Ms. Rachel has just finished her last lesson with my son, who will be taking his English O-level exams tomorrow. 

Just wanted to share that she was an excellent teacher who took time to give comprehensive feedback for each component of the papers, and detailed recommendations on what to focus on. Her lessons were engaging and very helpful not just in teaching my son answering techniques, but also giving him the confidence that he would be able to manage the exams. She was beyond an answered prayer and we are so thankful for her!

(1) Part-Time Tutors: In Full-Time studies or employment, and giving tuition as a Part-Time job.

(2) Full-Time Tutors: Giving tuition or teaching in private schools as their Full-Time job. Can be Diploma or Degree holders.

(3) MOE School Teachers: Trained MOE school teachers, currently still teaching in school, or recently resigned (ex-MOE).

Exact rate depends on each tutor's qualification, experience and track record. It will be included in each tutor profile sent to you.

Home tutors come with various experiences and qualifications. Many school teachers or NIE-trained teachers become part-time tuition teachers and charge a higher rate due to their school teaching experience and MOE training. English tuition, Maths tuition, and Chinese tuition are among the most popular subjects. PSLE tuition and O Level tuition are very important to give the child a last minute boost for the critical papers.

Primary school tuition is on the rise, compared to secondary school tuition, as primary school children tend to have more timeslots available for home tution, and with less subjects, more affordable private tuition is possible.

Apart from one to one tuition with a home tutor, some parents send their children to a tuition centre. These tuition centers offer group tuition or enrichment classes, and are an alternative to home tuition.

A parent just requested for a tutor to teach Pri 3 English 17 hours ago.

We just confirmed a tuition teacher for Pri 6 (2026) Math & Science 12 hours ago.
