Hi


Any comments on teacher Deen/Deem from Zoo/Bt Timah or on their 3yo enrichment curriculum there? Thanks

I decided to enrol my 2-yr-old boy in the thomson zoophonics on my colleague’s recommendation. but have to say i was disappointed. my boy attended lessons there for the last few months but we decided to pull him out coz’ we didn’t find the English teachers (the usual Eng teacher and her cover teacher who took the class in her absence) very good. they don’t seem to be passionate about what they do, nor are they really into kids.

i remember one lesson where the teacher was reading a story to the toddlers and she was using words that are not simple enough for their understanding. i just find them not engaging enough.

Dear parents,


May I know if you have any recommendations for any enrichment centers as recently I realised my ger had a sudden change of attitude towards attending the zoophonics school. Im so stressed out cos its not her usual self and I really wonder why…or what happen… she has never been like this and nvr cry her heart out when gg to school in fact she loves school initially but for the last wk plus today,out of a sudden she refused to go to the school and freaked out when she saw the school too! I really have no idea why…im at a total lost now…

Need some help and advises…

Perhaps you can have a talk with her teacher who might be aware of what’s bothering your child?

I had spoken to the teacher but they told me they dun know why either.. that leaves me puzzled.. :frustrated:

I tried every ways till now and she doesn't seems as interested and eager to go school.. when I ask her why she turn away from me too

I dunno what else can I do now... :sad:

Till now, my ger still resists gg to school.. when she saw the uniform she hides or she will push me away...


What can I do...

Hi All,


Just to provide some positive feedback about zoophonics thomson branch. My gal was with them since Oct 2012 as now I wanted her to progress into other program for reading so i send her for LCentral and LP for assessment.

Both center provided good feedback about her phonetic sound. I am glad that I have chosen the right program for her & appreciate her teacher effort.

Hi parents in Tampines,

My son attended zoo phonics tampines last year and sadly did not benefitted much from this programme. The teachers were friendly and approachable but my son is not learning much after 1 year.
I met a parent while waiting for public bus after my son’s enrichment class. Her child is 6 and she was reading a decent story book while waiting for bus too. Curious, I asked her where did she sent her child to. I met up with Teacher Karen, Tampines the next day. She’s a total package, committed, passionate and experienced. My child is reading well now, I am a happy parent.

If you’re looking for a Phonics Teacher in Tampines, please pm me.
My oldest child has benefited a lot from her and now I want to send my 2 nd child but she needs 2 more students to start a new class.
I hope to get my little one started by January 2015
