Shichida>> i placed my elder boy when he was nearing 2yrs old. The course is originated from Japan n distributed n owned by a local elder chinese lady. Before enrolling yopur child, parents have to attend a seminar talk. The lesson is once a week, cant recall how long the session is... basically the traniner is there to deliver the method, 1 parent has to sit in n spare at least half hour a day to reinterate what is taugh in the lesson, the materials has to be purchased at own cost (pretty expensive) ive the materials still n im using it on my 2nd son, bb naven is using the flash card n memeory cards too. The lesson consistute of foreign languang singing esp Japanese, flash cards, linking memory, monterssori method but more towards tawaniese material, jigsaw, telepathy, hand co-ordination art & craft etc...
conclusion>> parents must reinforce at home if not no pt placing your child there
chiltern house/julia gabrial>> my son attended chiltern house during weekdays in Turf city, languang base school, speech & drama method, english teacher its either ang moh or indian, chinese from mainland
Conclusion>> towards languang academic base
Mindchamp>> philospohy method, need coaching n guidance from parents too, before enrolling parents have to attend a orientation too.
conclusion>> too 'chiam' for my P1 boy, more for upper level student with good english vacab power. Then they will be able to comprehen the weekly activities required. Not academic kinda of 'think out of the box' n motivation course. I dun even understand the activities which is required from my boy most of the times
