who don't you come down personally to both RCs where enopi and MPM operating. Make appointment with the instructors if there is a sincerity in enrolling. Compare the materials or check their websites for personal info first.

This year PSLE mathematics.

Some mothers wrote-in to the Straits Times forum, complaining that the questions were never see before, never do before, never teach before. Start to blame MOE for setting this type of questions.

In the first place, these mothers are nurturing their children in a rote memorising, drilling, assessment books type of education. Definitely, those 20% questions on concepts, logic and analytical thinking skiils, the children can't do.

MOE done a good job in setting such questions. This is a real challenging problems sums in a competitive country like Singapore. When 6 millions population flooded in this country, don't wish our children to be drown with the foreign talents.

MPM or E-nopi? You have to see their materials and judge yourself. For myself, I don't invest on calculator and drilling skills. Because those can be found in assessment books. Money and time already spent, invest on long-term programme, added skills and not according to school syllabus type.
