Cannan
This is quite an old thread, but I'd like to share my experiences with Cannan Kindergarten's tutoring centre. I worked there about six months ago and found it poorly run. Each week they shifted the teachers around, resulting in teachers having different students each week. This makes it extraordinarily difficult to get to know the kids. I was also disappointed with the materials given to teachers to teach the class. Flashcards were used every week and teachers were not allowed to bring any of their own materials. The art section was a joke, teachers were practically expected to do the craft for the children so parents would receive a pretty piece of art. Children were not given the freedom to use their creativity to create original works. Lastly, when classes ran short, as they often did, TA's would sometimes do the work for the kids.
All in all, I wound up quitting after a few weeks. Judging from my conversation with the other teachers, I wasn't alone. I'd rather work in a school which offers value for money.
