      The problem is my son doesn't like to go to tuition.I can afford a cheap tuition.

      He said learn from his T and Teach him.But no MT PTM in my school and they put their email id in their website,only HOD's id there.My son refused to bring the school diary to T.

      can try to Email to sch address to ask for teacher's email address.

        Yup, she was totally cruel to do that to a child, and her student. When hubby and I met her for PTM, naturally it wasn't 'shiok'. She was also the FT. There was absolutely no reason why she had to make him stand in front of the class. What's wrong with a parent asking what will be tested for CA? :mad:

        I am not a teacher...however, if every parent were to ask the teacher what will be tested for CA, then the teacher will be spending a lot of time answering these emails and naturally they will not be happy about it.

          Some schools has proper system.they put in the booklet what will be tested.its very helpful to parents and the kids as we reduce our stress.
          Schools think that their responsibility,in the end parents and kids struggle to do revision.l also don't understand why they schedule properly and inform the kids early.these are the things shows all schools are different.

            If they put in the booklet and nobody ask.
            No right to show ur unhappiness to a kid.
            If ur collegue tell about ur work progress to ur boss,u would angry with her.
            I would separate work and friendship.

                  4) at PTA last year, this teacher said she has no idea why I need to see her about my dd and I was like :siao: teacher.

                  Your dd must be doing well in class, so the teacher saw no need to meet you.

                  My son weak in MT,though T doesn't find anything to tell me to improve. :? She just asked me to send tuition. :yikes:[/quote]It was my dd MT teacher who called me to advise on hw to improve dd MT, dd failed her MT. The teacher didnt ask me to send her for tuition (maybe because dd is in neighbourhood school ? šŸ˜‰ ) instead she told me to help my dd but i told her that idk Chinese so cant teach at all i just send dd fr tuition, she said i can learn just like her when first time came frm china didnt know english but together with her son learn english by them self :scratchhead: she spoke to me just like a motivational speaker motivating me to try n not to give up... i bet she doesnt know that chinese is the most difficult language on earth ( to me )

                      After we complain in KSP about Teachers asking us to get tuition, from now on Teachers will all say no need tuition but PARENT NEEDS TO HELP. Instead of resolving the root problem of insufficient teaching, teachers are advised to refrain from telling parents to get tuition?

                      Tutor teach or parent teach - same difference. Those who can't teach, pay others to do so. Those who can't teach and can't pay... oh well...

Necessarily, this will translate into patchy quality from different schools.
