Hi,


After 2 years with BC, we decided not to let our P2 and P3 continue next year. I feel that yes, they enjoy their lessons but it’s probably not academic enough or syllabus focus to enable them to perform at school exams.

I think 2 years is enough to determine the results.

I am now looking for another english program. I think something more academic that enables them more practise would be what we need.

I am looking at Tony buzan (as it’s near our place) and Lcentral. Tony Buzan is using current/ ex-school teachers. While Lcentral is using native speakers. Was wondering which would be better. I intend to let them try out for a term in term 4. I am not very keen on trial class as I feel that it’s not easy to determine effectiveness through a class.

Any other recommendations (prefer east or north east centres).

I am not too sure about Tony Buzan. I think i was only interested in their mind mapping skills. I happened to pass by Learning Lab and registered our interests. Not sure if timing, etc.. will fit since kids probably has to undergo assessment and they said they require 2 weeks processing??? Anyway, if it doesn't happen, I will most likely go for LCentral.


Someone we know put his son in LCentral. He switched from BC as well. It's been 2 years and he is still in LCentral and doing PSLE this year. Heard that it's not bad. Some pros I see are :
* Smaller class size (not more than 9)
* Native speaker
* Teacher marks their work and heard they do have some homework/ spelling. Sounds alot more academic
* Materials looks good

Only thing is that I am not hearing much review except from this person I know.

like to know more on LCentral (Jurong East), Sucess 1 or 2.
Does anyone has something to share? They price is much higher then Just (JE branch too).
thks.
