Which level did you buy leh?

I gave up buying challenging ones quite a few years ago. Before moving out of my in-laws place, I had all the time to coach my elder boy. Drilled him with Andrew Er's during his lower pri years, also cant guarantee full marks in his MA papers. Decided in the end, not worth the sweat.

Out of curiosity, I got the P2 one for ds to try. Though ds is prone to his share of carelessness, he is otherwise able to grasp maths concepts quickly so far. That's why I thought why not try something harder to test water, but turned out to be a nightmare ....

Different book then. I like a EPH Maths ass book which has \"4-in-1\" in the title.

Oh man, aren't we taking short cuts a bit too much here :lol: .

Brother Mark here is able to read every word because his son is in P1. When his son moves upwards, I doubt he will take note of any shortcuts or mistakes in our posts

No wonder .. do the P1 first lah ...
Remember after teaching concepts .. need to test them to ensure they know how to apply.

When time permits on weekdays, I tell hubby we go out for dinner to relax also rather than being stuck at home doing same old thing.

Last year I was stuck at home most of the time becos of my younger boy. I think I almost went bonkers as I was easily upset at the slightest issue. It was not a very pleasant year.

Our Sundays used to be Yoshinoya at Takashimaya...not anymore since P4 bcos of Jan & Elly classes. Switched son to Saturday class hoping to give him Sunday no classes but he preferred teacher on Sunday.
I went bonkers last year too...daughter in K2 was also very upset being stuck at home...can really go nuts.

Teacher-student chemistry is important. They will learn faster if they can work with their prefered teachers.

Aiyoh, brother Mark, your son is in P1 this year right ? How could you possibly get P2 ? Don't scare him lah. Relax this year, your turn to get kancheong will come.

So, I transferred him back to Sunday class again...although new classmates but teacher welcomed him with open arms.
