              How about ICR at Chong Pang branch? Any good teachers to recommend for beginners? Or is there any other good phonics center around this area? TIA.

                Hi,


                My DD2 is 4yo and has gone for assessments at both ICR and LCentral. I’m still undecided which centre to send her to. Although I prefer ICR as DD1 completed their TCS-ICR levels and I find them good, their available timeslots don’t complement our schedule and they are more pricey than LCentral.

                Anyone who’s familiar with both ICR and LCentral programs can share if LCentral’s teaching method is effective and phonics curriculum of Launchpad and Liftoff as/more comprehensive as ICR’s?

                Thanks!

                  Hi,


                  I feel that ICR is still much better than LCentral. ICR is more comprehensive, better established.

                    Hi is there anything in ICR which is not covered by LC? I went to see LC material and found them comprehensive..

                        For those living near Sembawang, there is a home based phonics class taught by a teacher who used to teach in ICL and some international schools.


                        My gal has been attending her class for more than 2 months (K1 level), and she enjoyed her class. She bring her worksheets home everytime and I like the simple materials that are used (eg, short vowel A & E, long vowel A & E etc). She is also given short poems which (somehow) she likes to read over and over again. Hardly any homework to bring home (which I like ! 🙂 though we are supposed to revise the worksheets at home and read (any) story books to cultivate the love of reading.

                        She is currently looking for students to start new N2 class next year.

                        I am unable to give differences between the way she teach and ICL's since my gal has not attended ICL before.
