新加坡的居民生活区很有特色，通常都会在MRT地铁站建商场，形成商业中心，正是因为交通便利，孩子们的补习班也往往驻扎在这些热门地标。一栋楼一层全是各种孩子的培训班这种景象也毫不出奇。
说不定你急匆匆赶路经过的某个培训中心就栽培出了国之栋梁。
今天主要以新加坡最北部的兀兰商场为观察点，看看在新加坡想要孩子们玩的五花八门，学的有声有色的话，成本大概多少。
这家名叫crestar的幼教中心接收4到7岁的孩子们。以通过艺术来开发智慧与创造力为主打教育理念。号称change Your children's grades for good with DAS.
这个DAS是他们自己的系统，developmental assessment system，开发评估系统。
培训机构认为除了更好的考试分数等级，其他三项也很重要。identifying early learning difficulties，maxinmising learning potential，以及sustained improvements.
提前辨识难点，identifying early learning difficulties，在学习数学，汉语和艺术的过程中，小朋友如果应付不过来课程的话容易造成恐惧学习。在DAS系统下，我们的老师可以较早发现孩子们学习的难点，进而展开补习辅导以带领学生有效获取知识。Be it Maths，Chinese language or Arts, childrens who cannot cope may.develop a phobia towards learning. With DAS，our teachers can detect learning。difficulties early and take remedial measures to guide students on a responsive learning path.
最大化发掘学习潜力，maximising learning potential.每个学生都有各自不同的学习态度与能力，一刀切的通用教育并不奏效。DAS有助于针对于学生个人的理解需求，而且可以为不同组的学生定制化辅导课程，以达到更好的学习效果。Because every child has different learning attitude and capabilities, one-size-fits-all teaching will not work. DAS facilitates the understanding of individual needs and allows for customisation of coaching programmes for different groups of students,.to bring out the best in them.
持续稳定的进步，sustained improvements.定制化教学使孩子们在其舒适区接受知识，从而避免产生厌学，退学的状况。这种积极的学习状态有利于获得更好的考试成绩，而且养成爱学习的积极状态才能持续进步。Customised coaching allows children to learn with their comfort zones and prevents burn-out or drop-out. It leads to better academic performance and nurtures a love for learning with sustained positive results.
这样一个连锁学习中心，在新加坡有6间。每周一下午1点到晚上9点，每周二上午11点到晚上9点，以及每周六周日上午9点到下午6点，都将是孩子们的补课时光。
把您的孩子带到持续的成功道路上。
Turn Your children into consistent achievers
使用这个系统，可以让您的孩子在学校出类拔萃，难以超越。（be able to excel ）
with DAS, your children will be able to excel in school and beyond.
这个评估系统可以让我们的老师了解您孩子的认知水平，从而采用循序渐进（pace and pattern）的教学策略以最大化发掘孩子的学习潜力。DAS provides our teachers with an understanding of your children's learning ability, pace and pattern so that they can adopt a coaching strategy that will maximise your children's learning potential.
学习中心的口号就是，different approaches are needed to cater to the learning needs to different students .不同的教学方式适用于不同的学生求知需求。
DAS是一个可以帮助教师生成高效培教学策略的综合性监管工具。 A comprehensive monitoring tool.that helps tailor effective coaching strategy.
由crestar学习中心自主研发的DAS系统可以辨识出您的孩子在学习进程上的优势与弱项，并且可以基于连续11周的观察与督导记录分析出孩子的学习类型。Developed by crestar learning centre, DAS identifies strength and weakness in your children's academic progression as well as their learning pattern based on consistent ovservation and monitoring over 11weeks.
使用DAS得出的调研结果可以令我们的教师调整教学方法以确保您的孩子获得最合适的指导以及更好的达到教学目标。
findings generated using the DAS allow our teachers to tailor their teaching, to ensure that your children receive appropriate guadiance and coaching to achieve the desired results.

一路看下来，大致了解了，这家培训机构主打的是快快乐学习的理念呢。
要不然他们也不会在宣传上跟家长连发一段魂拷了。你怎么能确认你孩子的所谓高效学习不是伴随着压力与恐惧的?你怎么激励他们自发去学习?你咋知道他们能不能持续地优秀下去?
答案就在他们家的DAS教学系统里边~
How can you ensure that your children learn effectively， without stress and fear? How can you motivate them to learn voluntarily? How can you ensure that they become consistent achievers?
The answer lies in Crestar's DAS .
在crestar，我们了解每一个孩子的学习差异。这正是我们设计DAS的初衷，一个令我们的教师们识别出您孩子的学习需求的成绩管理专利系统。At crestar, we understand every child learns diffierently，that's Why we created the DAS - a proprietary performance monitoring system that enables our teachers to identify your children's learning needs.
DAS系统强调每一个孩子独一无二的优点以及学习困境 使用DAS系统的分析报告，我们的老师可以开发有效的教学策略以促进您孩子的进步。DAS highlights each child's inique strengths and learning difficulties. Using a DAS-generated report, our teachers can develop effective coaching strategies to accelerate your children's progress.

啰里啰嗦算是解释完这么一家儿童培训了。之所以不厌其烦地打翻译，一方面是想练练自己的翻译速度，另一方面，也是为了方便那些不怎么会英文的妈妈们给孩子做research的时候更容易理解。
