      From feedback in this forum (various threads), seems that they are good for creative writing…their only weekend class was full back in Aug. Just saw that another weekend class was opened. The class size is 6 and I was evaluating based on the teacher who will be taking the class. Each lesson is $55 for 1.5hours. At Holland close

          There’s a new place for Creative Writing… my friend kid tried it and said very good. Better than Learning Lab. Place is called Serena’s Greenhouse. Pls google and get contact. Was recommended by a parent in this forum - parent-in-west (I think).

              My DS has been with TAS’ creative writing class for 3 months. It is a 2 hrs class and is often extended for about 15 minutes for the kids to finish their compo within the class. It is more effective than TLL for the plain reason that this is a 100% creative writing class whereas TLL conducts a general Eng class that consist of many topics. Hence, it is probably a little unfair for parents to compare a pure writing class with TLL’s where compo lesson is not conducted as frequently. I feel that TLL is good for the total exposure.

                    Either they are very confident or they are very good. How can this be proven? I know of kids who underwent TLL and still ended up with abysmal results.

                      I've heard of such case too.. scary.. :nailbite:
                      but i guess if they dare give such statistics, generally shouldnt deviate too far off i hope 🙂
