thks alot for this comment! indeed is helpful... i too wld like to make a well informed decision and not jus do wat others r doing n follow blindly...Uddermummy, what you said totally makes sense. I also dont't support centres that claim to educate children when they are actually in for the money. Especially nowadays when there are many copycat centres which simply try to replicate what the original Shichida centres try to do.
I am also a careful parent and looked around, assessed Shichida, read parents' testimonials and searched for feedback from parents with children in Shichida for some time before deciding on it. Many Shichida children have excelled in different areas such as music and sports, not just academic. This all-rounded development is what I'm looking to instil in my child(ren).
Of course, it would be great if someone could do a scientific research on Shichida children to prove its method. However i can't let my boy wait for the research results. In the meantime, going to class as a pair is fun and I get ideas to teach him at home. Time would tell if the classes and home practices are effective for him. Therefore, I'd be reviewing our updates on my website, to help other parents decide if it is worth the time and money. Hmm... Like a 'research' done on my own boy? Ha...
am interested in the shicida program, can u pls pm me with more details?
