Hi Lim72

Do u mind sharing with me where I can get this Home Tutor CD? All I hv are some model composition books fm Victoria Publications. I am also considering creative writing class but he is not too pleased abt it so I thought I will try asking him to write at home but sometimes lost the discipline when sch cca and sch work gets more frequent. Anyway, all I can correct for him are the grammer and sentence structure, punctuation. Writing style etc, i am not good at it as i really cannot write like that. He just passed for this very first chinese compo this yr. Hv not even see any eng compo yet.

Hi KSP and Champion
Do u mind sharing where u send them for the classes? Thank u.

Son did compo almost every week at tuition. Not full compo though, eg somtimes only conclusion, or only intro or short writing, but at least some prac. For cl, he sign up for cw, also doing part compo. No improvemt leh. Mummies coaching kids to do compo at home, how u guide ? Discuss first then get them to write?

dd attending 天下 for CL compo


i don’t think i can do it at home coz really lack of discipline, only when i pay for it and put it in my schedule then dd will be more disciplined to attend the lessons… dd will also finish the work given by the tutor…

another reason is i don’t think i’m the best person to teach her so better let the professional do it…

Not sure is it the one :?

[lim72]

I make it a point that he has to write one essay a week, either on sat or sun morning. So mentally he is prepared & knows that he can’t escape from it. Next, I will start with the cd. Each topic is only 5 to max 10mins. Luckily, he enjoys the lesson and find them interesting. Usually I will cover a few topics but not more than 30mins.


He will copy down what he had learnt onto a note book for future reference after each topic.

Thanks lim72!
I sent my son for a creative writing class but now quit as he didn’t like the teaching method.

Thanks for sharing!

So u let him write first then go thru cd.
I used to get him to do cl book review, but his cl tutor gave him a thicker book, so I still waiting for him to finish! Lol. My boy takes a long time to write 1 compo at home. N I will insist on 2nd draft usually. Very tedious. I go no stamina to contd after a while.
