[quote=\"HoSayLiao\"]Hi, i am a private maths tutor. After seeing some of the more difficult questions, I think we can give up on drawing models liao. Next year onwards, i will be teaching my P6 students algebra and for good measure, trigonometry (Python's theorem and toa cah soh).
That is the way to go!!!
Hi Liao,
Would you like to translate for those, who don't speak Chinese Mandarin or any Dialect of Chinese! \"Toa cah soh\" - :roll:?
Thanks in advance!
Mandy
TOA CAH SOH is Singapore students' (and teachers') interpretation of trigonometry ratios;
TOA - Tangent is Opposite/Adjacent sides
CAH - Cosine is Adjacent/Hypothenuse sides
SOH - Sine is Opposite/Hypothenuse sides
TOA CAH SOH is invented by Singapore but never officially appear in any textbook or guides of reputable standard. Because it smacks of \"hokkien\" dialect connotations.
In the past, my maths teacher said \"On Her Majesty Service\" - OHMS => Opposite/Hypothenuse Means Sine!
More classy, (but she didn't teach Tangent and Cosine! :p)[/quote]
Thanks James Ang,
It's good to know this, cos I will be my daughter's tutor in Secondary School as well. But we are not Chinese, that's why may be \"TOA CAH SOH\" will not work like a good association for her. Any way I am \"kiasu\" for everything, which related to Maths!
Great weekend!
Regards!

Hi Mandy
Thank you for the info. We will perhaps visit the music school during the school holiday break.
Is your child having violin lessons with one of the teachers here in this school ?
Thank you.
Have a great weekend.
Dear Claire,
My gal is not musical inclined. But I have friend, whose child has been having violin lessons with one of the teachers in Musical Art Studio since 2003. That's why I know, that this school has two violin teachers. Both of them are very good, high educated. They hold Master Degree in violin from famous Music Conservatories in Europe. They have a great experience in teaching children-one of them more than 15 years teaching experience /7 years here in Singapore/. And the same time teachers from that school perform frequently in different concerts here in Singapore. You may want to go through this link:

And one more:

One more benefit: The fees are lower in rate comparing with those in Mandeville Music. Even at Mandeville you pay monthly fee, but you receive three lessons, 1:1 basis, instead of four, cos one of the lessons in the month is not perform 1:1 basis as they called those lessons \"assembly\" lessons. So students are required to gather to make an ensemble, every time conducted from different teacher. This is not too bad if the students are on the same level. But usually they are not, so it's a bit pointless.
At Musical Art Studio students are exposed to the Chamber music as well, preparing the Annual Concert of the school. But the participation in this Concert is not compulsory/as students have different aims/ and rehearsals for the Annual Concert are free of charge.
BTW, how old is your child?
All the best !(:

Hi
I am looking around for a violin teacher for my child. She has been learning the violin and is now doing Grade 4 pieces.
Does anyone of you have children with Mandeville Music ? I would like to hear your experience(your child's experince) with this school. As I do not know any of the teachers there, I hope to have someone who can recommand a good teacher if your child is currently with one there.
Thank you in anticipation for your advice & sharing.

Hope this will help!
