Setting up a 24hr study place!

last SG · 2008-10-08T16:48:45+00:00

I guess the unique selling point can only be 24hrs open

gunner77 SG

bro not trying to say ur plan is bad but im afraid if ur targetted audiences is sec sch lvl.

im afraid it will fail. why?

As a sec sch student point of view, i dont tink anyone would wanna study at such a place. when i saw ur points, immediately i think of group of friends going over there to slack and hang out.

If they really do that, imagine some bad kids would bring cigarettes or beer to drink there, or smoke secretly in the toilet, u might land urself into trouble with the police.

Therefore, if this place is targetted to the tertiary level, things would be different.

just my point of view.

eagle SG

if target at tertiary level, place it somewhere more east, where it is far from most tertiary institutions... no point for students around that area to travel far just to make use of their school's facilities

eagle SG

What are you suggesting?

help do and contribute questions and solutions? :D

Agenda SG

My house here got 1, they even have tutors to help out for free, but business must be so bad. they converted most of the shop into a lan shop and now it doesn't operate 24hours and the usual ppl there are ah bengs

Xcert SG

help do and contribute questions and solutions? :D

Bookmarked the site already...will be dropping in once in a while to have a look and see what I can do....contribute questions a bit difficult as my O levels was donkey years ago liao...unless U want tertiary level questions...

FirePig SG

some community centres also have study rooms and its free.

But seriously though, i cant stand those air con study room if it is poorly maintained and not cleaned. I would rather go to non air con area to study as the air is more fresh and healthy.

eagle SG

Can do any topic also :D
Or a new subject that is not inside also can "D

xXBlack_RebelXx help also leh...

LatecomerX SG

Do you happen to live in Tampines? There's such a place near my house too.

LatecomerX SG

Dear Friends,

I would like to seek some advice on the setting up of a 24hrs study place which will provide student with the following

Will students be interested be paying a fee for such a place

I don't understand why there's a need for people here to throw stones at you, but anyway, here's my piece of opinion:

I for one used to pay like $5-10 per month to access the study room in a CC near my house during the O' levels period. It was the only place where I could sit down and finish hours of TYS questions non-stop. But during that time, I wished there was a much specialized service that would cater to the needs of a student. Let me give you some suggestions for your idea:

Nslkc SG

Dear LatecomerX thanks for the suggestion it was good, btw can I have the address of the shop that offer the same service, so I can visit them.

Dear LatecomerX thanks for the suggestion it was good, btw can I have the address of the shop that offer the same service, so I can visit them.

It has now become more like a tuition center-cum-LAN shop. Sounds like a bad combination if you ask me. I'll send you the address in PM.

Nslkc SG

thanks you for the address and this

Dear Friends,

BrUtUs SG

*sniffs ....

this thread smells like a sounding board for someone's business plan .....

it is...

Xcert SG

Dear Friends,

Appreciate any advice.

I only looked at the pics...generally cubicle-based...personally I dont like it cos of the lack of sound-insulation.

Just to add on,

Suggest that Nslkc rent the HDB shophouse, the upper level will be the study place and the lower level will cater to students' related services and products.

To supplement the income,

(1) sell school exam papers

(2) provide tutoring services

(3) rent cubicles to tutors to provide tuition services

(4) provide tuition matching services

(5) sell school/JC notes

(6) provide full range of photocopying services, book-binding

(7) engage in the publication of study guides, formula books, revision notes and

even ten years series

(8) other students' related products and services

Thank you for your kind attention.

basically running a tuition center lah?

Ahm97sic SG

Hi xXBlack_RebelXx,

It is more than a tuition centre as a tuition centre is empty once the students go home but this tuition centre cum study centre cum shop that caters to students' related products and services will generate more revenue for Nslkc.

Thank you for kind attention.

I am sure U see tables selling exam papers around but it doesnt mean its legal...same for school notes(those handouts produced by teachers)...TYS...I believe MOE has copyright on them.
