Has anyone attended Adam Koo’s courses for P1 to P6?


Are there any difference in the academic progress of ur kids, after the course or during the course? Any feedbacks will be appreciated. Thanks

Yes, it is very important. Because my Dear Dad had stroke and severe Brain damage. He also had facial paralysis occasionally. He was in ICU for 4 days and expired. A death blow for us.


First PREVENTION from stroke very very important.

1. Check Blood Pressure and TREAT it. Untreated High Blood Pressure(BP) will shoot up suddenly when we get angry or excited, and takes a toll of our Dear ones lives causing severe brain damage.

2. Severe headaches have to be checked and treated.

3. Please for heaven's sake, if u feel something sad blocking ur chest, at least share with ur friends or close relatives and take it out, otherwise it may lead to High BP. Share ur issues with whom u feel v close.

4. Periodically visit Doctor. Change ur dosage according to the BP. Pain in hand or shoulders may be also be a symptom for on coming stroke.

My friend's brother 32 years old, was complaning high BP, pain in arms and shoulders. His symptoms were not taken seriously. And after a week he just collapsed with massive stroke, heart attack.

Take care of our Dear ones lives.

Love u all!

Tamarind,


Kudos! to ur view! Yes sending kids to help them learn to "get along" with all which ensures future success!

My son is also in the same situation. He knows all the answers atleast the most and he is bored. He says the answer but does’nt want to write long long sentences. He can write neatly but feels bored. He is mildly hyperactive. Anyways I am doing my best on the behavioural theraphy.

But when it comes to friends he loves them he socialises. He has no attitude problem. He loves all one and the same. He supports and shares all with his friends.

But a bit out of self-control when he is excited. For example when one of his friend is naughty he tends to follow it or add to it.

His teacher spoke to my DH so long and said that my DS is her best partner. He does so much help for her and everyone. And that only when he is excited he tends to be naughty. He said he has come a long positive way when compared to what he was. (THAT is what they learn in school). And we as parents teach them how to have self control, respect, love, compassion and that sharing is fun, learning together is fun to bring harmony to teacher and school, irrespective of the race and culture. I always tell him if friends do good follow them, if they do bad don’t follow them. And that is called as self-control. Diversity in Adversity.

It is quiet challenging to bring up kids nowadays. They are intelligent. And They need to learn social skills to be more successful in life. For which we as parents first have to be role models. Children follow parents or photocopy parents becoz that is easy. So it is good that we set as examples. Becoz they tend to imitate us. Dont teach them too much. Becoz ultimately they dont have anything to learn. Leave interesting things which we think that they can pick up from teacher to kids. Otherwise we may in long run spoon feed them and they make not be able to analyse themselves and make their own decisions.

Nowadays I have learnt the word "MODESTY" is the best policy. Don’t always do everything. They also have to learn certain (non-risky) things by themselves. Just support them in the process of thinking and learning, and foster independent learning skills.

Don’t always resist negativity. What we resist will persist. Let them do certain non-risky negative things that does’nt harm others. Like my son will rocket fly in his scooter and fall down and get hurt, and come to me crying. Then after he falls down, I give a lecture (!) to him. Trying to get the point, when ur speed is modest, ur scooter is in ur control. When ur speed is too high the scooter is in speeds control. Which one do u want? U want to control ur scooter rite? Then better from next time be in modest speed.

But at the end of the day my throat is burnt , but worth doing that. I realize after his teacher gave positive comments on him. All the pains in my throat have gone.

Be patient with kids. They don’t do it wantedly. They do not know how to react and act to situations. It is us as parents to guide them at every stage of life.

I have been doing research on hyperactivity and nutrition. And really nutrition does wonders to intelligent and hyperactive kids, and for all kids. And behavioral therapy is very important to all the kids. We used to say a proverb "if we cant bend in 5, then we cant bend in 50".

So, it is good to instill values in kids before 5 years, the borderline. Becoz if they learn it before 5 years old, kids think that is the NORM and they just do it. After that we can, but it takes more pain and strain too much, and kids keep on asking questions, we got to justify why we are asking them to act so, which is pain in the neck.

But trying to be a role model by doing the right thing for kids to follow, we also change ourselves and become more mature adults.

Take care. All the Best.

Dear All,


Hmmm GREAT Recipes! Already u seem to be experts and have tried out! Thank you so much! Life is interesting get involved (in Pizza Making! )

Did u watch U tube for Pizza making interesting. Thanks for the advice to save on the lesson and try myself. Why not I try. I dont have the bread maker, But I have the higher end Microwave. Does it usually come with breadmaker. I never tried or checked on my microwave!

Thanks for all the suggestions!

GREAT to Kiasuparents FORUM!

Original Title: Any Pizza Making Class to Join?


Can anyone help me to list any class where they teach to make Pizza in Tampines Area or anyother area nearby. My DS loves Pizza, if I can make I can hide all goodies inside and give him to eat, otherwise he does'nt want to eat fruits

His birthday is in Dec, I want to make my own Pizza with fruits added for him and save my money also.

Thank you very much!

I have seen Kumon workbooks not sure if it is the same. But u can attend their observation sessions where u can sit in. And kids given test to determine which level they belong to and they can enter that level directly instead of starting from Level 7A to travel up based on individual kids skills.

Glad we r in the same stage of Kumon! My son also talks a looot and active! :lol:


Initially he also took 40 min in fact 3 hrs also sometimes. What I felt for my son is - discipline motivation and time consciousness have to be encouraged. It is very diff but worth it. My son never ever stops talking. I loss my temper but still after Kumon I HAVE LEARNT to be patient to make things work with my son. He is also repeating the Level 2A (maths) second time since we had to break for 8 months. And then he had to take up test and go down from 2A to 4A and now he is back to level 2A. But now I feel he is more clear and mature.

Motivate, motivate, patience. It is a challenge! Reward them, appreciate them, all modestly.

My DS is taking 2A test today since he has completed 2A worksheets :roll: ! Expecting whatever to happen !

I say, 'finish worksheet in 6 min mummy feel proud (this is for me), and daddy feel happy(for daddy), and i will tell ur Kumon friend that u have achieved, will buy u the food u like to eat, u can go to higher level, finish the entire kumon faster, and then all is done! U will score well in primary. U will feel proud and ur future will be bright, what ever, to make them really understand it is for their good, and make them happy, and make them understand. Everything moderately without stressing them. Give all the trust warmth and love they need. They will soon realise. My son will still grumble sometimes when his mood is not good. But is ok, we got to be patient. They will do it.

All the Best
