Any thoughts?</p>

My p4 gal has been in their program since april this year. While I have not seen significant improvement in behaviour or studying habits, I have to admit she seems to be able to concentrate better especially when it comes to comprehension. And in general, I am more of the chin chye type, thus I have never really paid too much attention to her studies. <br /><br />Her maths tutor however feedback to me that she sees big improvement in the way my gal does her problem sums and is definitely more alert and sharper than before. And I think the good part is my gal enjoys going to the class and in fact was disappointed when I told her the program is only for a period of 10 months. She even asked me whether the program can be extended because she really loves the exercises that were conducted in the class. So, i do think that, as per all classes, it is really dependent on each individual child. I would have wanted to enrol my younger boy as well if not for the course fees which is about $2500.<br /><br />I do not log in to the forum often, so pls PM me if you have other questions. will try to help if I can <img src="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f602.png?v=f4f27f6278e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--joy" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":joy:" alt="😂" /></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1126557</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1126557</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[arielgetz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Oct 2013 09:20:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Thinker Box - Discussion on Fri, 31 May 2013 17:12:27 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">May I ask if anyone has gone through Thinkers Box to give some feedback?<br /><br /><br />Thanks</p>

When you confirm signing up, Thinkersbox will do an \"indepth test\" (about 60-75mins) for your kids.<br /><br />The teacher will go through this result of the \"Indepth test\" during the first day of his lesson.  All activities conducted here are based on the results.  E.g. my son is weak in \"Auditory Attention\" - they will have materials / activities to help him in this area (from a video they showed me).<br /><br />Hopefully, he will improve after the 10-months course.  <br />Will post here to update all again after few months down the road.</blockquote></blockquote><p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/802644</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/802644</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Leoleo18]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 23 Jul 2012 03:01:43 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Thinker Box - Discussion on Thu, 10 May 2012 16:23:58 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">Hi,<br /><br />Bringing my girl who is in P2 this year for the diagnostic assessment this Sat,<br />may I know wat’s the comment &amp; feedback &amp; how can the course help your child?<br />Please kindly pm me, thank you:)</p>
