X-Factor Quotient - Discussion

[hopeful mum]

hi,


Sorry... was busy with the kids.... their activities really drain me dry. :roll:

Usaik : they started off my their math program. As for the science, I understand that a male teacher is incharge. You may want to check on their website at http://www.xfq.com.sg. As for math, they have teachers for different levels. They also have teachers who specialised in the GEP curriculum. It is best that you call the centre to check on the vacancy as well as the timing.


Laurenwkids : for my case, since my daughter is still with the same teacher, I can't say for sure both centres teach the same way. I personally feel that the curriculum for both centres are pitched higher than the curriculum in school. So the factor that decides will be the teachers.

I strongly recommend that you call the centre to find out more.

This centre gives me an impression that their focus seems to be on Math rather than Science. Any parents with kids enroll their child in their Science programmes? Any views?

[hopeful mum]

I think every enrichment centre here has its strong hold. As they grow, they hope to provide a one stop service to parents. At the end of the day, we, as parents, will have to decide what is good for our kids.

I heard from my friend the Science teacher was from smart lab. I wanted to register my son for science but my only concern is he is the only science teacher in the school.

Yes heard he is from Science Lab. Guess since they have just started Science classes, they need time to build up their intake first, before adding on more teaching staff. My query is more whether he is a good teacher and the materials (notes & worksheets) are good. Anyone has any feedback? Thanks.

According to my friend his son followed the teacher Daniel from smart lab as he enjoys the class very much. Lots of hands on practises and experiments. The children able to grasp the concept well and always looking forward to attend the class.

Time flies..... with all the hectic schedule of my kids, be it school work or CCA, really drain me dry.... :P. Thus explains my inactive status in the forum. Previously, I was sharing that I might be enrolling my younger child on the pre-P1 and I must give credit to the teacher. He has built a strong foundation on the concept and is able to tackle most word problems at his level with ease. I'm glad to give him the head start and stimulated his interest in math. He is more keen now try those challenging questions. Kudo to his teacher.....

Hi ssyy, some of their teachers were ex-TLL and others were formal school teachers from a prestigious school nearby. X-factor is conducting IP classes for secondary. You may want to check as I know they have classes for different schools so as to follow closely to their school curriculum. Give them a call at 62505877 to check it out.

Cheers!
