I get to know this name recently recommended by one of my friends, whose kid is attending Chinese there. <br /><br /><br />I am looking at katong branch as I am staying nearby. Thinking about either Chinese or Maths subjects. <br /><br />Have you experienced that center before? Or in other branch? I am willing to share any information provided. Thanks.</p>

They should really make you feel more welcoming then pushing you 'away'? When I first discussed with the 'principal', he seems very approachable and even suggested that we try out the chinese then abacus (another interest area for us) since that (abacus) may bored the kids out....<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/49583</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/49583</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[adafew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2009 14:58:32 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Mind Research Consultant (MRC) - Discussion on Tue, 11 Aug 2009 14:53:14 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><b>yeomaylin:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black">Hi Adafew,<br /><br /><br />Tks 4 d feedback.

I did not visit the classroom and teacher, my DH did. His first comment after sending my boy is ‘I don’t think he’s going to enjoy’…I asked him why and he said the teacher dont seems ‘interesting’…men you know…<br /><br />What surprise him is when he pickup my DS1 and he actually said he enjoyed the class and wanted to return again! I asked my DS1 what he likes. He cant seems to be able to describe well but mentioned they learned many words on vegetables. They also did some art and craft (did a flag).<br /><br />I was tempted to sign…but I actually enrolled him for Tian Hsia’s trial at Simei Eastpoint Mall as well. So thought will decide on either center after that trial. <br /><br />End result, we finally decided to enrol him to Tian Hsia due to following consideration<br /><br />1) environment seems better<br />2) center only focus on mandarin teaching<br />3) Good mix in area of learning (word recognition, hanyu pinyin, composition, comprehension etc)<br />4) allows makeup lesson<br /><br />Frankly, I am still thinking if I should sign him for this MRC still (just dont want to give him too much stress)</p>
