The Alternative Story (TAS) - Discussion

[hquek]

My son been with them for 2nd year now. Actually the admin stuff quite alright, I always see she is very friendly with the small kids waiting for their big bro/sis to finish classes.


Class size is big I agree. Not too happy about that, but so far DS is still happy in class and he doesn’t quite care about class size. He doesn’t have school tests but I think he is doing fine.

Both my kids have been with TAS for 2 years, oldest one is no longer with them as he is in secondary one and we are trying to wean him off tuition. I think the big class size can be an issue but if the child can connect with the teacher and understand what is being taught, that for me is more important. My kids have been in centres with small class sizes but did not benefit much as the syllabus was not as structured and teachers not as dedicated.


I have known the TAS admin staff from the time when they were small till now and I find that they are still friendly and personal. Getting them on the phone can be a problem, that probably is due to them having more calls so I sms them or email them. They are prompt in replying to emails.

But if you feel your child prefers a small class size than it is better to find a centre that has that.

Ya. I also feel that the class size too big. I withdrew my girl after one year with them. But I do agree that they materials are good. May be it is just that my DD cannot benefit from such a big class size.

Hi TAS,


I am a parent with children at TAS but I have friends who are not in TAS and they would
like to buy the vol 2. However they cannot make it on Sunday, some of them have church etc.
Is it possible to have the launch on another day as well? However, i perfectly understand if it is not possible as you are selling it at Popular. But just would like to know cos it would help them prepare their kids for SA1 too. Or possible for me to buy for them on another day beside sunday? I can come down on monday to get.

Anyone would like to share and get 10 books, it is $15 instead of $21 for non-TAS parents if we get it on sunday. Pls pm me if you are interested to get 10 books. I can meet you next week in the North area (AMK, Bishan, Novena) to pass the book.
