      [quote="debbiehsl"]Hi, does any parents out there put their kids at Hanlin Language School at Bt Panjang Plz? Is the centre good, teaching methods effective?



      Hi
      not sure abt the chinese standard taught in hanlin but my kid was at the same centre but on English programme. I dun recommend at all, wasted almost a year there…the teacher merely gave him worksheets photocopied from assessments books and top sch papers for him to practice. If there was mistakes, just asked them to correct. Din bother to explain unless the kid ask…I should have pulled my kid out earlier but looking for another centre was difficult so I let u finish till he completed the yr end exams. Moreover, lately, i realised the monthly fee is more expensive than the Mind stretcher:<
      I tink the teacher is a china lady…u may want to ask how she teaches the class…

        Yes. Berries for weekend class are alway full. They have their exiting students that have the priority to promote to next level. Even the weekdays night class and all full. So no choice I go for the late afternoon class in Bukit Batok branch which is nearest to my place.

        Yes..the centre is always full...i managed to put in my younger one with Berries this year on sat..phew, queue for more than half a year.
        My elder one has been with Berries since K2,now he is P3, continuing with P4 next year. tink, he has been with the same teacher since P1. I like the teachers there, find them pretty committed...

            Before we enrolled my kid w Berries, we went C Win to take a look cos it is juz opp our flat, v convenient. In the end, we din choose C win cos my kid does not like the "look"of the place. Not sure good or not but since the kid does not like, no point going…
            I suppose u stay ard BT Panj, you can try Hans Language at CCK. The center is new and I quite like the teacher there, v observant. But we just started a few mths so I cant tell wht it benefits my kid.

                Hi, did anyone of you try Busy Bees at Rail Mall, Upp Bt Timah. I send my ds and dd there. Their specialist is on writing. So, essay class is a MUST for upper primary. My ds and dd have gone through Berries and EduPlus. DD still finds Berries and Busy Bess better than EduPlus. Try and enquiry. Ask for the materials and you can tell by the standards.

                  Seems like Berries is totally dominating in this factor… was looking to admit my child into Applepie. Any review on them?



                  Thanks

                        Hi Hoylj
                        I tried enrolling Busy Bees before I enrol my kid w Han Lanugage for Compo…heard it is of very high std. But the weekend classes are full, put on waiting list but no news. So, we enrol him w Han Lanugage.
