Time for tutors to think about getting rid of `exam tips' label

The Hong Kong Standard:

The education sector is well- prepared for the new senior secondary, or NSS, academic structure that will be implemented in the coming school year. So too are tutorial centers - they have already launched promotions to attract students.
Apart from preparatory talks, the centers have been offering free trial lessons. Their focus is on liberal studies, a compulsory subject under the NSS and hence one where tutorial centers expect tough competition as they try to boost enrollment.

Brochures show that the leading tutorial centers have their own selling points on liberal studies.

During the recent Hong Kong Book Fair many publishers offered books and learning materials on the subject.

Tutorial centers were not slow to seize the opportunity either.
