Our children have been learning in Mind Stretcher Bishan for years. In the past, things seem ok.

Share my sad story. Recently, we find that in our boys file folders, many of the work sheets serial numbers are not connected, eg. after comprehension 1, comes comprehension 6. Comprehension 2,3,4,5 are missing. Such cases occur in many contents include, composition, synthesis & transforation, grammar, vocabulary,etc. Totally more than 10 worksheets not found.

After checking with other children/parents, and the mind stretcher bishan branch having investigated other boys file folders, and a meeting with teacher and center, all the parties found the fact that some of these(from week 2 to week 20+) were with teacher for months, never been returned to students after done, thus, never been explained. Some of the missing ones, had never been given to students to do. The teacher is said to have been teaching in MS for 3 years is currently taking many classes there.

The fact was astonishing. Our children spent time in MS class but didn't receive quality teaching for half a year. And the result is their SA1 English results downgraded from English former A* to band 2. If we had not checked the files and discover this problem by chance, we would never know it, then this circumstance will continue and the teacher may remain to be regarded as good, qualified, responsible. We take it as a serious problem and requested extra lesson to make up for the content not covered immediately without causing negative effects to any latter lessons; and replace the teacher. We also advised MS to inform all the parents of the class, most of whom are still not aware.

They are saying that the teacher is good and responsible, having been there for years. But as an experienced teacher he should have known before he did that what he did is not allowed. How could we trust him? They are saying that such cases never happened before. Once is enough. The time we wasted can never come back. And as nobody has checked before, there are no evidence to say such cases had happened or not. You won't discover the fact unless you check it even though the fact is always there. Is it a small possibility matter or a common one? Are there any worksheets missing from your child's Mind Stretcher file folders? Please check it to ensure that you get the equivalent valuable lessons to the money you paid and the time you spent.

The case has been reported to MS vice president but till now no satisfactory reply has been received. One investigation after another. Anyone could give any advice? What will you do if you were one of the parents? Very frustrating and :mad:
