Happy Saturday! Hope all families and parents have had a great start to the weekend We have just released an article for Singapore parents which discusses why some children may show understanding in tuition but yet struggle to work independently. During tuition, your child follows the explanation, answers questions and completes the worksheet. Yet when they attempt similar homework alone, they seem unsure where to begin. For parents, this can be confusing. If their child understood the lesson, why do they still need so much help? One useful distinction is the difference between following someone’s explanation and choosing an approach independently. Looking closely at the help your child receives can reveal what they need to practise next. Do give it a read and let us know your thoughts! Interested parents may also contact us through the following platforms for any tuition related enquiries: Website - www.educaretutoring.sg Instagram - @educaretutoringsg WhatsApp - +65 8893 4017 Email - [email protected] Educare Tutoring - Affordable & Quality Tuition Read more of our articles that highlight important considerations primary, secondary school and Junior College students

Update: Tallytide has had a big update since I posted. Boss battles: each island’s Big Quiz is now a showdown with a silly “Muddler” who boasts wrong maths. Every right answer is a hit. Bar models: in the Big Quiz, children can sketch their own bar model the way they would in school. It isn’t marked. Gloop levels up as your child teaches him, with a little power-up moment, and his thank-you stars buy him new tricks. Quieter: no more click sound on every tap. Still free, no ads, no sign-up: https://tallytide.pages.dev If your child tries it, I’d love to hear what they enjoyed and what confused them.

@thebottomsupblog I have one daughter, 27, married and one (the elder, 29!) who has never dated. My 2 cents worth: My husband and I always emphasised that the most important thing about getting to know someone (not just for dating purposes) was to have shared activities and values. This is harder when they have started work, so we encouraged school or church activities, volunteering etc. This way, you see the person when he’s not on his best behaviour or just focused on making a good impression on you. You get to see how he reacts when tired, disappointed, irritated, sick, etc. We also told them that how he treats other women is important - how does he treat his grandmother, mother, sister, maid etc? Is he considerate, polite? Because that’s how he will treat his girlfriend/wife when the initial romance wears off (which it will). This all comes before any actual dating. Apps weren’t a thing when my kids were teens, so no experience with that. Physical attraction - we always told them that that wasn’t too important. Spark - not so important initially, though liking and shared interests (i.e. friendship) would be important. After all, your spouse should be your best friend. Someone who ghosts should be written off altogether. As for boundaries, we were conservative. We said no single dating before 18 (and only after consulting us); group dates/activities until then. We instituted a “secret code”, just in case, though my girls never needed to use it, thankfully. This meaning that if they ever felt uncomfortable or in danger, they should call/message us the code, and we would pick them up or help extricate them. In general, I required them to tell me who they were going out with, where (at least in rough terms), etc., and until they were 18, curfew was 11pm. We were more flexible if we trusted the friends they were with, they had a safe way to get home or we were picking them up. My girls never minded (not much, anyway) the rules and advice - they knew we were concerned for their wellbeing. My daughter is the 3rd generation who met her husband in university/church. I know that doesn’t work for everyone (I have another unmarried daughter), but it is a good way to start.

Hi everyone, wondering if anyone here has experience finding tuition for International A Levels, especially CAIE Computer Science, EdExcel IAL Maths and CAIE Economics? Seems like most tuition centres in SG focus on the SG A Level and dont really have options for IAL… Would appreciate any recommendations or experiences with tutors or centres that cover these subjects. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! We are a group of students conducting a quick 5-minute survey for our project, and we would love to invite parents with children aged 6–16 to share their insights. We’re researching about your general opinions about educational games for your children, and garnering feedback for Greenhouse Games — a free, safe, and educational online gaming platform where kids can make the most of their screen time. They currently have a free trial running through October and it would be great if you and your children could try out! Access Greenhouse Games here: https://play.jalanjourney.com/go/ggwp Take the survey here (approx. 5 mins): https://forms.gle/mF78bxUcH7SeQhpG9 Your time and feedback mean a lot to us.
