      Hi ,

      as in your child trialed the creative writing for both Agrader and TAS? Or is the overall english program?

      im planning to trial on both as well. Agrader is much more convenient and pocket friendly for us. my child is p3 and currently in TWC, but after 3 classes i feel that the teachers are providing the answers and not really teaching them the technique.

      Hi parents, would like to check if there is any Tuition Centre recommendation for Paper 2 English for P5?

      Also to share our experience.

      Had been with Jan & Elly since K1 to P4 - didnt see any improvement in English and hence stop.
      Then switch to AGrade Creative writing early this year but my kid didnt have any P1 test so far, so I cant judge if its good.

      Had recently trial TAS but my son feedback AGrade was better.

      Now looking at Write Connection and Little but mighty.

      Appreciate if any daddy mummy give their insight. Thanks.

        Hi! Can check out myfirstskool. Good reputation. Curriculum not only covers exam but advanced topics too!
        Agree! MFS such a good preschool lah. Their approach goes beyond traditional education – they foster a love for learning. My child eagerly embraces each day at My First Skool, and the progress in their developmental milestones is truly remarkable. :rahrah:

            Just my 2c...
            - Find what is the best value for money for you and your child. Most importantly is to have our children enjoy their learning in the process and gain insights into their own learning styles.
            - Make good use of the trials to see if your child has some chemistry with the teacher. The teacher-student relationship makes a BIG difference over time.
            - Check in with the teacher if you feel that your child can gain more from a lesson. Languages take time to pick up too, so don't be too quick to pull your child out of a programme just because there aren't \"results\".
            - If you're planning to go TAS, I recommend the creative writing programme if you want to drill writing weekly or already have a separate tuition covering paper 2. If not the overall english programme covers everything.

            Atb in your search!

                        Hello everyone,


                        I’ve recently enrolled my son in Primary 1 English enrichment classes at TLL, and I’m also exploring other options by taking trial classes at W@W, LCentral, British Council, and Julia Gabriel.
                        As I compare fees, I notice that TLL is more expensive than the other centers. I’m curious to understand the justification for the higher cost.

                        To give some background, my son has been attending math and Chinese enrichment classes, and despite we being a non-Chinese family, he has been doing exceptionally well in Chinese and in Maths he is a few classes ahead. We want to replicate this success in English.

                        My goals for his English enrichment are:

                        1) To become highly proficient in English, recognizing its importance as a business communication language.
                        2) To excel in academics according to the Singapore curriculum.

                        I believe, for language we always need to start early. I cannot guide him consistently myself because of time constraint.

                        If TLL provides exceptional value and superior quality compared to other centers, I’m ok.
                        English is so important that I am ok to invest a second enrichment for writing, speech & drama etc. But it needs to add value.

                        I’d appreciate insights from experienced parents or educators to help me make an informed decision. Thank you!
