Tears At Abacus Class
Thursday, May 07, 2009
I sent Ting Ting on an Abacus class hoping that it would help her to stretch her flexibility in Maths a little better, count a little faster.
Just last night, when I go and pick her up, her eyes were swollen. I was shocked. It's because she got the first set of questions wrong, she doesn't know how to do the tenth place deductions.
This incident in turn leads me to think, should I put her in a very good school (still dependent on balloting) or put her in a neighbourhood school?? I am so worried that she might not be able to take the competitiveness. Her character is that kind, she will work hard, but she must win or at least be the leader of the pack. She might be quiet, but surprisingly, that is her inner true self.
