Hi Mummies and Daddies,
Would like to introduce to you about the STAR PHONICS programme and the STAR ADVANCED READING & COMPREHENSION programme.
Developed by a a team of educationists in Singapore and guided by ASST Prof Linda Gan, lecturer at the NIE in the division of specialised education, STAR PHONICS is a phonics based programme for beginning readers, especially for pre primary kids between the ages of 4-6, learning the pronounciation of letters and blending them to form words. STAR PHONICS has been offered in Singapore since 1998 and has been extremely well received by parents and educators, this programme is also introduced in several primary schools to help the weaker students who has problems in pronouncing and writing the letters and words.
As a licensed trainer to teach this programme, i would like to emphasis that children learn best through interactive activities and by engaging them in the area of speaking and reading. The STAR Phonics Programme is a 40 week programme, where in each lesson, children are exposed to four sections of learning, PHONICS time, STORY time, READING time and FUN time!
The STAR ADVANCED READING & COMPREHENSION programme is for the advanced learner between age 7 - 9 years old, whereby the focus is on improving the child's interest in reading books of different genre and building their vocabulary.
In Jan 2009 , the STAR PHONICS programme and the STAR ADVANCED READING & COMPREHENSION programme will be conducted also at Pearl Student Care Centre on weekends. On weekdays, the programmes are conducted at my place in punggol drive. If you would like to find out more, please feel free to drop me an email at
