Hi 24hrmum,
Does this centre do science experiments or just theory? How big is the class size? Is their maths really this good? My ds did not do well in this current SA2's maths.

2centsworthy,38pllus or any parents with children in Perceptum


I would appreciate more feedback about classes at BTSC, specificially the SCIENCE programmes.
- Why do you think Perceptum lessons made a difference ?
- Do they do experiments during the lessons ? Or discussions ? Or Worksheets ?
- The 3 lead teachers will conduct the lessons or are there other part-time/full-time tutors ? So far, do you experience any teacher turnover ?

Thanks very much.

add 1 more question:-
- Are they patient with hyper children?

I think it really depends on the child too. My ds1 was doing science & math, both under Mrs Sim. He got A* for both for PSLE.


My p5 boy, started this year with mrs sim for science. From 71 in science last year p4 to just barely pass this year. *sigh*.

Phankao, thanks for sharing.
For such a case, did the center or Mrs Sim feedback what went wrong and what else could be done ? So you going to pull your boy out ? but PSLE next year right ?

Actually Mrs Sim didn't even reply me after asking me to scan and email the exam paper over. *fume*. Even after I said I was extremely worried.

*sigh*. But I don't know where else to send him. He has been *sacked* by several tutors already.

wah, like that ?! 2011 PSLE and their own student !
I would expect they should give some help/advice to you so that you and child can maximise this Nov/Dec to do everything you can.

I understand their class fees is not cheap ?
Given their high profile, I expected more regular feedback and help even with the weaker students. Is that the case ? Or they are too fully stretched ?

its $45 per lesson (2hr) for p3 . not sure for p5 or p6
