Mind Champs
Went to their workshop upon invitation by Chloe , Interesting , viable option as a job.
they unleash the potential within the child , gives them confidence and provide them with multiple techniques to handle variety of problems. The high pay and the ability to change people's life makes this a good option.
they have stringent criteria to filter out the half hearted / unqualified trainers leaving only the best within the organisation.

my critique : memory work isn't the only requirement in our day and age , critical thinking , in depth analysis , ability to correlate , see hidden causes and having a holistic vision is pretty essential too.

This doesn't work for every1 , eg. if the problem lies in the external environment (jurong area bad air , noisy mornings). Nor can every1 afford this , (around 2k initial cost for various courses , around $20/hour for the courses ).

This is good for those whose problem lies in their memory as they managed to instill 10 kids with gosu memory within a short span of 1 hour+. No doubt , most subjects/things you do would require memory work.

About Yaohui
recieved a call from his mum saying his results dipped , sadded.
so drastic actions are taken to review his lesson plan and prioty goes to what his mum wants , to feed him with fish instead of teaching him how to fish (spoon feeding him). I told her the problem has got to do with his Maple playing and Tv watching.
I mean how can i teach him if his so weary when i come , hardly able to absorb any thing. but she told me that she can't take away his child hood pleasures of tv and pc.

farnee , i dun remember playing maple when i was pri 6. so what to do , if i dun follow her ways , she threaten to make that the last lesson. yea yea grades drop all blame me =O pregnant teacher who not make sure her subjects are properly covered when she's away on maternal leave doesn't play a role?

On ODEX , why people shun their fan sub ?
