I understand that K***** once boasted to us parents that through his \"hard\" work in giving tuition he now owns 3 fully paid up landed properties.


I guess many of us parents have a stake in these properties.

Does anyone know how we can get our tution money back since his has definitely misrepresented himself!

Also, for those kids who have been tutored by a \"GEP expert\" and subsequently ended not in GEP, can the kids’ parents sue him?

I will be very disappointed if he can get away unpunished with 3 landed properties or more just like that.

There should be at least a few parents here engaged his service before. For those parents, maybe can gather and discuss the available options e.g. seek advice from Case, engage a lawyer together and share the cost.

Since he is so gifted in lying, IRAS should at least take a look at the income tax he paid for the past few years.

On page B2 of The Straits Times today - Case speaks out against private tutor. Kelvin Ong \"wondered how the consumer watchdog would be helping his pupils' parents pursue the case.\" Until now, he still believes he can get away?!? :mad: If so, there will many more Kelvin Ong in the market soon.

But is aristocare registered as a tuition center?

Could be the so called free lance tuition at home.

:scratchhead: Would those parents who have sent kids to him wanted to admit that their kids have been tutored for GEP and not get it, so they sought refund? I wonder how many of such parents would not want to surface this for \"face\" reasons, thereby allowing these \"fakes\" to get away with it

This is interesting and it reminds me of an experience:

There is this Eng tutor, claimed to be from a 2nd tier current sec sch teacher, who used her home to give tuition. She advertised \"XXX tuition centre\" (not sure if it is registered). When i called, she said she teaches from home and encouraged me to bring my kids along to her place to check out. It was in the west, a 3 rm flat (which i've no problem). The strange thing is, she charges \"registration fee\". hahahah.... she operates like a tuition centre which she wanted fees in advance (cant remember now if it is a term or a month), and a deposit. She asked us to complete a registration form.

I passed the form to my dds who spotted a few spelling mistakes (which you may think it is typo error)..... and grammatical mistakes in her \"terms and conditions\". Hahahaha..... English teacher!!!! no need to say, if my dds have to correct her English, we didnt proceed with the tuition

Thats why the relevant authorities (or anyone here can confirm) should check if this so called center is registered bec in its original website info before it was taken down and in this thread, it was mentioned that there is a $200 registration fee ( payable annually) and a deposit. So if it is not a tution center, is the Consumer Act that Case mentioned in ST applicable? If these are free lance private transactions, what kind of rules/law are applicable?

If you recall, in their website, Aristocare has 3 names as \"directors\" and \"principal\". Where are there? How come ST did not mention or interview all these directors?
