Comparing Math Enrichment Programmes

[mummy so kiasu]

What is the fee like? Both Andrew Er & Onsponge. It seem that Andrew Er is already not as popular. The "in" thing now is Onsponge.

24hr-mum:

someone told me that if the child is scoring 80 marks range, can go onsponge.

if the child score above, no need to go
if too low, also cannot go

It is suitable for those who are grade B & A. Not for those who got grade C.

I cannot comment on Andrew Er as i did not try the lessons before but I really find Onsponge helps my dd . In just 4 months , they helped my dd in achieving A* in PSLE .


Her paper 2 has improved a lot .

hi panickymum,

thanks for your comment. I had decided to give Onsponge a try. Ur dd had done well, :congrats:

Btw, may i know which branch is ur dd at?[/quote]


She did not go to the tuition class . She went to the Goldhill plaza for the master Maths for P6. We missed out the module one . She only takes module 2 and 3 . But my dd told me that she picked up alots of technique and stradegy . The coaches there are helpful and will stay back to answer her questions .

Hi All,


i wondering any of you heard about 1 of the book can master for P1 - P6 to teach and guide our child throughout. and this book only can buy it from website. I lost the contact and the website which the lady told me last year.
When i went for my MS office class.

It’s very useful and really explain very clearly and teach the parents how to teach their kids.

Thanks!
Cheers!

Dear M@y,


We would like to help you, but your post makes very little sense. Would you care to explain further?

Thank you.

Dear Parents,

I am looking for a full time maths tutor for my P2 dd. Does anyone have any recommendation for AMK area? Thanks:)

Dear Parents,


My girl is in P3 this yr but since P1 she did not do very well (Band 3) for her Maths. She is with Kumon since K2 and has no problem doing long multiplication and long division even fraction. But don't know is it she is too lazy to analysis the question or she don't understand what is the question asking. She has problem doing problem sum. But she can do very well for her English (Band 1) so I really don't understand why

Had tried 1 to 1 tuition but seem like it doesn't suits or works on her. She can sit there and dream....... for 2 hours. If you scold her she will then her mood will be affected then so called can end the lesson already.

Now was thinking to try for a small group tuition. May I know which centre is good which they follows closely to the school syllables. If the centre can focus more on problem sum will be BEST

Please help me :?: :?: :?:

Switch her over to Sakamoto Maths. Kumon is good to prepare kids from pre-school to lower primary, via "drilling" and speed timing way. Sakamoto can help her. Another solution is Onsponge Maths, Also rather popular.


Sakamoto Maths max size: 6.
You can visit any Sakamoto centre, request to see their sample p3 qns. See to what extent they practise problem sums. Do likewise to Onsponge Maths centre. You also ask them how they teach students, to help them understand. From there, you decide.

Hi phtthp,


thanks for your reply… went to the sakamoto web but not much informations. So they follow school syllables. So they are not like Kumon will do their work based on their level is it?

JEI is focus on problem sum ONLY :

Maybe you can tell DD the problem sum is not a math question but a english question and ask her to answer.... hope it helps..
