Why is Tuition Necessary?
-
There are also parents who waited until one month before SA2. Then they got a tutor for their child who had been constantly failing very badly throughout the year. How can the tutor help in one month? :roll:

As a tutor, I can honestly tell you that the first initiative comes from parents. Usually when parents are actively involved, children have a higher tendency to do better. Tuition is not meant to replace parental guidance. I have taught students whose parents had absolutely no knowledge that their child,who was already 11, was mildly autistic. So naturally it was a shock to them when I pointed out that their child was slightly different. Don’t leave it to the tutor who spends 2hrs a week with your child tell you about your child. Parental guidance and tutoring should work in tandem with one another.

Hi there, I am staying at Bedok North, anybody out there got good recommendation for english and Math Home Tutor for Primary One ?

Tuition is a must .
Classroom ratio too big for a teacher to cope.
Students not paying attention and teachers mostly can't bother. Unless you sent countless emails and they find you very kiasu :yikes:
Maths these days are beyond our reach unless you are a Uni graduate or very very good in maths.
It has nothing to do with being kiasu , all of us want the best for our children.
望子成龙 ：）
Get a good tuition centre that has good materials and good teacher.
It is a must these days.
We pay peanut to the school fees, so, we cannot expect so much.
Tuition is a must if one can afford them.
I reduce my personal spending and give all to my children tuition fees.
They cost me 2k per month but I have no complain because I want the best for them . -
Hey tutor 21,
I agreeD with you.
Some parents are so irresponsible . They ignore the kids or refuse to acknowledge for the fact that the kids are \" slightly different from the norm\" . Sad.
If autistics kids are not treated, they pose a threat to the school classmate .
They turn violent and hurt the following classmates .:(
Sometimes, parents will tell the teacher not to tell the classmates about the kids syndrome . Can you imagine what will happen to your poor kid who happen to sit next to him.
Kanna punch , Kanna push, kana scream at ...
Gosh ! Nitemare ! Xiao la :stupid:
And best of all, teacher knew the syndrome and punished the innocent one.
I am telling the truth here because it happened in my son class .
Stupid idiotic form teacher.
Conclusion, parents please your kids for treatment and not hurt the innocent one . -
Parents cannot cover all subjects la:(
Open up their maths problem sums p5/p6, you be amaze ... What a discovery !!
So so difficult ...
Gone are our days..My days of course...born in 1960s ... So easy those days..think about it.
My poor children have to deal with all these challenging questions .
I feel sorry for them .
Seek help ! Tuition la:)
P6 are expected to do secondary 1/2 questions.
Crazy la:( :siao: -
Those parents who sent for tuition last mins really not kiasu 害死人。
On the other hand, maybe these kids are super smart. Last min revision and can help save lots of money… -

Were you there in the class?Was your son the affected one?
I can understand your concern for your child but do you really have the full picture?
To use such harsh words on the teacher or the child in a public forum is not appropriate.
Do note even the autistic child is innocent just like mine and yours.
Please note we live in an inclusive society, so yes every child needs an equal opportunity at school so lets have some empathy. Focus on the concerns you have for your child and how the teacher can better handle it, dont let it become a hate game just because a child is not \"normal\". -
The whole class was a victim.
Ok.
It was the teacher fault.
She was bias.
Children got punished because of it. Fair?
I don't have anything against autistics but the whole class was kept in the dark for whole year.
Fair?
:siao:
This boy went around kicking , pushing and shouting ... Fair to the rest of the 30boys.?
Ridiculous !! -
Tuition is to help students maintain or improve their current grades therefore it is not a must. As a tutor, I have some parents who tell me that they would be very satisfied if their children can pass - dont need good grades. Others like my uncle demand a minimum of 95% for all subjects from her primary school daughters or prepare to face the rod. Amazingly, they dont have to go for tuition at all and do meet the standard set by their father.
Whenever I do relief teaching, especially in secondary school, I always tell the students that so long you are comfortable with the kind of grades you are getting then everything else doesnt matter. However, one must know the consequences of that grades.
Having lousy grades meant fewer open doors, lower qualification levels and thus lower salary in future. When most secondary children realized that getting them $2000 monthly salary is not going to buy them sports cars and/or condos, they start to rethink about the need to study.
At the end of the day, everything boils down to motivation and the will of the student. The busiest of all people are always the most effective. I remember how my friend in NS told me that the president scholar for our year was not only great in his studies, he had a diploma for piano and a competitive player for water polo. His girlfriend was also a president scholar and a competitive dancer. Family, relationship, academic, music and sports, what else can you ask for right?
