Which berries' center has better teachers? tampines central/ tampines mart / Kembangan?

I am not sure about Tampines Central as its FULL house for weekend class.
Mine is at Tampines Mart currently....as my son is super short attentive span person...He was asked to sit right in front of the teacher which he didnt like. I think the teachers are quite good....

Hi fellow parents,


I would like to seek some advise.

My soon-to-be 3yr old son doesn’t seem to have an interest in learning chinese. We speak mainly english back home with only his grandma speaking chinese.

Open to sending him for tuition as i understand its best for a child to pick up a language before the age of 6.

Understand that Berries World is a leader in this market, I like to know a few things:
1. what are the chances of getting in? As they are in demand, I heard their classes are always full.
2. What is so special about them? I heard kids pick up chinese fast at their schools
3. What are the rates like?
4. How do they teach chinese
5. What’s their home base learning like?

Thanks in advance
Natasha

Hi all, I’ve just booked a trial for my girl to attend Berries at Woodlands branch. Any reviews on this branch? Any recommended teachers? My girl will be attending N2 class. Feedback greatly appreciated!

Just checking- if a child shows some signs of separation anxiety, will the teachers allow the parent to sit in for awhile until the child settles in? My girl is quite slow to warm up in an unfamiliar environment but after awhile, she’s ok to be there on her own. Do the teachers allow this (parent accompanying child for awhile) to happen?

I'm not sure about other centres, but the one at Mountbatten CC did allow parents to sit in for children who have separation anxiety.
