or is giftedness all in Nature’s hands ?
or through attending enrichment classes ?
what is ‘Giftedness’ ?
this talk aims to address questions as well as to discuss practical strategies to uncover every child’s unique gifts, strengths and natural inclinations.
Christabel Hong, a counselling psychologist, and her 2 grown up children, Lisabel and Marcus, will be the speakers for this 2 hrs interactive talk.

as well as from growing up years, concepts that will benefit parents as they seek to develop their child’s talents and learning potential.
time will be given to Q&A, where parents can hear views not just from the professional’s perspective, but from the children’s point of view as well.

dear Newton parents with kids facing learning difficulty,
one parent (justcoping) just shared that tr Gail from I Creative Learning (ICL) has helped her son overcome speech delay issue successfully. Her son is now reading pretty well. You may want to approach tr Gail, to help your child.
feedback on tr Gail is - she's very patient, and willing to go out the extra mile to help the poor child. Seems like she's highly regarded by many mommies. Very hard to find such good teacher nowadays:-

ICL school fees are reasonable too.
