Comparing Science Enrichment Programs

My kid is there, recently just joined..have been there for about 2 months. I really like their worksheets and teaching methods. They are much clearer than the previous centre I was at and the way the the teacher teaches helps my kid to really grasp the concept. I can't give the teacher's name though as I heard from a friend whose kid is in the same class that the class is full and she is not taking any more classes and she also does not want her name to 'spread' as she might want to slow down and take fewer classes next year. But I believe the other teachers should be good as well.24hr-mum:
any gd sci tuition centre or teacher to recommend?
Heard that Mastery Learning Centre (Bishan & Balmoral Plaza) is good at preparing students for exams/PSLE (especially in Science). Any parents whose kids are/were in Mastery Science? Appreciate your feedback and comments... -

Hi Laurenwkids.. Glad to hear that, as my DS2's school is very near to Mastery Bishan..Hi firefly38,
My kid is at the bishan branch.
DS2 (P4) got back his SA1 Science results yesterday.. He got 56/60 for Section A (MCQ), but only 28/40 for Section B (Open-Ended).. I have decided to sign up Science tuition for DS2 to improve on his skills on answering open-ended questions.. Your post came in timely.. Thanks, once again!

I intend to enrol my boy for their solar science class. -
Glad I could help in anyway, yes my kid struggled in section B too, this time SA1 i saw a slight improvement, I am not expecting miracles within such a short time but the fact that she is much clearer on her concepts in 2 months give me some ‘an xin’ feeling.
Where is your child at for Math? I am looking for good math centre…my kids did not do too well, they have been with a pte tutor for a while. -
Pse advise how to improve and score in science paper booklet B - Process Skill? My girl just managed to pass it. Quite worried as PSLE is getting closer.

Using the right key words in the correct way -
try compare the child’s answer with the model answer. the ans must be precise and direct and usg sci keywords, not like a layman.

My DS also did not do well in the recent SA1 Math exam (P4) :gloomy: .. He scored only 7/20 in Section C (1 qn correct-4m, 2 qns wrong-0m, 1 qn-1m, 1qn-2m)
!!! I asked DS why couldn't he solve most of the problem sums, DS said the teacher did not teach them how to do so! Then I asked why his classmates could solve most of the problem sums, DS said they learned the methods from their tutors! :shock:
I have been holding back my decision to sign up tuition classes for my DS2, coz I did not need to do so for my DS1 (who is in Sec-1 this year), so I thot I could do the same or DS2, but guess I have been wrong all this while :slapshead: ! Actually, I am also trying to source for a good Math tutor for DS2.. I am contemplating OnSponge Math, Perceptum Math or Concept Math. Do you have any centres in mind, and wish to share your experiences here? :idea:
