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.

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

Jia Yi Leong

Hwa Chong Institution

Admittedly, my Chinese is better than my English. I also think in Chinese. So switching over to analyzing and expressing myself properly in English for GP has not been easy. Ms Goh is also bilingual like me, and she taught me how to translate my “Chinese thoughts” into essays that read very well. I scored an A for my GP at A Levels, and it was all because of the writing techniques that Ms Goh taught me.

5/5
Mukti Chugani

Tampines Meridian Junior College

I should have put in more effort into practicing argumentative writing when I was in secondary school, because those skills would be useful for GP Paper 1. My hope is to be able to join the civil service after I finish uni, so being able to write position papers would be important. Mr Govid used to teach at a top tuition center and he taught me how to improve in my Paper 1 and Paper 2. I am in the Law faculty now at NUS.

5/5
Catherine Chia

St Andrew’s Junior College

Uni is just a little over a year away from now. I plan to major in Econs at SMU, NTU or NUS. I heard from my seniors who are already in uni that I need to put in lots of effort into writing well, so GP would be a good way to start. My mum chose Ms Sherlyn Tang because she has a Master’s in Economics and I could find out from her if I really want to major in Econs. I scored A for GP at A Levels, and I have applied for the Econs course at SMU.

Mr Tiong

Parent

It is very difficult to find a good tutor for General Paper tuition in Singapore. Other tuition agencies showed me profiles but I could not find any suitable General Paper tutor from them. Tuition In Singapore showed us 7 profiles of excellent tutors and it was difficult to decide. Mr Kho specializes in JC General Paper tuition for students from the top JCs so we chose him. My daughter attends Eunoia Junior College, where things are competitive. Fortunately, Mr Kho has helped her get amazing grades all these months.

5/5
Ivy Yew

Nanyang Junior College

I found out the hard way that it’s not too difficult to fail GP. I did that in the first few months of JC and was completely mortified. My brother told me that I definitely need a good General Paper tutor to guide me. He found his Physics tutor from Tuition In Singapore, so I contacted them. Ms Felicia calmly went through all the basics that I needed to master in order for my grades to improve. My first C grade was very welcome. I scored a B for GP at the end of JC1, and managed an A for my A Levels.

5/5
Khai Xin Wang

Anglo Chinese Junior College

Sometimes, I do well for Paper 1 and do badly for Paper 2. On other days, I do well for Paper 2 and do terribly for Paper 1. Of course, I need to be more steady and did not know how to improve. Ms Corvene was a contract teacher at junior colleges and she taught me how to write on topics that I know, as well as am not entirely familiar with. My Paper 2 also has been doing much better now that she is giving me useful and relevant tips.

JC H1 GP tuition

JC2 General Paper tuition

JC H1 GP tutors

Most junior college students agree that General Paper is one of the hardest subjects to score well in.

This H1 subject often requires that you put in as much effort as you would for a H3 subject.

Tuition In Singapore has 8,300+ experienced and qualified home tutors who specialize in teaching only General Paper.

Over 90% of our home tuition teachers are graduated tutors.

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

Underperforming tutors are excluded from our database.

Since 2010, Tuition In Singapore has been the leading General Paper tuition agency in Singapore, according to parents and students.

JC H1 GP demands a stronger command of the English language that what secondary school students had prepared for in their SEC / O Levels.

Even if they had scored an A consistently for English in primary school and secondary school, junior college students are required to demonstrate their critical thinking abilities and general knowledge (current affairs, societal trends) when writing the Paper 1 GP essay.

General Paper private tutors from Tuition In Singapore cover both content, as well as skills-based techniques that enable you to score maximum marks in Paper 1 and Paper 2.

Some themes that commonly appear in GP Paper 1 include historical, social, cultural, economic, political, philosophical, scientific, mathematical, geographical, literary topics, as well as issues of local interest and global concern.

When you read in order to enhance your general knowledge, you also need to memorize highlights of what you had read because it is necessary to support the key points that you write in your JC H1 GP essay with detailed and specific, concrete examples.

General and brief examples might give you pass marks, but never a distinction.

You should aim for a minimum of 2 to 3 high quality examples in support of your argument, for each main point that you make.

Every week or every fortnight, choose 1 to 3 topics that you are particularly interested in so that you can consistently read and research the ideas that are found in those articles.

Using the information that you have obtained, write essays that are related to these themes.

When you have a clear grasp of these examples, you can adapt and use them in more than one essay question.

Studying issues that you are passionate and motivated about also makes General Paper a lot more interesting, and gives you a better chance at scoring well.

Practicing writing GP essays is important because it allows you to experiment with different argumentative, inference, paraphrasing, and language usage techniques – as well as examine concepts and issues that are related to the themes that interest you.

Remember that is important that you organize your arguments coherently and logically – while providing relevant examples and facts that substantiate your perspectives.

Rehearse your methods to critically evaluate information, as well as the lines of reasoning that you write in the essay topics for your Paper 1.

Find authors whose writing styles and analyses you admire, so that you can draw inspiration from them when answering composition and comprehension question types.

Through cultivating in-depth analysis of issues using different points of view, you can decide if your originally-held view is plausible, or practical.

You can then either reinforce that view with additional factual supporting information, or you can use the information to construct balanced points of view – while presenting your unbiased opinions in your essay.

Very crucially, you need to analyze the questions carefully.

If you ever misinterpret the question and therefore give answers that are completely off-point, you will waste valuable marks.

You should therefore remember to highlight or underline the keywords and phrases that indicate the topic and question types.

Make sure that whatever you write in response to the words you highlight will meet the requirements of that question.

Work on your English language – particularly your grammar and sentence structure.

Make sure that the words that you choose actually mean what you think they mean, and that there are no careless mistakes.

Instead of using fancy vocabulary and trite phrases, you will be able score better when you keep your answers simple and to the point.

While student life in Singapore poses its fair share of challenges, it is also a period of expansive growth and self-discovery.
