Hi,


Do you send your kids to math olympiad class ? Or will the training/lessons be provided by PeiHwa?

Jennifer:

Supplementary lessons will start from tmr. Is this year earlier?

i wonder what is the purpose of the supp classes. is it an acknowledgement that the current school system or lessons plan is flawed? Why can't they fit everything within the school hours. if it is remedial classes for weaker students, i can understand.

Hi Dyh,

May I know which training center did you enrol your son in ? I heard maths hub is good.

It seems like the suppl classes are just a continuation of curriculum. My son told me he didn't benefit from last year's suppl classes...I should have taken him out to give him more time to rest.

This missing part still has to be filled up by sb at some other time.
