Any parents send their children to phonics class for K1? Any feedback?

NY1969:

Ja3, suggest you start looking ard, and look up for the best option as language takes time to pick up.

Thanks NY1969! I have decided to place him into MDM Tan Learning Centre for a try. Hope to see his improvement soon.. :slapshead:

Is toolbox cover compre as well ? My gals very bad in cloze passage. Now with just education. Worksheets actually not bad if only we can revise more after tuition. 24hr mum made sense too by saying other component can be guided using assesment books. Ms toolbox good ? Is the teacher really put effort in introducing fantastic phrases ? Pls advise, mummies. My gals both p3&p5 next yr. thanks Lot

Hi, any comment on Katong branch? That is the nearest branch to my place. I am looking at P3 Science as a friend highly recommend me to send my girl there for science. Reading some of the comments made on Maths, I am toying idea to send my girl to their maths as well.

Any feedback from parents Mindstretcher Maths is better or Just Edu Maths (in terms of their materials).

I heard that Just hires people to write their materials. Are these writers qualified and experienced teachers or are they just undergraduates or polytechnic students? What about Mindstretcher? Who wrote their curriculum? Anyone knows of any learning centres who engages experienced teachers to write and to teach in their centres?

My 2 gals in mind stretcher Sembawang for 6months and I didn’t see any improvement. The teacher will write on the whiteboard everytime then the children copy the answer that’s all…

Recently I went thru with her the worksheets then she unable to explain to me like mathematics questions etc. Quite disappointed… Both teachers frm diff lvl and they do the same kind of teaching. If I need someone to write the answers on the whiteboard and ask my gal to copy must as well I get anyone or even primary school student to do it! If my DH or myself got time to teach them I wun be wasting my money there… Will consider just education

Frankly, i don't like MS customer service (Bishan).

There is no CS in MS (Bishan)...I avoid going talking to the staff if I can (except for one of the admin staff (non-chinese), she is helpful..the rest of the staff - CMI, face so black and stern all the time
The teachers that taught my gal was good..she has been with her for more than 2 years, but she has left the center last month..I hope the replacement teacher will be as good as her..gotta monitor closely

Also they started charging GST around sep and last minute inform me about it… Anyway I won’t consider them again!

Yes ! GST was quite steep. I already pull my child out of MindStretcher, placed her in Just Education.
