                  I am planning to send my sons (5 & 6 years) to CMA Punggol. Can anyone help in answering the following qs:


                  * What are the pros and cons by sending both at the sme time?

                  * Any discount for sending 2 kids at the same time?

                  * Which teacher is better? btw, can we choose a teacher?

                  * I enrolled my sons in SKCC Abacus - Chinese Basic Module but it keeps posponing, what is your view on classes organized by CC as compared to CMA.

                  Thanks a lot,

                  Confused Mom :thankyou:

                      As both your kids are quite close in age gap, I think it should be ok to send both in the same class at the same time. Save effort and travel time together. Can also motivate and do both homework together. Cons will be both may end up distracting each other.

                      There is discount for sibling, but to enjoy 1st time discount, need existing member referral. Please refer to my PM for details. Note, need to provide details before register else no discount.

                      You can choose teachers but you need to know timing and teacher for beginner's class (usually limited choice). Suggest you talk to centre about trial lesson.

                      CMA syllabus is more robust and kid-friendly compared with some other abacus classes (I compare with my other kid's who used to attend another centre). CMA is also based on individual pace, and kids progress at own pace with teacher teaching each kid individually in class. Kids who are faster can progress to intermediate class anytime, and does not need to \"wait\" for others, and intermediate class is always on. Some CC abacus class has issues with continuity as it progresses, due to drop-outs over time and they conduct lesson for whole class.

                      Hope this helps
