      Wow! That's almost $100 per lesson! No wonder they can pay fresh grads working there monthly salary of $3,500 ....


      Is it really that good to pay that kind of $? Almost 4 times more than the usual ones.

      Is there any difference in quality between the one in United Square vs the Mountbatten Square? Is the latter packed too, aka with waiting list?
      DD enjoys their lessons very much and for Science, we like their notes.

      I believe both United Square and Mountbatten have equally good teachers but United Square definitely has a longer waiting list that Mountbatten... maybe because of its location? Parents can relax in cafes or indulge in retail therapy while waiting for kids thus time passes more quickly as opposed to Mountbatten where we still have to drive out for a drink. πŸ˜‰

        I think it's more like around $60 per lesson; which is 50% more expensive than average. Though my ds is not in TLL, I must say that their roll of honour impresses me greatly.

        Sunnyvale? Are you in the IT field?

        A lot of consciousness and 'strategy' from the parent ... it is SOOOO difficult to be parents nowsdays!
        Actually it also depends on the parents' expectation.

        If can bring ourselves to aim slightly lower, will definitely be less stressful for all.

          Die-lah... think my ds fails the 1st point! How to move on to the rest :stupid:

          Same for my DS. Pt 1 - half mark cos fail for Chinese, pass for Science, English and Maths ok ok only. Pt2 - Pt 9 all fail. However, Pt 10 will be half mark cos he can definitely PLAY HARD.

            Haha, I do sometimes, on my iphone πŸ™‚ Maybe that's me! Call me out next time if u see it again, okie? Or maybe send a post at that instance asking who is in the train NOW πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„

            I was also wondering if the person Mrsbongz saw was me! I use HTC phone, so that's the diff from JRLam. Since the 3 of us stay in cck, we might have been the sardines packed in the same can (ie train) before. Like what JRLam says, why not post a msg next time u see someone surfing PH page again & see if anyone responds?
            Otherwise I've an idea, you can say a password eg bongz, & if that person is me, I'd acknowledge with another 'bongz', & viola! We met each other! Keke πŸ˜‚

                    Why the need to come up with more clues? You mean none of us got it rite so far?

                    The more I think about it, the more I think my answer of Arkansas is a good guess leh. It's the land of rivers and there's actually a famous river called Buffalo River. But then, Illinois is known as the Prairie state. Ok, think I'm over-analyzing here. :skeptical:

                    Yes, it'll be good to double-confirm our guesses with more clues. :imanangel:
