com
                  which jeestan has kindly provided and look for the
                  schedules and other related information.
