How much do you spend on the kids' tuition/enrichments?
-
The other thread is regarding preschool. P1 is generally lower as there is no sch fee. So this money can be spent on other enrichment.

I lack enough patient too my DD, thus I think it's a good way to let her join team to learn something...[/quote]I'm sure she is learning, lucky girl!
:!: The most I spent this year is a few hundred on assessment books and story books.Fettuccine:
[quote=\"mrswongtuition\"]How old is your child? There's a thread that shares how much we are spending on our kids.
$700 is considered 'low' based on what other parents posted. Most of them spending like $1k and above...
Forgot to mention, my DD is learning ballet at a CC (about $100/mth). I thought of getting a private violin teacher for my DD, but not sure where to look for a good one.
I guess it will be harder to save money next year, cos DS is going to be P3. I am not sure if I can cope with teaching a toddler, the P1, and the P3 at home. Most likely will have to \"outsource\" too... -
If the child is enjoying and not stressed up by all the enrichment, and financially you’re not stressed up by the amount, then I guess it’s alright. $700 for so many things is not ex. I know many others who spend a lot more.

Heard from friends before, there is teacher from Singapore Ochestra teaching violin at Tampines area (maybe Tampines mall?) -

Thank jce...sometimes I feel stress instead of my DD. I'm worry whether she can take so many things or not. It seems she enjoy most of things. Maybe I can cut the one she is not so interested in. Like Biligual... -

Next year if time permits, may be continuing with swimming and piano. Both stopped for quite a while, no time. May be adding french. Still trying to work out her schedule. I'm trying to pursuade her to drop Orchestra in school. Twice a week practice is taking up too much time -
