Comparing Science Enrichment Programs

[jeslyntoh]

24by7_mum:

I am thinking of enrolling my kid for PSLE science preparation class.


Would greatly appreciate if anybody can provide feedback on either Mindchamps PSLE Success or Science Heuristics.

The Mindchamps PSLE Science program helps my child strongly in the open ended questions and has help him move from 80 to 90.5 marks in his prelim. The experiment based learning has also help him to understand the concepts better. If you want, you can pm me and I can introduce his coach to you.

As for the Science Heuristics, I have no idea.

Hi,


Anyone know Just Edu or Mindstretcher better for Science tuition?

Both centres are good. Both centres offer high achievers classes. Mind stretcher course fees are slightly higher than Just Education.

My child is also with Serena greenhouse. My gal say very detailed and clear explanation on the science concepts taught. Thumbs up!!!

do they do experiments, concept maps / mind mapping, followed by worksheets, inside the class ?
what's the max. class size ?

each session - is it 1.5 or 2 hours lesson ?

The kids do experiments in class to learn concepts, key words and answering techniques. Each session is 2 hours. The teachers are very passionate and dedicated and clear in explanations, like what kitty said.
