Parent-Teacher Meeting

Today, we have the PTM for B3.  We met with the Chinese teacher first and he suggest that B3 should get a school teacher to coach him in his oral.  So, mummy jumps right to action and send messages to other mums.  One recommended an agency and we engage him right away.  His rate is $50 an hour minimum one and half hours each time i.e. $75 per session.  We have to pay the agency fee of $180.  It will cost us a pretty penny by the time the oral exams is due which is 4 months.  What to do with such competitive school system. 

His maths teacher is happy with his performance and is willing to write a testimonial for his application to NUS High if B3 is interested.  But B3 is more interested in the School of Science and Technology which has 3D printers as part of the curriculum.  His English teacher says he is diligent and articulate in class and command of English is good as he can understand the lesson well.  He is active in class participation.  So he is in good stead.
