I like MPM and think they have one of the better materials which are colourful and intriguing for the young. But that said, i think alot also depends on the centre/ teachers that teach the child. I have heard the teacher screaming at the child " Quickkkkk, why you sooo slow" in her broken Singlish and i was taken aback but DD said she was never recipient of that sort of treatment though it frightened her at first. To cut the story short, there’s no doubt that the materials are fantastic but i do think that the owner of the centre have to make abit of effort to create a more condusive environment and also having more professional teachers to teach the kids. Afterall, the fees aint exactly cheap (SGD 440/term)

Hi all


I would like to get some advise how different is MPM versus Kumon. My girl is currently in Kumon and now she is in K1. She has been a consistent performer and is now doing subtraction. Recently, her K1 day school start introducing problem solving questions and she find them tough, she also started to feel stress over her maths homework and start to cry when she cant do them saying it is very diffcult and I am not sure if it is because of that which make her resistance in doing her Math homework including Kumon claiming its hard and lost interest.

I am getting really worried if she is under stress as she can cope with the the school syllabus and if Kumon doesnt cater to the ‘problem-solving’ skills she needs in school. I read in this forum there is MPM, so would like to find out more while I continue to monitor DD’s progress and talk to her teachers.

Would appreciate any advise. Thanks !

MPM fees $440 /per term (12 weeks) or some RC/CC centre will charge $155/pm. It is still cheap compare to some Chinese tuition centres which is only 10 weeks. Some science enrichment even $680 for 10 weeks. English enrichment even $750 for 10 weeks. Piano class $265 for 4 lesson only 1 hr lesson.


Conclusion MPM fee is still reasonable. Opt for monthly fee lor. The centre should have 2 options to choose.

There is a mpm maths outlet near my place, block 510 Bedok North St 3. They say they are the franchise of mpm math. Anyone had any idea ? Just want to check before I enrolled my girl. The fees is $440 for 12 sessions. But have to pay $50 for assessesment ( include bag and stationery). Isn’t assessment free if we decide to enrolled? Plus $50 deposit( refundable) . Anybody can help clarify? Thanks

Hi there


I just enrolled my girl in MPM. I noticed that they have a few different trainers. May I ask how to out if the trainers are certified? I want to make sure they are not just any part timers trying to fill in when the actual trainers are not available. Any adv is much appreciated. Thank you.

was this question answered? I'm also very curious to know. The trainers look as if they came over from work, hence i'm worried if they are really certified. the fees arent exactly cheap, hence if they did not use qualified trainers, :faint:
