    • RE: Anderson Primary

      totoro:
      Does anyone in APS attends Pro-teach student care at amk ave4? How's the Teachers and food there?

      Like all other Pro-teach centres, this student care is popular.
      Food wise is regular meals for lunch and tit-bits during tea break. You can see children smiling and feel safe putting them there.
      Teachers are very kind & strict, some are there for many years. Students will finish most of the hw & Pro-teach materials as well as tingxie/ spelling. It's all about rushing tight timeline.

      Due to the big class size:
      - Classrooms are fully packed with tables and chairs. Kids sitting middle/end side will have very hard time to come out just for toilet relief or even bring schoolbags out. It's not safe for children when it come to fire emergency despite the centre is the bomb shelter site.

      - When student asks questions, either teachers are rushing to finish the Pro-teach materials or attending other matters. From what I see mostly are unanswered, similarly like schooldays. Teachers cannot cope with so many children. They do not have the time to sit down, explain conceptual reasons. Please don't expect the teachers to have high morale.

      If any child is unable to do, simply copy & submit. Teachers will not test them whether they know this or not. Their mindset is just to make sure children do write down on the Pro-teach materials (except for 1 teacher who is delicate). Once time's up these worksheets will return back to parents.

      - Do bear in mind, teachers will not take initiative to inform you about your child performance as this is simply a student care centre, not tuition centre. What you pay is what you get.

      - Toilets are very stinky, the same area for bathing where the hot water storage always not doing well.

      - For CCA student, just pay $2+ to schoolbus driver & tell him pro teach amk, he'll drop the child at the bus stop right in front of centre.

      Typical student care centre business. It's all about marketing skills.
      Important note: If you are heavily relying teachers on quality teaching, not that I know of.
      Depends on what you need.

    • RE: Good Secondary Schools (North)

      From what I know, YTSS via DSA sports is highly taxing.

      Some of them that don’t do well academically will need to go NA.
      Not sure about those non DSA sports students.

    • RE: Transferring Secondary School at Sec 2

      12photos - no harm giving it a try however don’t put the expectation high. RGS will look at your overall performance (academic & non-academic) for the least since Sec 1. You may like to discuss with your family of widening school choices. Regardless of the result bucking up on studies is the only choice for yourself to the gateway.


      Hope this helps.
