Dear Mummies,

Seem like TAS is quite popular in Kiasu parent. I am planning to send my girl for english enrichment class. Me not sure whether to send her to TAS / LP / LW / TLL
Any mummies care to share after sending TAS, does your child benefit from it / result is better?

My kids are in TAS and one of the centre you mentioned but that cannot be named. Both are good, my kids prefer tas but I still keep them in the other centre as they have been there so long and being ks, I am scared if I remove their marks may go down. I would say LW more for lower pri (based on feedback from friends), LP seems good but no personal experience. Anyway whatever center you go to, a lot also depends on the teacher teaching your kid.

thank you so much for the feedback

I like TAS but classroom size is big, i don't think my girl can concentrate..she is very talkative and cannot focus... (how i wish is less than 10 as i don't mind paying a bit more)

heard from friends that \"the centre cannot mentioned\" and TAS teachers are fresh graduate...not sure whether is true or not...

[Monster Mummy]

Yes, the TAS teacher is mostly fresh graduate but I believed that they are enable to engage the kids during class. Personally, they also able to monitor the kids and feedback to us if there are anything need our attention.

[Working Mummy]

Agreed with glendt that it all depend on the teacher. I withdraw mine because he refused to go. Now he is with another centre. He enjoys his lessons and I received feedback regularly on his performance.

Yes both have fresh grads among them. But some of the fresh grads are very good. Btw the centre that cannot be named's classes are also quite big. My kids prefer having more pple in class because it seems more interactive.

Hi,


Anyone knows if TAS still answers English questions over here?

Hi,

You can ask them on their facebook page, I see parents and kids asking them questions there. I think they could be more active in answering questions there.

Hi,


Anyone went for the parent's workshop held recently? I was unable to go as my kids fell sick. I would like to register for the year end one. Was wondering how the workshop was like?

llshirley4, read your pm now.

Hi parents,


We have had a number of parents inquiring about our Parents' Workshop that is to be held at the end of the year. We have information on that at this link.

Hi there, may I have a referral for TAS too?


Have been delaying enrolling my P2 son given that he has a few other enrichments but seems that I can no longer delay any more.

Thanks a ton!
