Is he ready for it...?

Mother did consider to teach Ethan the multiplier since he loves maths so much. Some people will think that mother is the "kiasu mother" but I don't think that I'm the first mother to do so. Mother has this idea mainly due to Ethan's poor memory. Taken longer time to teach him and it might stressed him up.

Mother did plan to teach him to memorize one table in one month. So 12 timetables should be taking 1 year to complete it. It is very painful to remember the 12 timetable in a short period which mother had experienced before. Now the problem is will the school teaches memorizing like the old way or followed the recent print out. Last time we memorized like 2x1=2, 2x2=4, 2x3=6 .... but recently the print out seems like the arrangement is like 1x2=2, 2x2=4, 3x2= 6 and .....So not really sure which arrangement to choose but probably will choose the old method because it is easy for mother.... Ha

Will he be ready or not, let's try first. If cannot then postpone until he is ready for it.
