Comparing Math Enrichment Programmes

[mdas]

Hi, I am new to this forum. My DD is appearing PSLE 2015. I am looking for Math enrichment center near CCK / Bt Batok / Bt Gombak area. Currently I am staying at Bt Gombak. It will be highly appreciated if anyone can recommend me any center.

After googling, I found few enrichment centers near to my place:

http://www.thelearninglab.com.sg/
http://pslemath.com.sg/
http://www.edufront.com/
http://www.mso.com.sg/

I plan to visit them soon. But any of your expert guide would be extremely valuable.

Thanks.

DS has been with Mindstretcher since P4. His Maths foundation is kind of above average hence so far has no issues following the school and tuition class since entering primary school.

However, during the preparation of CA1 (P5) from the school, I noticed he is not quite versed with the various problems sums. I asked if Mindstretcher has taught the class the same topic and he said they have.

That sets me thinking:
1) Is mindstretcher going too fast but not going deep into the topic which compromise understanding?
2) Is it DS who is not able to comprehend the topic at P5 and needs more time? Is that expected for P5 kids even at other tuition centre?
3) For parents with kids at mindstretcher in upper primary, can you share your experience if their group tuition and ways of teaching are good enough?

I am ready to pull him out for 1-1 tuition as I do not want to waste money and time at P5. I have had my horrible experience with DS1 and not keen to do it again :roll: .

Thanks in advance! And wishing all a healthy, Successful and Happy New Year! :rahrah:

Well, for primary tuition, just go to the nearest, cost-effective, and most important the one that you kid enjoy going , and then she will learn. :imcool:

Both also no need, bec both don't help in our MOE Maths syllabus

CMA only prepare children for mental sums.
But is our Moe Maths syllabus teaching only just mental sums, or much more beyond ?

MPM doesn't suit our Sg Maths Moe syllabus

Hi,

Anyone with kids who are attending SMS-TOP now ? We got the note for Jun module but I have not made up my mind.
Is it still useful if the kid is already quite good in math Olympiad? Or does it helps more on mainstream math ? Thanks for any advice !

* I tried asking his sch teachers but no info at all, plus sch did not promote SMS-TOP.

Perhaps you could refer to this website for a better gauge whether this enrichment will be beneficial for your child.
