The Alternative Story (TAS) - Discussion

[hquek]

SmallMedLarge:

I am very very interested to send my P2 child to TAS after reading all the good reviews.

Which is a better branch? Do they teach grammar or just focus on compre + compo. Anyone heard of Creative Campus in upper Thomson?

Understand TAS have english classes that covers both paper 1 & 2 (ie grammar, vocab, punctuation, compre and compo); and pure creative writing classes.

not sure what you mean by better branch becos I understand they manage centrally and the teachers travel all over the place. But I could be wrong on that count.

Sorry no clue on creative campus.

It depends largely on parents’ expectations too. While TAS is good, do not go in

thinking it is a miracle centre, no centre can be one. Need to work hand in hand with
teachers and the child must be motivated as well. For TLL which I sent my boy to for math, when I recommend for friends, some of them say they must get a certain grade if they
put in TLL but I always say that a lot depends on how much the child can absorb and
also how hard he works.

I do not know anything about creative campus beyond some rumours that it is started by
TLL teacher who left TLL.

For TAS branches, most of the teachers teach in more than one centre so all
are good in that sense, better to go for trial and decide.

May I know how long does the assessment take? And I heard there is a second branch at AMK from my friend, does anyone know the exact address, I would like to go down to take a look.

Hi worriedmumz,


Assessment just a couple of pages of english work to be done (and I think it’s mostly mcq or very short questions). The trial will be 1.30hours - same like regular classes.
