      Parents have no obligation to disclose their kids' school or psle results to tuition centers. Just don't disclose if don't want to be used as free advertisement.


      Probably that's why Mindstretcher offer incentive :evil:

        Teachers will ask the kids... classmates will discuss...

        All we can do is let them know we do not allow them to use our kids results for advertisement (be it free or paid).

          There is a clause in Mindstretcher terms and conditions that allows them to use students for advertisement. Just don’t disclose result if don’t want to be used as advertisement. Doubt they can force students to disclose anyway

            Mindstretcher called after results was released, I only gave them the big picture but refused to disclosed DS actual t-score. They inly tried to persuade but didn't force.

              I know of other centres that also rewards ipads to top performers. Sometimes its hard to know which one suits us best, so word of mouth can play a big part. From experience, I like mindstretcher more than some of the other competitors (that should be remain nameless).

                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?

                Hi,
                My Daughter was in Mindstretcher- P2 (CCK-Teck whye center) in 2012, I took her to another neibhouring tution center after six months because Mindstretcher is not worthful in quality aspects what they advertise .I must say that she was not improved but found confused on solving problems.In some situation, We have also experienced that teachers were changed frequently and no make up classes were provided in the center.

                      Their curriculum is standard across all centres, personally I’ll choose mind stretcher over Mavis.

                        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
                        Can anyone verify if it's true that some of Mindstretcher younger students have left and gone to Just Education for tuition at certain branches?
