It was in pri 4. which was why I found it weird

This question has been on my mind for some time. Need to get it out of my system. :oops:

When parents sent their kids for tuition/enrichment classes. It's based on their marks obtain in exams or ???? and what marks should/would the kid obtain, so they need tuition/enrichment? Roughly what age would you send your kid to tuition/enrichment? Individual tuition or group tuition?

[Imp75]

I can't speak for the rest but for myself, as long as my child crosses my hurdle that I think she can manage without tuition, I would not send her to tuition. It all depends on whether I think my child needs help or not. To me, tuition is to help the child with difficulties and not an avenue for the child to score one more point. But the way I see it now, every child seems to go for tuition in one way or another so you'll have to see whether you'll follow the herd mentality

[Icymummy]

the thing is, how does one determine his/her kid needs tuition? like scoring how many marks? I’m "fighting" hard within myself not to send my kids for tuition. Do you send ur kids for any tuition?

[Imp75]

if my kids score band 1 for all subjects I think I’ll be satisfied, no need to be the top few in class or standard. I currently send her to Chinese only because my Chinese sucks, can’t gave her coaching on my own
