There is entry test for all level to determine kid ability. It is a Short Test compresses gram n vocal.

hihi, tas has a short test for all, this is not to determine if child can enter, but rather to know where the child is so they can recommend the ‘right’ class. I have not known them to reject a child becos he got the wrong answers.


And yes, what DS knows or has learnt may not translate to exam results. I know he has been reading well etc, but during half year, it did not translate to good results (not what I expected). But he is only in P1 with no SAs. In the long run, I still hope that the efforts will translate into numbers or at least better understanding.

Just to share the experience at LL, my girl being average student was doing science n English there for a year. I pulled her out caused I was surprised her standard had not improved n I was paying so much. Worst still, her science concepts was not strong and started coaching her myself to prepare for exam last year. I guess the ctr is only good for above average students!

$388 for term of 10 lessons. U need to call their admin to check if any vacancies for P3 classes and timeslot for the different centres. They have AMK, Paya Lebar and Bukit Timah, so depending on which is more convenient for you.

Hi suz888, I think you may have to consider if the timing works and if there is vacancy. So far I have not heard anything bad about their female teachers.
