Adam Khoo Learning Centre - Discussion

Hi Jtparent,


I am also looking for a Math tuition programme for my DS, P4. Does Adam Khoo do Math? I called up a moment ago, and enquire about their JEI/PSLE Math programme, they seems lost.

Hi,


One thing to note is this:’ If it sounds too good to be true, or sounds like a miracle, it probably is’

These are all marketing strategies. Adam Khoo is a businessman talented in marketing, totally. He has the ability to package and utilizes the economies of scale to ‘trick’ parents into signing up with them.

My apologies to Neo, but can you elaborate further on your DS/DD who enrolled into Adam Khoo?

There are posts that are replied in favour to tuition centres that are generated by the same person. So please do some checking like the no. of posts that the person has made and whether it is leaning toward something. Yeah.

I am not saying that Adam Khoo methodology is no good or anything, but it definitely sounds too good to be true. Miracles don’t happen over ten weeks or few days, they require a combination of work and encouragement. And all these will take time. Doesn’t happen overnight. Perish that thought.

I agree with you. In this forum there are also people promoting brain training with all kinds of claim like able to read blind folded. Feel sad for mummies that have paid hard earned monies to there operators.

I was proscatinating on wheather should I send my P1 girl to the camp. I know now the answer is NO, i should better save up the money for some motivational seminar in the future for her.

My girl is just a normal child who doesn’t like to do school work, but she continue to do the work whenever I press her without complain simply because she doesn’t want to see me angry. I know her lacking is on motivation and not so much on educational as like some forumner mentioned here, if it is the educational factor, we should look for tuition centre.
I guess at the end of the day, it’s still boil down to how much time are we willing to spend with our child plus how patience are we when we’re faced with our own child.

My son attended it last year before PSLE. His verdict Scam. He said he did not learn much and said it was a waste of time. They just make them repeat phrases like brain washing Neuro linguistic programming. By the way my son has dyslexia. All the way was failing maths . Being a desprate mother I sent him. But after the programme no other improvement. Untill during PSLE he broke down under pressure refused to do anything. So no use. Somehow he cleared PSle with Eng B Maths C and Sci B. :nailbite: He could choose Exp or N(A). We chose N(A) at a neighbourhood school. It was his choice. This SA1 he scored 95/100 for maths, 89/100 science 76/100 for english and all A1 for the other subjects. How ? No tuition. Not adam khoo. Self motivation, right pace stress free environment. Happy Child = Good results.

I agree with Gopal, Happy child=Good results.


Hi, Jtparent,

If your child has specific problems that needs addressing, sending your child to tuition centres that conduct 20 students classes WILL NOT HELP. Just imagine, your child cannot do challenging questions. There are 10 students who don’t know what is going on in school and 5 who already know everything. the other 4 are just like your child.

Worse, if the teacher they hire are inexperienced (most of the time) they just dangle the fundamentals, ask your child to do some worksheets that everyone has the exact same copy and call it a day.

The tuition centre earns $240.00/month/child = $4800.00/month/class
The inexperienced teacher earns $30/hr = $60/2hr class = $240.00/ month /class
Your child = NOTHING (Just sit in through the motion and waste time)
You = Hard earned monies GONE.

Parents who have been through this SCAM. Please HAIL with me. Thanks. STOP this crazy money making groups. We all know who are the big players in this industry: Ada- Kh–, Stal—d… who else?

Sigh. Parents, please take note
