Is Mrs Lee only focusing on PSLE? Does she coach other levels?
She does upper primary math only.
Is Mrs Lee only focusing on PSLE? Does she coach other levels?
Have to add my 2 cents worth here bubbling with excitment over the prelim results my son brought home.
Mrs Lee is teaching my P6 son this year.
She’s very motivating and encouraging. But she tolerates no nonsense. Child has been scolded when he doesn’t work hard.
These are his grades (which are a testimony to Mrs Lee’s amazing ability to bring out the best in the kid!): CA1 43. SA1 62. SA2 69. Prelim 84!
My son’s more confident now, and we are all hoping/praying that PSLE will be even better.
Although she’s very busy, she’s really dedicated and I’ve never had any difficulties getting in touch with her.
Thanks for all the welcome messages… Have already participated in some of the threads. This is a great forum to engage other parents…
A very late reply (I just joined this forum), but hope it would be useful for future prospective students…
My younger DS is in Holy Grace. Started in Nursury this year. It’s a great school and we have no complaints. There hasn’t been any changes in teachers for the whole year. The teachers are caring (esp since DS had hard time adapting to school and was crying a lot for the first month!!).
We speak English at home, so we are not worried about English allegedly being compromised. At school, he learns phonics, and he has picked up reading as well. In that sense, I don’t think English is in fact compromised. I recall hearing a talk to parents telling us that they are modifying their curriculum, and putting more emphasis on English…
As for mandarin, he started off not knowing a single word. He now knows some, which is wonderful. He is also not adverse to the chinese language/culture.
Holy Grace has good enrichment programmes - Act 3, Music, gym, computer are offered albeit as ‘extras’. They also are implementing new programmes, including trips to china for some K2 students. They say this arises from the ministry’s new initiatives for pre-school education.
My experience with Holy Grace is to be contrasted with elder DS who went to different church based school. That school was good too (great teachers!), but the chinese standards were very low. Even with Tien Hsia and home tuition in K2, he still had problems being ready for Primary 1 chinese. For that reason, we enrolled DS 2 in Holy Grace. On a different note, after enrolling in Holy Grace, I noticed further that they have more field trips for the kids, compared with DS 1’s kindy, which is a plus for Holy Grace.
My son goes to Induk at Mountbatten. He likes it there. The teachers are attentive and the premises are new.
Hi everyone. Am new here. Hope to learn from all the parents' here *waves*
