The Alternative Story (TAS) - Discussion

[limsm]

Hi,


Anyone knows if the TAS creative books are sold more cheaply to TAS students? I am thinking of signing up my dds at their centre and not sure if I should buy their books at Popular first.

hi limsm,


Answer is yes. They have student price for their own kids, although I can’t recall if the price at popular during bookfest/expo sales are cheaper.

Go try out their lesson first - I do like that first FREE trial. Nonid to commit unless your child is comfy in there.

Hello, is there anyone having kids enrolled in TAS Bukit Timah branch for English? I understand there are many good feedbacks for their Ang Mo Kio branch and teachers, not sure whether their teachers in Bukit Timah have the same quality? Can anyone share please? Thanks.

What I know is most of the teachers rotate between the centres so the good teachers at AMK also teach at Bukit timah. I personally heard of these 2 teachers that are good at Bukit Timah, teacher mabel and teacher mae

Thanks a lot ccgoh.

Are your kids with these teachers? in which grade? I'm looking for a tuition center for my P3 boy to enhance his English. Is TAS really helpful to improve school marks? How do you think it compares to TTL?

My kid is not under them, my kids are under teacher elaine and teacher martin now. I know about these two teachers from friends. TAS helped to bring up my kids marks. Esp for their compo and compre.

TLL is good from what friends say but they do not go through things that will come up for exam. They expect the kids to know it already and so they do more enrichment stuff. If your kids are coping well with exams and you want them to be enriched, I think TLL is right for you but if you want help in coping with exams, then I think TAS is better for that purpose.

From what I know, also rotated, I know teacher elaine teaches there and at AMK also. Teacher Phebe also. I don't think they have teachers who solely just teach at paya lebar.
