Wow...I didn't know KSP PH thread provides free advertisements for enrichment centres!


I have only one word: BALANCE.

Seriously .... E3 is right .. Balance

Every child is special and has different needs. Each child learning ability is also different. Some are good in English others are good in Maths. Parents are the best persons to see tha gap within their learning journey and try to fill it. Different family also have different priorities. To some the child happiness is key and to others attitude. IN all, all of us want the best for our children.

I sincerely suggest we look into out children's lives, observe and see. Sometimes jumping into what is suitable for other childrens might not necessary be good for our own children. Only we will know what is best for them and what suits the family more.

Recently I spoke to an Ex-PHPPS elite students. I ask him what is the best way to motivate a child. He said .. once a child tasted fruit of SUCCESS .. he will be motivated. So it is up to us parents to inculcate the meaning of success to our children.

Success does not necessary just mean doing well in academic area.
Success can be in calligraphy, music, dance, gynm, etc each of these skills required focus and hardwork, not an easy skill to master.
Success can also mean being a child with good attitude and behaviour. Though not top in results but still can be very popular among his/her peers and teachers.

So .. it is a blank sheet. Customised something that suits your child and the family. It will take sometimes but you will find it. :celebrate:
OK .. so too long winded liao ...

Hmmmmm ....
Another Reason is the Ever Escalating School Fees Which Progressively Increase from Just above $200 per semester, increasing Every Term to Approaching $600 Now ....
Of Course the Charges R increased with Higher Grade, But It Used to B about $300+ a Couple of Years ago for the same Grade ....

Guess \"INFLATION\" has Really Catch Up FAST in ALL the EDUCATIONAL & ENRICHMENT CENTRES ....

should be of high demand, so can anyhow increase fee....

Demand is usually pretty high for NAFA.

I have been contemplating going back to school as Flexi-adjunct once dd3 settles into her Playgroup routine. So far, she is adjusting well but I, myself, end up making use of that time doing 'research work' for my girls. Time passed quickly and then they are all back home. My timetables at home run back-to-back like racing in a triathlon.

What about this? We all go to your house to save you from travelling? php is at time slot 1, periwinklejoy at slot 2, and me at slot 3?

Very tempting. Business comes to my doorstep without me asking. I didn't solicit, ok, must make this clear. I don't mind teaching kids with RICH parents but please spare me, 3 hours in the morning is barely enough for me to breathe... Here goes my potential income...:moneyflies:

Btw, :offtopic: I am only a PH parent, not a PH topic, ok?

Jennifer MIA cos she got bored...
