Really?!  What are the strong points pls?

I really like the combination of language learning, sensory development and physical movements for kids during the courses. It's a very well designed program. The teaching is very creative so I think kids can learn to be creative too. And, the center is very nice-looking. It's a very pleasant environment. The only thing is that it's a bit pricey, the original price is HK$330, but I think it's worth it. oh, they're giving summer discount now, 20% off, so the price right now is not bad.

Thx for sharing.  Yeah, I am considering their discounted courses.   I have a set of oxford path at home and would wish to see if the playgroup can supplpement the home learning materials well.  Is Mr Michale able to engage kids? How many kids in a class?  An hour course costing $3xx is really a bit pricy.

Mr. Michael is really great with kids. A crying baby before now is an angel in the room. :)  He actually plays live music to kids with his guitar. The academy has quite a few classes (not 100% sure about the number) with different time slots. The one on Tuesday has 3 kids, but the one on Saturday noon has 6 kids. They probably have different number of kids for classes, and you should check with them.

I just had my trial class last Friday and decided to enroll for 4 more classes right after. It only had 2 babies on that time slot and found  out two other babies didnt show up. Mr Micheal actually able to engage with the babies even the crying one. My B loves it when Mr Michael plays live music with his guitar. We started with some songs, then story telling with the dolls and Oxford set. And then we did some crafts together and finally some free-play with his music. I like how the time being arranged. It doesnt have snack time so it actually gives the babies more time to interact with other babies during free-play. I havent bought the oxford set and still thinking about it. So i think  going to Mr Michael's will help me to understand more the Oxford Set.

之前買左團購比3歲仔仔玩，mr. michael親自教，仔仔唔鐘意話好悶。個人認認為PG流程頗慢，不適合如我仔仔般active同轉數快要有新意的小朋友

請問有没有小朋友讀緊這間的phonices course? 家長請比些comment!

ddmmhk

But I think their playgroup is for kids younger than 3 years old. I don't think Oxford Playgroup does Groupon. Maybe your boy attended something different?

I learned that some parents also ask Mr. Michael to tutor kids on a one-on-one base for their phonics course in addition to the regular classes.

Does anyone who join the Oxford Playgroup at Mr Michael's Academy, but teach by some other teachers instead of Mr Michael?

I want to join the Playgroup, but they said the class of Mr Michael is full.  Please comment.  Thanks.

Just read your question and hoping that my answer won't be too late
My son joined another teacher named Ms. Monica for months, then changed to Mr. Michael's class (for older toddlers). But both of us think that Ms. Monica is better than Mr. Michael !!

Thank you very much for your comments. Is your son still attending Oxford Path playgroup now? which class he is in?
