I heard of one kid with 3 maths tuition. One maths enrichment center. One tutor to teach/ guide school homework and another tutor to teach/ guide enrichment center homework :rotflmao:

How to squeeze in time to attend so many tuition? Very time consuming to attend tuition le.

wow.... my dd must be really relax then. She has only MT tuition and already grumbling

MotherHen:

Academic pressure from school is one thing, but I think pressure also comes from parents, who may have excessive expectations of their children and thus overburden them with tuition.

I agree with MotherHen's above statement! :goodpost:

After the last GEP screening tests on 24 August, DD1 (P3) came home told me,\" Mummy, xxx cried because she unable to finish the Maths paper and she worried her mummy will cane her! I give her the whole pkt of issue but still not enough; then I have to bring her to the toilet to clean up!\"

Such was a real scenario and I felt heart-pain for this girl who happened sat beside my DD1 :sad:

Oh my... poor girl.... The mother might have spent a lot of money sending this girl for some kind of GEP preparation class. Really heart pain for the girl.

It is P6. Something to do with some barcode thingy. If you guys really interested, i can share the actual assignment. I keep it for momento - a P6 assignment to be solved by a PHD holder. Xiao!! Apparently all my dd classmates cant do either. My dd has to teach them all after she got the solution from my relative. :slapshead:

I'd be interested to know if the teacher could solve it.

I doubt. At first she said she will spend some time discussing it with my dd. After that she said that she was too busy and said she should try herself. And she left it as that.[/quote]Sounds like she couldn't solve it. :rotflmao:

Hi Flowermonaster,

Dont worry. I believe they have different questions every year. Just spoke with my dd. This is \"AA = Alternative Assessment\", only P6 has it. It is graded, question set by MOE. After doing it, they need to submit to MOE.
PM me your email address and i can send to you for reference. Dont know how to attach document here leh. (I'm quite a comp idiot - lucky my dds do not have my genes)

And anyone who wants it for reference, just PM me. I will send.

For Maths AA this year, the p6 geps can choose one topic out of 7 to work on. And my ds chosen Pick's theorem..but don't ask me what is pick's theorem..I don't know

Hi parents who have asked me for the "Break The Code" question,


Those who are worried, dont kan cheong. The question may not repeat this year and even if it does, there are 7 questions to choose and your ds / dd may not need to do it. But if happen to be so coincidental, same question, i’m ok to share the question and the solution. But i must be honest that i need to ask my dd or my relative because i do not understand how it was solved (a little "PEN DAN" - stupid"). He explained to me but i confused
