I dislike Mathhub coz they publish your kids name and result on their web, even if you quit or did not attend the specific training module such as NMOZ during holiday. If the kids score top/distinction, it may means they just being trainned and by MathHub, else if the result is so so, it is not so nice also...

I pull my kid out due for this reason and join training centre who does not publish students result on the web.

Not only Mathhub do that, other ctr doing the same thing, like Mind stretcher. So long the kids,are in their ctr before.

yes, i agree!
Most of the airlines including SQ cost abt $8k+ for my family of 4.. except for EVA, it's only $6k+.. my collegue flew on EVA last Dec to West Coast, she said it was good!

Ya... paid around $6k+ for 4 pax (inc taxes and surcharges) and with the US$ down, it was a good time to go. As your dd2 is below 12, she'll pay child's fare too, so can save some more

Just booked my tkt to usa with Thai Air, 2A2C below 12 total cost less than 6K.

Anymore has good car rental company to share in usa:please:

Hi jlimk,


Each lesson is 2 hours long. Every 10 lessons/term is 388. During Jun/Dec holidays, parents who wish for their kids to continue will pay a prorated fee.

What is their 1 term like (from when to when)? Is it similar to the school academic calendar of 10 week/term?

their term is same as school academic calendar.

hquek:

Depends on the circumstance. if teacher feels there is something wrong with DS, she will waylay me as I leave the centre.


Otherwise if I want to check with her, I will wait for class to be over and take my turn; or I'll try to go extra early so I can talk to her before it starts (DS's class being the first for the day).

so there is no right way. I'm sufficiently comfy knowing that teacher will take initiative to keep me informed if something not quite right.

Hi hquek, may i know your kid is in which level and which ctr?

Seriously, after tuitioning at LP, in 9 months my Math improved a good 27 marks in total.


I got 61, yet they accepted me. Perhaps ur child didn’t want one more tuition and purposely failed the pre-entry test?[/quote]

May i know how much did you pay for the 2nd test?

You are lucky! My girl scored 84 in her SA2, LP still reject her… so if they take her, she could be an A* student. Too bad, LP had rejected her application.
