Family has money, everything van be done.

So best solution is to do away with GEP, DSA, IP program. No need to spend money on buying a hot property near a hot school teaching hot skill. No need to pay for GEP or GAT coach. No need to hire a coach (coaching top sec school team) to DSA. No need spend more money to stay home to escape the rat race. A kid will excel at psle based on self motivation. If not try again at o and a levels, and not stressing out trying to achieve 3 points with 6 subjects at o levels. But do this without losing sight of where exactly the competition is from please. Hopefully with the right changes can we proudly announce our top scorers again.

Are we allowed to spend money to hire tutors if not motivated?

[quote=\"janet_lee88\"]If the kid has a mother who has PHD, is a SAHM, and can teach all subjects, then he/she will be homeschooled. Seriously, if I have reliable tutors who can coach all subjects, I will do that...then don't have to put up with so-so teachers, poor attitude ones...send child for ballet or any sport to socialize with others.

Homeschool very bo-hua though.
Cos homeschoolers cannot participate in the general S1 posting exercise :evil:

As I have said earlier, there is unhappiness about the current situation not only from mainstream parents, but also from parents of Geppers. Please avoid statements like these that can easily be construed as inflammatory when directed at entire groups of people. The discussion so far is highly constructive because there is mutual respect for everyone's points. We would very much like to keep it this way.

Thank you.

It is painful to be told the truth. People get very defensive and abuses starts coming up especially when those who that have benefited from an exploit is uncovered and attempts are made to close off the exploits.

Talk about GEP,
GEPpers parents ( Directed at the whole group) starts to say my kid is smart what. Talk about DSA, they say fair what just a bit slow only.
Talk about ASEAN scholar, because we Singaporeans no brains...
Can you show more than one post that states this to make sweeping statements?

This is but a very small sample of the defensive voices. Wait till the parents come back from their year end holidays.

After all the generalizations and sweeping statements , not a single hard fact to support it , not even rough statistics , you have the verve to talk about sheer ignorance and ulterior motives. Seriously :slapshead:[/quote]he is not the first and will not be the last

Oops. :shock: thanks for the reminder.
Next time I won't be so candid. I will learn from experts how to mask my answers & put it across using paragraphs. That should make my sharing more popular I hope. :rotflmao:
