SINGAPORE’S LEADING PRIVATE TUITION AGENCY

HOW DO I REQUEST FOR A TUTOR?

You can request for a tutor by submitting our online Request Form.

Upon receiving your request, we will Whatsapp you to discuss your child’s academic needs. We will spend the next few hours shortlisting several suitable tutors within our database and network for your consideration.

Our working hours are from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week.

Tuition usually commences within one week after you have selected a tutor.

TRIAL LESSON

The paid trial lessons can be 1.5 hours or 2 hours per session.

CAN I CHANGE THE TUTOR AFTER THE TUITION BEGINS?

You just need to pay for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted. There will not be any extra charges for the change.

AM I ABLE TO VIEW THE TUTOR’S CERTIFICATES BEFORE THE FIRST LESSON?

You can request to see the hardcopies of certificates of your tutor to be presented to you during the first lesson.

The client acknowledges that it is his/her responsibility to verify the suitability, credentials and qualifications of any tutor with whom he/she engages.

HOW MUCH DO I PAY FOR YOUR TUTOR MATCHING SERVICES?

Tuition In Singapore is Singapore’s leading private tuition agency and our matching service is free for students/parents requesting for tutors. This is because our agency commission is charged to the tutor, not to you.

The client will pay to Tuition In Singapore half of the fees payable in the first 4 calendar weeks. This amount is the commission to Tuition In Singapore for matching the tutor to the client, and will be borne by the tutor.

Thereafter, the client will pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor.

If lessons are postponed during the first two weeks, the commission payable to Tuition In Singapore will be based on the tuition session conducted the subsequent week(s).

The tutor shall collect all fees due to the tutor from the parent after the two weeks. Tuition In Singapore will not assist in any recovery of fees.

PAYMENT OF FEES

The client is required to pay tuition fees only for the number of hours of lessons given by the tutor.

If you decide to stop the tuition after the first lesson, you are required to pay for only that lesson.

Please transfer the fee for that lesson to Tuition In Singapore and we will transfer the tutor’s fee to him/her.

Tutors are not authorized at any time to collect the payment on Tuition In Singapore’s behalf.

Tuition fees are to be paid every 4 weeks to the tutor, unless otherwise agreed between the client and the tutor.

PAYMENT MODE

We will provide our bank account information for you to make payment via internet banking or ATM transfer directly to Tuition In Singapore’s bank account.

If the client fails to pay us, Tuition In Singapore reserves the right to terminate the Assignment. This is in fairness to the tutor, who might need to give the available slot to another client if this Assignment does not materialize.

Once the payment is received, it will be acknowledged in the form of a receipt, issued to the payer (Parent/Requestor/Guardian) via Whatsapp, sms, email or other electronic communications medium. We will also provide details of the Tuition Assignment that can include: tutor’s name, hourly fee, date of commencement of tuition, subject(s), level, duration of each lesson and frequency, etc.

FIRST LESSON

Once the client accepts the tutor’s candidacy, the client will not be able to change the schedule of the First Lesson.

Clients are allowed to make changes in the schedule after the First Lesson is over. However, Tuition In Singapore hopes that this is not necessary as the tutor has already reserved that slot of time for you.

If you want to make changes in the schedule, please consult with your tutor to ask if he/she is able to change the schedule or not.

The tutor is to bring his/her identity document, academic transcripts/certificates and relevant documents for the First Lesson for verification purposes.

If the tutor is unable to conduct the First Lesson of a tuition assignment, the tutor must call Tuition In Singapore at least 3 business days before the actual lesson. If the tutor fails to notify Tuition In Singapore of his/her cancellation/postponement, an administrative charge of S$30 will be imposed on him/her.

If the tutor fails to contact Tuition In Singapore with a valid reason to inform us about the tutor’s absence from the lesson, the tutor’s profile at Tuition In Singapore may be blacklisted. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

LOCATION OF TUTORING LESSONS

Tutors will conduct lessons at the student’s residence unless otherwise specified and agreed upon by both the client and the tutor.

If the client has a request for the tuition to be conducted at another location (eg a friend’s home), Tuition In Singapore will ask if the tutor is able to accommodate the request.

Tuition In Singapore and the tutor will not be responsible if the given location is occupied or not available for use for the lessons and the officially scheduled timings will still be counted as a paid lesson.

TUTOR REASSIGNMENT OR CANCELLATION OF ASSIGNMENTS

There is no obligation or contract to complete a fixed number of lessons, except for the First Lesson.

If at any time the client is not satisfied with the tutor, the client may request a replacement or termination. However, the client is responsible for paying the fee for the number of lessons given prior to termination.

Tuition In Singapore will discuss separately with the client and the tutor regarding future tuition arrangements, and Tuition In Singapore will change the tutor for the client. There will not be any extra charges for the change and the client needs to pay just for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted.

If the client cancels a tutoring assignment before the tutor completes the agreed number of lessons for the first 4 calendar weeks, Tuition In Singapore assumes full claim to 50% of the tuition fees for the total number of lessons delivered in the month. For example, if the client had requested for 8 lessons per month, but the assignment was cancelled after the 5th session, Tuition In Singapore will be paid pro-rated commission for the 5 lessons conducted.

Tuition In Singapore will not be liable for any payment charges or issues arising from the cancellation of tuition assignments by the client.

If the client terminates the Assignment because the tutor is often late, skips lessons without valid explanations etc, the tutor will bear Tuition In Singapore’s full commission fee.

If the tutor cancels the Assignment after confirming acceptance (that is, the client’s contact information and address have been given to the tutor), the tutor will need to compensate the commission which amounts to 50% of the fees payable (as stated in the confirmation Whatsapp, sms, email or other forms of electronic communications messages) for the first 4 weeks.

If the tutor wishes to cancel a Tuition Assignment before the end of the first 4 calendar weeks, the tutor is to inform both Tuition In Singapore as well as the client at least 3 days before the next lesson date. Tuition In Singapore will recover our legal share of the one-time commission of 50% of the fee for the first 4 calendar weeks from the tutor. Tutors are encouraged to have a long-term commitment as the clients have vested their trust in them.

TERMINATION

The tutor will receive full or pro-rated payment for the number of lessons rendered, provided the tutor has complied with the Terms of this Agreement.

The client has the right to terminate the tuition if the tutor is unable to produce the documents certifying his/her credentials. In such cases, the tutor has to pay Tuition In Singapore the amount of money equivalent to the tuition fee for the day, as commission.

DISCLAIMER

Tuition In Singapore is Singapore’s leading private tuition agency in Singapore. While we try to provide clients and tutors with the closest tutor match possible, we cannot guarantee a satisfying match. We hold no responsibility or liability for problems, unhappiness, or disputes that are a result of the tutor or client.

We accept tutor applications only when the candidate has 2 to more than 30 years of successful home tutoring or teaching experience in the subject that they are teaching.

Here are some of the many happy students/parents and guardians who have hired
Chinese tuition teachers from the best private tutor agency in Singapore

Jesslyn Khong

Holy Innocents’ High School

My least favourite subject is Chinese. We do not speak Chinese at home, and none of my friends speak much Chinese. We are all doing about equally bad in Chinese. Our mums called Tuition In Singapore (we all live in different parts of Singapore). Their Chinese tuition teachers are very cool, and teach Chinese in interesting ways. We all managed to pass Chinese for the first time this year.

5/5
Elson Tiong

Catholic High School

Higher Chinese when I was in primary school was manageable. My Chinese essays now are not as good because I keep using the same words and themes. Mr Kho is an ex-MOE teacher, and he has been giving Chinese tuition for about 12 years. His creative writing is excellent, and my vocab has improved a lot too.

5/5
Hui Ying Chien

Cedar Girls’ Secondary School Integrated Programme

I love the Chinese language and culture. I hope to be able to spend one or two semesters in a good Chinese university after I start at SMU, NUS or NTU. To do so, I must ensure that my Chinese is at the same standard as the Chinese students in those universities. So I am working very hard with Mr Chong, my Chinese tuition teacher. His Master’s is in Chinese Language and Literature.

5/5
Li Ting Tan

Singapore Chinese Girls’ Secondary School

I tried listening to Chinese pop songs, and watched Chinese dramas and TikToks. My Chinese improved, but only slightly. Sentence construction etc were still not very good. I started Chinese tuition with Ms Khoo, who has been teaching secondary school students for about 15 years. I gained 15 marks, and I am continuing to work hard at Chinese.

5/5
Madam Yeo

Parent

My husband and I tried so many different ways to get Albert to want to do his Chinese homework. He really hates this subject the most and feels discouraged because of his low grades. Ms Geraldine is his Chinese tuition teacher now. He likes her because she makes speaking and writing in Chinese more fun than he expected.

5/5
Sean Lim

Nanyang Junior College

Guys are usually not very good at languages or literature, and I am one of them. It’s been a constant struggle from when I was in primary school. Mr Cheong teaches me Chinese tuition. We started from the fundamentals because my skills were really quite bad. I generally gained about 10 marks so far. Should be able to get a B for my A Levels.

Learn effective study techniques

Our Chinese tuition teachers are familiar with the most recent MOE syllabus, current exam requirements and latest marking schemes. Each tutoring session is customized to fit your learning preferences, homework objectives, and desired exam grades.

Optimum tutor matches

We will present Chinese tuition teacher profiles to you only when they have a strong track record of helping their students’ grades improve by 10 to 30 marks.

Accurate matches for Chinese tuition

The experienced full-time tuition coordinators who are in charge of your Chinese tuition assignment hold Bachelor’s degrees from the best local universities and had attended good schools themselves. They majored in the same subject that you are seeking tuition in. Their team leaders are former MOE teachers.

Tuition In Singapore is therefore able to meticulously look for the qualities that a competent Chinese tuition teacher must possess, in order for us to consider shortlisting him/her for your Chinese tutoring assignment.

You can perform better than your competitors after effective Chinese tuition teachers guide you in the correct exam techniques and study skills

chinese tuition

Compete against your classmates/cohort - and win

We live in a hyper-competitive world. Even if you don’t want to proactively compete, others do.

And the truth remains that you are in competition against a large number of students from your school and from other schools for the same desirable courses and spots at universities.

Demand will always outpace supply for the top (or better) academic institutions, classes, and courses.

Students with average grades sometimes have to enroll in less prestigious universities and majors.

Being in certain academic tracks often determines one’s career choices and opportunities, which in turn eventually affects the types of lifestyles we are able to lead.

Difficult exam questions - why it's happening

More and more students are able to correctly answer increasingly harder questions year after year. 

You are likely to have come across questions that were much easier in the Ten Year Series than what students from other top schools are required to answer in their exams in recent months. 

Because so many students are able to answer challenging questions, the creators of exams at schools/SEAB/MOE are forced to include increasingly more difficult questions in order to distinguish between the top and the average students in each cohort.  

As a result, when it is your turn to take the exam, the questions will be substantially harder.

In a way, it’s a vicious circle. 

Parents want to hire qualified private tutors to better prepare their children to compete against their peers since everyone is concerned that the exam questions will be more complex when it is their turn to take the exam. The students work harder in class and during tuition, and succeed in getting good grades.

Because the students were so well-prepared and achieve good results for the exams, the exam papers and results are then scrutinized.

After the exam papers and results are analyzed, it is determined that the questions are too simple because the students were so well-prepared and, on the whole, received decent grades as a result of hiring competent home tutors.

This then makes it necessary that the questions for the following year be increasingly harder in order for the exams to be able to distinguish who should get A’s or B’s.

And this makes it much more important for parents to hire effective private tutors in order for their children to catch up sufficiently.

Parents will do all in their power (as loving parents) to give their children that competitive edge because the goal is to do better than the other person rather than just to obtain a specific grade.

Also, it’s not just about keeping up with other students with better grades, but also to make sure their children don’t feel “stupid’’ or “left out’’ and end up really hating the subject just because others are so good at it.

For many students, the most effective confidence builders are good grades.

Get a private teacher who can focus on your child’s areas of weakness.

Encourage your child not to fall behind. It’s is crucial for their future.

PSLE Chinese tutors

PSLE Chinese Composition is an important component of the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) Chinese exam.

Students are able to demonstrate their proficiency in writing Chinese through crafting well-structured and engaging compositions, despite increasing complexity in MOE marking scheme requirements.

Scoring well in this section can help you significantly boost your overall score in PSLE Chinese.

Tuition In Singapore is the leading PSLE Chinese tuition agency in Singapore, and we have helped many students gain between 10 to 30 marks – no matter what their starting points were.

Each of our credible and responsible private tuition teachers have guided 95% of our students to achieve at least 1 grade improvement in under just 3 months.

85% had maintained consistent gains of over 25 marks, no matter where their starting points were.

The proof is in the robust results that our students achieve every year.

Did you know that the average struggling primary school student only has a pre-school competence in Chinese?

Before upper primary school students can tackle challenging PSLE Chinese composition and other Chinese paper components, they must first establish a basic understanding of the language.

It is important to be able to accurately identify and address the student’s current weak areas in Chinese.

Tuition In Singapore knows that all students can succeed in learning Chinese – they just haven’t found the right tools and approach to learning!

Our tutors place significant emphasis on refining your writing skills, deepening your language comprehension, and guiding you to commendable proficiency in Chinese idioms.

Your linguistic accomplishments in Chinese will increase.

We will carefully review the compositions that you have written in P5 and P6, so that we can teach you useful methods of how to reinforce your grammar, vocabular, sentence structure, or overall precision.

Rather than pressurize students to go through drill practice after drill practice – which adds to their already heavy workload – Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore break down composition writing into conceptual modules.

The content in PSLE Chinese composition needs to be organized and planned.

Before starting on any essay, you should pay extra attention to any vocabulary prompts, spend time brainstorming ideas using those prompts, and then plan the outline of the story.

When you create mind map or an outline, you are able to better methodically organise your thoughts and to ensure a logical flow of ideas.

By planning in advance, you can avoid the common risk of writing in a haphazard manner – which will lead to a disjointed composition.

A well-structured and organized composition demonstrates clarity of thought, and also enhances the overall coherence and readability of the composition.

In order to score well, you need to read the questions very carefully.

You should take your time to recognize the requirements of the questions, as well as the specific instructions provided.

By doing this, you can ensure that your systematic approach addresses the given topic appropriately, and are able to fulfil all the criteria that are specified.

Many students lose valuable marks by misinterpreting the questions, or failing to incorporate all the necessary elements.

You should therefore develop a keen attention to detail, read the questions multiple times, underline key instructions, and have a clear understanding of what is expected before you start to plan on the content that you want to write.

Regardless of future educational paths, the language skills developed through the upper primary school Chinese syllabus contribute significantly to a student’s linguistic versatility and cultural understanding.

PSLE Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore will guide you to achieve high scores in all the components of PSLE Chinese.

It is an investment in your longer-term language proficiency, cultural appreciation, and adaptability in Singapore’s multicultural and bilingual environment.

Stay ahead of your peers, gain admission into the secondary school of your choice – and unlock doors to personal and professional opportunities in the future.

Tuition In Singapore is the most popular Secondary Chinese tutor agent in Singapore.

Through methodical exposure to key content knowledge and broader repertoire of vocabulary and grammar, your writing, reading comprehension, and speaking skills will be reinforced and enhanced so that you can apply them in all components of the Chinese language exams.

When you evaluate other authors’ choice of words, form, structure, and language in various types of literary works, you will be able to build upon and apply your own knowledge of vocabulary.

You will receive expert and patient guidance, as well as helpful and detailed feedback for improvement – and will learn essential cognitive skills like creative thinking, problem-solving skills, critical thinking, analytical and evaluative skills in line with the MOE syllabus.

You will gain thematic content knowledge, have intensive hands-on practice, learn answering techniques, acquire a range of creative techniques to essay writing, learn novel ideas and varied writing styles, learn how to construct good sentences that are enriched with literary devices, advanced vocabulary, while sharpening your exam techniques through extensive exposure to commonly-tested question types.

There will be regular, well-structured practice exercises where you will craft insightful, complete, well-substantiated, and coherent responses to trending exam questions and topics – through teacher-guided solutions.

Another area that our students typically score full marks in is Oral.

You will learn how to speak fluently with the correct pronunciation, express opinions confidently and engage in discussions with good conversational skills – with proficient use of Chinese vocabulary and grammar that are aligned to the MOE’s marking schemes and exam requirements.

Through learning the techniques for writing and speaking in a variety of contexts, you can make the leap from primary school Chinese to secondary school Chinese in a structured and systematic manner, so that your grades progressively improve – in preparation of the SEC / O Level exam:

Integrated Programme IP Chinese tutors

Integrated Programme IP Chinese tuition

Integrated Programme IP Chinese tutors

Start strong, whenever you encounter new content.

The curriculum design and rigour of each of the 17 IP schools can be very different.

Every Integrated Programme school has developed distinctive programmes to give their students access to a broader range of learning experiences in academic and non-academic areas.

Because each of these special areas cater to the varying and highly differentiated learning needs of the approximately 4,000 high-ability students – representing the top 10% of each graduating cohort from primary school – it is important for students and parents to consider how each of these tracks fit into their own personal, academic, and career goals before they decide which of the Integrated Programme schools that they want to apply to.

The Integrated Programme places greater emphasis on the development of qualitative skills like leadership, public speaking, and industry attachments.

IP schools also encourage students to develop their unique talents and interests through a wide range of elective or extra-curricular programmes.

The relatively open-ended and exploratory nature of the Integrated Programme simulates young adult life in university.

It is designed for independent learners, and some students might not be ready for this big change when they are aged only 13, and fresh from primary school.

The MOE recognizes this, and gives high-performing G3 students the option of transferring to the Integrated Programme at Secondary 3.

In IP schools, some students may opt to take Higher Mother Tongue.

In other Integrated Programme schools, students might be required to take Higher Mother Tongue.

Questions in Chinese IP exams tend to involve more critical thinking skills than those found in secondary school G3 exams.

This approach is very different from the SEC / O Level questions – which mainly include recall questions, or problems that are similar to what students had learnt and practiced previously.

IP exams contain unconventional, novel questions that require strong analytical skills, inference or deduction abilities, or the combination of concepts across different topics in the syllabus.

The IP track offers more flexibility because the pressure of a 4-year deadline to study for the SEC / O Levels is removed, and students have some leeway in pacing how they acquire new information, spend time on CCA, or build their portfolios for entry into university.

Tuition In Singapore is the largest IP Chinese tuition agency in Singapore.

Over 85% of our tutors are graduated tutors.

More than 20% of them have a Master’s, PhD or are NIE-trained MOE teachers.

Selecting a tutor that is familiar with the Chinese IP exam requirements is crucial.

Tutors with no experience teaching IP Chinese may not know the difference in difficulty or style of higher-level questions that Integrated Programme students contend with in their school-based assessments.

It is therefore advisable to choose Chinese tuition teachers who came from IP schools themselves, or who had previously taught IP students.

These specialized IP Chinese tutors can provide targeted worksheets and practice papers at the correct level for IP students, and can fully understand what the IP demands from and instils in students.

Typically, a Secondary 1 Integrated Programme student would be taught topics that are not experienced by the mainstream G3 students until they are in Secondary 2.

Instead of spending portions of their Years 3 and 4 (equivalent of Secondary 3 or Secondary 4) preparing for the SEC / O Levels that they can bypass, they will dive straight into advanced topics or real-world issues.

IP Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore focus on building the requisite high standards of critical thinking, reading, comprehension question analysis, and essay writing skills – across recent developments in politics, social issues, technology, and the environment – that all IP students need in order to develop their own opinions and to score very well.

Get a head start and earn excellent grades. Don’t settle for anything less.

A Level Chinese tutors

A Level Chinese tuition
(JC1, JC2)

A Level Chinese tutors

Tuition In Singapore is the premier A Level Chinese tutor agency for Chinese Language (H1) and Chinese Studies (H2) tuition.

One of the subjects that junior college students struggle with the most is H1 Chinese Language.

A Level Chinese is easy to pass, but probably a bit more difficult to get a high grade.

It is somewhat similar to Higher Chinese Language (HCL) in secondary school, and incorporates higher-level thinking whilst developing in students a deeper understanding of the language.

Exam questions at junior college level are not exactly hard, but they can get tricky because of the nuances and impediments.

Each component in A Level Chinese is unique because they measure different skill sets.

To score higher marks in all the components, you must demonstrate how well you can read and write in quality Mandarin – while conforming to the marking schemes and exam requirements set by the MOE-SEAB.

You have to be mindful of how accurate your sentences and phrases are, as well as how to use the Chinese language in a variety of situations, handle texts on concrete and abstract topics, and extract information to respond to specific tasks.

A Level Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore will help you achieve greater fluency, accuracy and confidence in the Chinese language – no matter what your O Level Chinese grades were.

Despite knowing all the techniques to write and speak sufficiently well in the Chinese language, some students still find themselves struggling with the Chinese language in junior college because of the quality of the vocabulary and grammar used.

The A-level Chinese examination challenges junior college students at a different level compared to when they were in secondary school.

In junior college, significant marks are awarded for Quality of Language, and Content.

To score well for Quality of Language, you must demonstrate consistently accurate language and correctly use complex structures (such as in prepositions and tenses), extensive vocabulary, and a sense of idioms – and have avoided consistent errors or silly mistakes in your answers or the incorrect construction of sentences.

Content has to be clearly relevant and well-thought out, detailed, coherently argued, and structured.

Overall, when you show exceptional work that include an excellent ability to organize materials, use pertinent language, and show articulate mastery of some literary techniques, you will score very well for A Level Chinese.

It is therefore important to comprehensively grasp the essential skills required at the A Level exams, and to see improvement in your results in less than a year.

In addition to improving your grasp of the Chinese language, A Level Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore will teach you how to write essays on the media, youth, aging population, equality of opportunities, leisure activities (the value of leisure, and its trade-offs), scientific and medical advances, and ethics.

Within these topics, you will learn how to evaluate issues from different perspectives using detailed explanations – while providing supporting evidence of your points of view, and not just by drawing information from the passages/question.

Acquiring these sets of thinking skills will be useful for your A Level Chinese exams, and also for General Paper.

Achieve an A for your A Level Chinese.

It’s up to you to choose the lesson pace that works best for you!

Other major themes include lifestyles, health, well-being, leisure and holidays, everyday activities, customs and traditions, the international world, entertainment, personal and social life, communication and media, the world around us, scientific innovation, community, social engagement, education, law and order, the world of work, peace and conflict, equality, globalization, and ethics.

That is the key to learn a language – as well as the best way to be able to score a 7 in IB Chinese.

The IBDP is a crucial milestone for International Baccalaureate students wanting to be accepted into the university and major of their choice.

Preparing for the Chinese language IB exams can be exceptionally challenging.

Your IB Chinese tutor from Tuition In Singapore will guide you to be familiar with each of the components of the International Baccalaureate exams and projects, so that you know which specific areas of your strengths and challenges to pay greater attention to.

Your essay writing proficiency will be strengthened, and will have a clear structure with smooth language flow that reflects coherent and logical thoughts.

We will encourage active listening and reading, so that your ability to identify words and expressions in the spoken and written Chinese language can be comprehensively reinforced and enhanced.

Through the construction of diverse sentence structures for various question types, you will build sentence structures for different types of questions before answering them.

This will help you connect ideas, properly structure your Chinese grammar, and improve your vocabulary skills.

You will then progress to the reading and construction of more complex sentences, and use the right words and phrases to effectively express impactful essays and responses.

IB Chinese tutors from Tuition In Singapore understand the challenges faced by our students in mastering the Chinese language – so we will tailor interactive learning, speaking exercises, vocabulary practice, early exposure, time management, practice writing of characters, speaking with the correct tones, and effective revision to create engaging and supportive sessions for you to masterfully achieve your grade goals at a pace you are most comfortable with.

International Baccalaureate IB SL Chinese tutors

International Baccalaureate IB SL Chinese tutors
(Standard Level)

International Baccalaureate IB SL Chinese tutors (Standard Level)

Although you might think that IB Chinese cannot be practiced using the same methods as say for Math, practicing Chinese is a productive way to get your 7.

During the actual exam, remember to keep calm and write fluently.

It is quite common for students to have a mind-blank situation where you can’t seem to recall any vocabulary words or grammatical structure in Chinese.

Do not worry.

The more you practice, the less likely that you will find yourself in this terrifying situation.

Tuition In Singapore is the most experienced and resourceful IB SL Chinese tutor agent in Singapore.

You will acquire content mastery in Chinese by learning from proven experts.

Highly productive lesson plans are tailored to your learning pace and grade goals in IB SL Chinese.

During your Chinese tuition sessions with our home tutors, you will practice on topics that span communication and media (internet, press, radio and television, mail), global issues (food and water, global warming, energy reserves, climate change, globalization, international economy, poverty and famine, the effect of many on nature, the environment and sustainability), social relationships (educational system, dress codes, celebrations, social and religious events, etiquette, language and cultural identity, historical events, the arts, self-identity, relationships – work, family, friendships – and multilingualism), cultural diversity (culinary heritage, intercultural assimilation, beliefs, values and norms, how culture is learned, interlinguistic influence, migration, language diversity, subcultures, population diversity), health (physical exercise, diet, nutrition), leisure (hobbies, social interaction through leisure, sports, traveling, entertainment, games), and science and technology (ethics, impact of information technology on society, entertainment).

You will learn how to write with clarity and use simple sentences.

It is more important that the examiner understands the accuracy in your writing rather than to try to impress the examiner through the use of meaningless chatter.

Plan before you write.

You do not want to constantly make corrections while developing your story, because amendments are very time-consuming.

Allocate enough time to later recheck your vocabulary and phrases.

Maximize the use of every minute of the time you have been allocated, and ensure that your paper does not have any careless or embarrassing mistakes.

Depending on how confident you are, focusing on a few topics should be sufficient for you to do well in one to three topics of the prompts that you will be given.

Ensure that you are well-versed in your chosen topics, and make sure you learn how to construct quality sentences that relate directly to the topic that you have chosen.

Some students who are uncomfortable with the use of the Chinese language would prepare for composition writing by first writing in English, and then construct a well-developed essay in Chinese for that topic.

Using this method, you can also embellish your essay with an expanded vocabulary and fine-tune your grammar and sentence structures – by researching new Chinese words you can use for that specific essay theme.

When writing a blog, diary entry, letter, email, debate, speech, interview, or article, you can research topics/themes that most resonate with you.

Learn the author’s writing style, and analyze why he/she chose certain words to elicit feelings of support, empathy, happiness, disgust or anger from the reader (you).

If those words are reasonably easy for you to use and remember, then try to use them the next time you need to write in Chinese.

You will aim for accurate pronunciation and fluent speaking – while avoiding to read off slides and prompters.

Take note of the speed when you speak – your IB Chinese private tutor will check if you sound nervous and will advise you on how to improve.

Eventually, you will be confident enough to incorporate 复杂句 (complex sentences) into your verbal and written Chinese.

Typically, this form of writing can help boost the marks that the examiner will award when marking exam scripts – and will help you score your 7.

Develop a love for Chinese – the process of learning Chinese (and scoring very well in it) becomes a lot easier if you actually like what you are doing.

Of course, the first 5 or so compositions that you attempt will be really painful because of constraints in vocabulary and grammar.

After a while, writing good compositions will become natural and relatively simple.

Don’t treat Chinese practice as a dreaded time to practice.

You can view it as a routine – like how you eat food or take vitamins.

Start to consider writing and reading Chinese as a part of your day – at least until after the IB SL Chinese exams are over.

Do not leave studying for Chinese to the last minute.

Chinese is a language subject, and it is not possible to improve by leaps and bounds in a matter of days – unless you are already very proficient in it.

There is always room for improvement – when you have scored 24/25, you can still work hard to get 1 mark more.

Slow and steady wins the race – whether you get a high 7 or a low 7, it is still a 7.

You have better chances of getting 45 when you can get a 7 in Chinese.

With a Tuition In Singapore Chinese tutor, you will have personalized Chinese  lessons that are purposefully structured so that your grades can improve in time for the major exams to assuredly score an A.

This expert will patiently explain each of the areas that you are puzzled about, so that you gain enough clarity in order to be able to link all of the language skills and content. This is vital, because most of the exam questions now require strong application skills. If you are not able to link what you have learned and apply the information to real-life problems, you will lose valuable marks and score only borderline passes.

2. Use up-to-date Chinese resources

To do well in Chinese, you are expected to assimilate and recall a large amount of linguistic content that is taught across topics that include

Most of them are likely to have found excellent Chinese tuition teachers who mentored them to success. We are quite sure that many of the students who scored distinctions at their PSLE, SEC/O Levels, A Levels and IBDP had hired Chinese tuition teachers from Tuition In Singapore.

4. Optional passion for Chinese

Whether or not you want to develop a genuine interest in Chinese and turn it into a life-long hobby, you need to do well in Chinese exams first.

Tuition In Singapore has 10,700+ home tutors who specialize in teaching only Chinese. We have all the expert resources and resource persons you need in order to score your A (now, you see why you don’t have to aim for a B).

5. Aim for an A for Chinese

Whether you want a career in medicine, dentistry, life sciences, engineering or in business, banking, manufacturing or public policy, scoring an A for as many subjects as possible is completely necessary. Chinese forms a part of the aggregate score you need to progress toward your career and lifestyle goals. Make sure you score an A.

What are the benefits of engaging Chinese home tutors through Tuition In Singapore?

Grades can change your future

Why is getting good Chinese tutors so important?

Chinese is certainly an important component of the subjects that we study in school.

Many of the students who need Chinese tutoring contact Tuition In Singapore because of disappointments with the scores given to them by their Chinese teacher in school.

Some of them become unmotivated because they feel that they had already put in so much effort but still don’t understand what is required of them.

They start to have low self-esteem, which then leads to lower than acceptable grades.

This vicious cycle will aggravate the poor impression that any student already has of Chinese by the time they reach out to Tuition In Singapore.

Chinese tuition teachers from Tuition In Singapore have strong academic qualifications and familiarity with the latest exam requirements.

They can give you the most technically correct explanation of the sophisticated content in your textbooks.

Choosing the right Chinese tuition

What are the 7 most important criteria to look for in a Chinese tutor?

1. Qualifications and competence in teaching Chinese

A good Chinese tuition teacher has a solid education. They have themselves gone through rigorous coursework, and had acquired field experience in the Chinese language, where they had opportunities to demonstrate their mastery of – and ability to apply – the subject material that they have covered throughout their Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD. They have accumulated materials and study tips that they will now teach you. They are able to show you exciting discoveries and exam-related knowledge during Chinese tuition lessons.

2. Familiarity with the latest MOE syllabus and exam requirements/marking scheme

The best educators aren’t just interested in teaching – they also have an infectious passion for Chinese, which is reflected in their enthusiasm and engagement as Chinese tuition teachers. Education is an intensely collaborative field by nature, involving constant interplay between students, teachers, family members and tuition teachers – all of whom want the student to do better in Chinese. Our tutors deliver invaluable insights, reminding their students of the real-world challenges they will be facing when learning new information and when answering complicated exam application questions using the current MOE syllabus. The latest exam marking scheme rewards students with superior critical thinking skills that extract relevant data, analyze possible answers, and coherently present the information within tight time constraints.

3. Quality experience in teaching students of similar levels

As seasoned educators who each have between 2 to over 30 years of Chinese tuition teaching experience, our tutors had taught an extraordinarily wide range of students. Tuition In Singapore will show you profiles of tutors who have taught similar academic levels (eg Pri 4, Sec 3 or JC 1 etc), as well as competence levels (eg weak G3 mastery or consistent A-scoring IP student) as the student, so that the Chinese tutor can teach appropriate content and beneficial study methods starting from the first lesson.

4. Ability to provide additional learning resources for Chinese

With years of successful experience in teaching students from a variety of schools, professional Chinese tuition teachers from Tuition In Singapore can identify which are the most useful materials that their Chinese students must currently use, based on their prevailing skills and grade aspirations. The tutor will then guide the student on the expected outcomes from practicing these worksheets/exam papers, and teach them how to construct the type of notes that are perfected by students who are able to score A’s. Our students will learn how to be innovative, think outside the box, and be able to derive novel solutions to uncommon challenges that appear in exam questions. We thoroughly familiarize our students to be prepared for a wide spectrum of question types in their exams. These methods are imperative roadmaps for how weaker or even high-scoring Chinese students can achieve higher grades.

5. Devoted focus and committed guidance

Chinese tuition teachers from Tuition in Singapore make efforts to understand the root issue that is causing a student to fall behind their peers, perform more poorly than they used to, or lose enthusiasm for doing well in Chinese. We seek feedback, encourage honesty, provide ways for students to contact our tutors easily, and are attentive during lessons because we want to effectively diagnose and help our students overcome their unique obstacles, struggles, and challenges. Being empathetically adaptable and patiently flexible allows us to continuously evaluate what is working for our students – who might sometimes be affected by stress or indecision. When our students develop a growth mindset, they will be convinced that challenges and obstacles in Chinese are not insurmountable nor overwhelming.

6. Ability to spot weaknesses quickly

Our students come from diverse backgrounds and have different skill sets and challenges. They also have heavy workloads from school for Chinese and the other subjects that they are taking. Our tutors have sterling credentials and knowledge that can help their students overcome weak skills, refine strong ones or develop new abilities. Students’ needs change over time. With clear communication, we productively learn about our students, how they evaluate and remember information, and what challenges or motivates them most. We have robust problem-solving skills to address a wide range of impediments to learning, while keeping them organized, engaged, and on-task.

7. Substantial track record of helping their students achieve exam success

We have grown to be Singapore’s Number 1 Chinese tuition agency because of our effective tutoring methods and our consistent ability to attract Singapore’s best Chinese tutors to join our team.

Get the best deals when hiring a Chinese tuition teacher

Three easy ways to ensure successful grade improvement:

Reduce tutoring requirements

The availability of tutors and their qualifications affect tuition costs. 

The more requirements you have, the harder it is to find a tutor who will respond to your assignment.

The usual specifications include things like gender, a mix of subjects, a budget, a schedule, etc.

You should shortlist the requirements that are most crucial to you.

For instance, if you only want female tuition teachers, your options are cut in half.

It is also a good idea to hire two different tutors to teach two distinct subjects, even if they themselves scored As in both of the subjects you require tuition for. 

This is because most tuition teachers are really skilled at teaching just one subject.

Major national exams

Higher hourly fees are often quoted by tutors who specialize in or have extensive experience teaching students preparing for the high-stakes PSLE, SEC, GCE O Levels, and GCE A Levels.

This is because there has to be a lot of work put into exam preparation, material revision, and, if necessary, getting the student to unlearn study habits that have been resulting in poor grades in past years.

Good tutors typically avoid teaching graduating-year students after the March holidays since they will need to rush and  intensely cram a lot of material within a short period of time in order to appropriately prepare the student.

Parents therefore prefer to choose a dependable Chinese tuition teacher at least a year before the important National Examinations.

Budget

We encourage our clients to be realistic with the tuition budget that they would like to work within.

The hourly tuition rates are neither regulated nor changed by Tuition In Singapore.

Tutors with proven track records that consistently deliver A grades, tuition teachers with many years of experience, and MOE teachers are already accepting assignments within a certain hourly rate.

These tutors are unlikely to accept prices that are lower their existing rates due to the constant high demand for their services and waiting lists.
