RE: Just Education - Discussion
from prior experience, i always have the impression that if you run a tuition centre, you should be able to use primp and proper english. to my horror, i happen to overhear on the managers speak. o my, the queen of england would flip. the teochew accent is so thick and this is a middle aged chap. looking at the top people who speaks like a teochew ah pek with the teochew tune, what do you expect of the teachers there. basically, they employ people, dont know if they are teachers or not, and its a class basis. if i am not mistaken, 20 in class. just dish out worksheets, go through them. nothing fantastic. my neighbours kids go the one at gombak. minimal improvement. i would prefer to go further, hey , there is a stalford learning centre, heard it’s quite good responsible. if you get into the classes of some of the older teachers there, your kids will benefit. i am not sure about some of the kiddy looking boys who claimed they are teachers. and i also had the pleasure of speaking to the ceo ms teo, she is informative and quite a good speaker. chew on it.
