Here are some of the many happy students/parents and guardians who have hired
Geography tuition teachers from the best private tutor agency in Singapore
Wen Qi Kee
Cedar Girls’ Secondary School
One of the best things I learnt because of studying Geography is how to analyze data that is determined to be factual. Being able to analyze is not an issue, but being able to find information from official sources is really critical. Otherwise, the results from the analysis goes all over the place, and ends up wrong. Mr Sim is my Geography tuition teacher, and he always reminded me to check and check again.
Syahrulnizam Abdul Rahman
Fajar Secondary School
It has been difficult for me to score well in Geography. I am getting A’s for my E-Math, A-Math and Physics. Somehow, the “logic” in Geography is different. I understand the content but applying it has been a problem. Mr Saraswathy is an ex-MOE teacher. He has been patient in (as he says) “rewiring” my logical thinking. It is easier for me to get the B’s and occasional A’s for Geog now.
Leong Le Xuan
Dunman High School Integrated Programme
Geog is not my favourite subject. I like the Sciences more. My sister and I found Ms Ong, and she has been our Geography tuition teacher for over a year. I like her lessons more than the lessons I have in school because she gives us many real-life analogies. Her spot tests are also helpful, because we sometimes forgot important points.
Mr Pang
Parent
Steven was not doing well from the time he started learning Geography. We had already hired 2 other tutors for him from Tuition In Singapore, and he likes them. We found Mr Alistair, and he has been Steven’s Geography tuition teacher for almost a year. About a month after Geography tuition started, Steven became more interested and involved in studying Geography. I am glad we found a very good tuition agent.
Celestel Seow
Anglo-Chinese Junior College
I managed to get A’s very often for Geog when I was in secondary school. I thought since I had an A for my O Levels, I should take Geog at JC level. After getting my second B, I knew that I should start Geography tuition before it was too late. Ms Tiong had taught Geog at tuition centres for almost 10 years. She expects a lot from me because my foundation had always been strong. Ms Tiong knows how to stretch my abilities, and I scored my A for my A Levels.
Jannelle Tan
Singapore Chinese Girls’ Secondary School
Most of the content in Geog is not difficult. But I had difficulty studying it and applying the information during our school assessments. My mum got worried because my grades are usually A’s for the other subjects. I began Geography home tuition about 2 months ago, and learnt where my mistakes and misconceptions were.

Secondary Geography tuition
(Sec 3, Sec 4)
Secondary Geography tutors
Geography at the O Levels, A Levels – and also SEC Geography – has historically been known to be a content-heavy subject.
Some students have a misconception that “the syllabus has too much information to remember”, “it is impossible for me to score well, or to get A1 or A2”, or “I can memorize for my other subjects, but Geog content is impossible to remember and link things together”.
Since 2010, Tuition In Singapore has been the most respected Secondary Geography tuition agent in Singapore.
Our Geography tutors use the latest MOE syllabus, and teach according to current exam requirements and marking formats.

Through personalized, discussion-based approaches, you will engage in thoughtful dialogues, you will be encouraged to reason and rationalize how the Earth functions in both physical and human phenomena.
We want you to have a deep and strong grasp of whatever you have learned during your Geography tuition lessons.
Once we have built a stronger foundation, you will practise essay writing and data response questions so that you can comprehensively master Geography.
Students often stumble when they are not able to take what they had learned and use it to explain real-world phenomena, or to evaluate different viewpoints.
These application gaps are frustrating and demoralising – which can affect exam performance as well as your willingness to continue to prepare for the exams.
The struggles that you are facing in learning Geography are quite common.
With so many questions to analyze, and points to articulate, you will feel rushed and anxious while those exam minutes fly by.
We will teach you how to understand the requirements of each question, so that you can structure your answers effectively and demonstrate your knowledge and understanding.
The learning of Geography requires more than just thorough understanding of the content in the textbooks.

Through meaningful and intellectual discourse, your learning of Geography goes beyond rote memorisation – this encourages you think critically, analyze information, and form evaluative perspectives.
You will be prepared to systematically answer the difficult application questions.
During Geography lessons, you will learn how to identify, answer, and revise for commonly-found SAQs and Essay questions.

Pure Geography tutors
Is it possible to write Geography answers with precision and accuracy?
Tuition In Singapore is the top Geography tutor agent in Singapore.
85% of our Geography students had consistently maintained gains of over 15 marks, no matter where their starting points were.
Over 90% of our tuition teachers are graduated tutors.
More than 20% of them have a Master’s, PhD or are NIE-trained MOE teachers.
We have 3,100 experienced and qualified home tutors that specialize in teaching only Geography.
Geography home tutors from Tuition In Singapore will teach you how to use correct geographical terms (eg crest, instead of the highest point of a wave, the application of place, time, space, geomorphology, relative and absolute location, long term vs short term impact, location, place, human-environment interaction, movement, region, interconnection, sustainability, scale, change, etc).
The exam markers want to know that you had studied your materials and are able to make links between them.
You therefore must write with clarity and coherence, as well as systematically plan your essay.
It is crucial to understand the concepts behind each process – especially in physical geography.
You also need to be accustomed to the data processing questions – and what you must include in your data process questions in order to get full marks, learn the different data processing methods, and how to explain using geographical terms.
When you know your textbook content very well, you can easily answer the memory-based questions much more quickly.
This gives you more time to answer the descriptive and skills-based questions.
It can be really draining to try to remember everything in your textbook, so it is important to be able to study smart, and filter out the pertinent content.
When you try to relate Geography to our everyday lives, Geography will be so much easier to study.
Geography is an all-encompassing discipline that allows us to understand the Earth, and its human and natural complexities – not only how and where objects are, how they were formed and found, but also how they have developed and changed over time, and existed.
It is the study of places, and the relationships between people and their environments.
Geographers are scientists who explore the physical properties of Earth’s surface, as well as the human civilizations who live throughout the world.
They examine how humans interact with the natural environment, and how locations, places, and climates can have an impact on people.
The origins of many of the key concepts in Geography can be traced to Eratosthenes of Cyrene, Greece (c. 276 BC – c. 195/194 BC) – who might have created the word “geographia” – where geo means “Earth”, and graphy means “to write”.
Geographical knowledge describes the facts, generalizations, principles, theories and models developed in Geography.
This knowledge is dynamic and evolves, along with newly found/developed opinions and conclusions supported by evidence and logical argument.
Geographical understanding is the ability to see the relationships between aspects of knowledge, and to be able to construct explanatory frameworks to illustrate these relationships.
The MOE-SEAB exam markers want to see how you demonstrate your geographical understanding, when faced with application questions during your exam.
You will be expected to investigate issues, or find answers to problems that require observing, collecting, recording the information, evaluating for reliability and bias, representing, questioning, and planning techniques.
Application questions will include analysing and concluding, where you have to identify patterns, diversity, distributions, trends, anomalies, generalizations, and cause-and-effect relationships, using quantitative and qualitative methods that are appropriate to the question types.
You then have to interpret the results of this analysis, and develop conclusions that consider environmental, economic and social factors.
Some aspects of the Geography syllabus, exam requirements and marking schemes are very difficult.
Distinction rates for pure Geography are not particularly high – but getting an A is certainly very possible.
Begin a very fruitful path to securing an A for your Geography exams, by starting Geography home tuition today.

Combined Geography tuition
(Sec 3, Sec 4)
Combined Geography tutors
Geography students need to be familiar with how to analyze information from tabular data, isoline maps, text extracts, landscape photos, proportional symbol maps, aerial photograph and satellite images, wind roses, scatter graphs, simple and comparative line or bar graphs, pie charts, diagrams, sketch maps, dot maps, choropleth maps, and flow line maps.
The tools that you will need to master include the ability to draw simple illustrations of photographs, then annotate them to describe the features; calculate mean, median and mode; plot scatter, line and bar graphs; describe patterns, trends and relationships; idetnfiy locations on a map using compass direction, longitude and latitude; describe natural and human characteristics shown in photographs and sketches; and read map scales and symbols.

We know that Source Based Questions are hard to master.
There are also many technical jargon within our Singapore history and culture to be conversant with.
Exploring citizenship and governance, living in a diverse society, and being part of globalized world are themes that are intermeshed with geographic principles and findings.
There is certainly much content for you to learn, in preparation for the latest Source-Reference Question format and syllabus expectations.
Many students have found that the Geography segment has the most items that are easier to score in – all you need to do is focus on the answer techniques and be able to remember the core content through simple memory techniques, and you will have a strong chance of scoring a minimum of a B for your exams.
This is because the answers required in all those sections can be easily mastered, compared with if they had taken History and Literature.
Generally, there is less content to study and remember compared to Literature and History.
To do well in Geographic Investigation, the main skills you need to master is the ability to describe procedures of conducting the investigation together with explanations of the safeguards needed to ensure that the investigation is authentic and trustworthy.
You also need to be proficient at discerning whether the data recorded and presented can prove if the hypothesis is right or wrong.
The topics of Tourism and Climate/Weather are the easiest to score in, and most students manage to score a strong A for this section.

Many students perceive Geography to be a dry (boring?), content-heavy subject that is difficult to score high marks in, and do not know the correct techniques to answer difficult Geography questions.
They might lack topical understanding of certain Geography chapters, which results in poor explanations when answering essay questions.
Students that are unable to internalize the content from their textbooks and subsequently be able to create effective notes will not be able to capture important information that will be tested in SEC / O Level Geography exams.

Integrated Programme IP Geography tuition
Integrated Programme IP Geography tutors
As your PSLE results were in the top 10% of your Primary 6 cohort, the content of your IP syllabus is of course not difficult for you to understand and assimilate.
The competition between students in the Integrated Programme – as you would have realized by now – is more intense than when you were in primary school.
Everyone aims to be at the top of their class or cohort.
The broad goals of Integrated Programme Geography are to provide students with spatial perspectives, develop both the cognitive and affective abilities of students, and to equip them with a critical and analytical mind to make connections to the real world.
Content in IP Geography includes global climate, geophysical hazards, health and diseases, resources and the environment, population studies, climate and natural vegetation, weather studies, settlements, food resources, tourism, plate tectonics, population and development, climate change, as well as oceans and coasts.
You will develop knowledge and understanding of Earth’s physical features and processes, human phenomena, as well as study the interaction between people and the environment at local, regional, and global contexts.
Through acquiring and constructing geographical knowledge using question-driven inquiry, you will develop multiple perspectives and global awareness during the analysis of current issues.
You will learn inquiry skills of gathering and critically discerning various evidence-based sources of information and geographical phenomena, so that you can exercise sound reasoning and reflective thinking when seeking answers to matters affecting our lives.
Throughout your syllabus, choice of data sources, and methods of investigation, you will think, perceive, make well-balanced judgements, make reasoned considerations and well-substantiated evaluations of evidence, offer recommendations, establish viewpoints, apply concepts, decide, and understand the world through geographical concepts and lenses.
Geographical data can appear in numerical, pictorial, graphical, or diagrammatic forms – and you will learn how to recognize patterns in geographical data so that you can deduce, or compare and contrast relationships and perspectives between concepts/sub-topics/themes.
You will demonstrate your skills in producing a structured and well thought out response.
The rigour, curriculum specifics, and range of teaching activities of each Integrated Programme school vary considerably.
The MOE has given every IP school the prerogative to design and execute their IP lessons based on their choice of focus, as well as the learning interests of their students.
Tuition In Singapore is the premier Integrated Programme IP Geography tuition agency in Singapore.
Over 90% of our tuition teachers are graduated tutors.
More than 20% of them have a Master’s, PhD or are NIE-trained MOE teachers.
They will explain the logic, structure and strategy behind fluently crafting an answer that fully addresses the requirements.
IP schools often introduce advanced topics to students in most subjects, even before they reach the JC level.
This is to help the students gain a headstart, and to give them a glimpse of the academic challenges that they could face in future, at university level.
It is entirely possible to consistently score a strong distinction in Integrated Programme IP Geography exams – we know, because our tutors have been helping A-scoring students from all the IP schools, year after year.

The secrets of scoring maximum marks in Geography exams are obvious: 1. Build a strong knowledge of Geography theories and 2. Build application skills by practicing on past questions.
Geography lessons with tutors from Tuition In Singapore revolve around question discussion and problem solving.
They are interactive, and filled with practical knowledge of how to score as close to full marks as possible for each question and segment.
A Level Geography is a combination of physical and social sciences, data skills, and real-world applications.
It bridges the natural and social sciences, providing its own specialist knowledge and skills, as well as the valuable interdisciplinary approaches needed to address pressing global issues that include migration, climate change, social cohesion, and environmental change.
Geography is fundamental to understanding and interpreting spatial and temporal change, and issues that affect people, places and environments.
Students are encouraged to understand contemporary issues, and the complexity of environmental systems through being accurate and objective when collecting, interpreting, processing, recording, and presenting data.
They gain an understanding of the impacts that human activity has on environments, and how these impacts can be managed sustainably.
Through the interpretation and evaluation of different sources and types of information, they learn how to present a structure, coherent and evidence-based argument.
The A Level Geography curriculum uses case studies, concrete concepts, and examples to build progressive understanding of Geography’s key concepts.
Geography shows the applied side of the subject – how human intervention affects the environment, and how people adapt and mitigate the effects of the changes in the environment.
You have to illustrate your answers with case studies from local, regional, and international examples – through learning GIS skills, maps, photos, data analysis, videos, and podcasts – and you have to frame your own questions using higher level thinking skills that show your grasp of complex issues.
Themes include physical processes that control the water and carbon cycles between oceans, land, and the atmosphere; dry arid, coastal or glacial environments; global systems and global governance; and how flows of people, money, resources, ideas, and government policies can change the nature of urban and forested areas.
Building persuasive arguments requires a high level of English skills.
Math skills – and especially statistical testing – are also necessary, for referencing, critical thinking, presenting, researching, map-reading, and scientific reasoning.
Problem-solving, qualitative and quantitative geographical skills need to be honed when you problem-solve after you gather, analyze, and present data using maps, diagrams, graphs, and images – while working with digital data, factual text, and discursive/creative material, numerical and spatial data.
Sounds like a lot of work and content to be covered, in preparation for your A Level Geography exams – and indeed, some moments can be stressful when you are worried that you are not on track for a distinction.

A Level Geography is acknowledged for it rich content that encompasses a broad range of topics.
These are some aspects of the course that can be challenging for students:
- Content-heavy: A Level Geography involves a significant amount of material that articulate detailed aspects of physical and human geography. This breadth and depth of content means that you need viable study methods to manage and memorize the information. Last minute cramming will not help you get good nor acceptable grades.
- Memorization concerns: Some chapters and case studies have content that are tricky to memorize, require careful attention to detail, or have information that does not obviously connect with each other. Students might find it difficult to develop the capacity to remember specific details. This emphasizes the need for rigorous comprehension and continuous review.
- Essay questions: Developing the techniques to construct well-argued and comprehensive essays that are supported by evidence can be grueling for many students.
- Math components: Students who are grappling with Math would find that certain statistical tests and data-related modules will find this section to be frustrating because understanding and applying statistical concepts do require additional effort and skill-sets.
Navigating A Level Geography can be very achievable when you are able to stay on top of the complex content, create effective revision notes, and understand the patterns and causes of behaviour in physical and human Geography.

- Active learning. Instead of passively reading your textbooks and notes, it is better that you purposefully engage with the content. This involves summarizing information in your own words, teaching the more difficult concepts to others, or engaging in group discussions with peers who are already scoring well in Geography. Exploring different perspectives from other high-achieving Geography students, and discussing challenging topics can enhance your learning experience and reinforce your understanding of International Baccalaureate Geography

It is preferable that your essay does not contain unnecessary words and overly descriptive sentences.

![How to study for geography How to study for geography](https://tuitioninsingapore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/How-to-study-for-geography.jpg)
How to study for Geography
How to study for Geography
These are proven methods on how to study Geography:
- Choose what to memorize. There is a lot of information to remember, analyze, and present to the examiners. What sets the good students apart from the struggling ones is that good students know what to memorize
- Improve your long-term memory. Many scientific studies have found that over 66% of material is lost within 7 days if it is not reviewed again, and 88% is gone after 6 weeks. Your revision schedule must combat this tendency for the brain to mostly remember the information that you had just learned. You therefore need to make sure that the knowledge gets locked into your longer-term memory. Regularly reviewing prior knowledge will help train your brain to get used to retrieving information across the different topics that you had been studying
- Start with the continents. Geography is a whole lot easier when we begin at the basic level. One of the most fundamental levels of Geography starts with the knowledge about each continent. At this fundamental stage, we don’t necessarily have to know about all the countries that are in each continent. Rather, we can start by learning where each continent is located in the globe, and where are their borders with other continents and oceans. This helps you become better orientated to where the major landmasses are – and will help you better understand the reasons why the culture, climate, and history of these countries/continents have developed to what they are today
- Be conversant with large bodies of water. Fertile rivers gave birth and life to early civilizations, and the seas provided people with food. Major ports and cities – and trade – are typically found near the mouth of rivers, and where land meets the sea
- Use current events, or historical occurrences to help you remember better. Geography is about landmasses, climate, and maps. It is also about history and current events, and the human activities that contribute to the overall shape of a landmass. You can make connections as to what happened in the past, and where it happened, so that you can better remember the information
- Know your case studies. Analyze and remember them well, so that you can apply your textbook knowledge even when you are faced with unconventional application questions
- Visualize. Visual information is one of the most powerful methods of learning any subject – including Geography. Once you learn the location of a country or landmark, try to imagine their location along with the countries or bodies of water that surround it. This will fortify your memory of that country or landmark, and make it easier for you to recall important data the next time you are asked about that country
- Have a good quality map for easy reference. When studying Geography, you are studying the physical features of the Earth. Maps allow you to determine where a specific country or landmark is located. With a good map, you will be able to remember locations better because you will be able to quickly see where they can be found, instead of just guessing which part of the Earth or a continent they belong to. Most Geography tests and assessments do not allow students to bring maps with them, so while maps are useful when you are preparing for exams, you should not get overly reliant on them
- Practice on Geography test papers. To hasten your learning of Geography, using past-year Geography test papers is one of the more effective ways to be aware of where your weaknesses are, and to have a clearer understanding of what the questions require you to do. After you have studied, understood, and revised the content that you need to know for your exam, you should use past test papers to assess your knowledge and practice applying your understanding of the key concepts and terms that had been described in your class notes or textbook. Pay attention to the types of questions that are being asked, and identify the reasons why you were not able answer them adequately. Answer keys and/or explanations by your Geography tutor from Tuition In Singapore will help you gain a better understanding of the correct and incorrect responses. Ensure readiness for each of your tests and assessments by practicing regularly and consistently
- Recognize the command words in your exam questions. This factor alone can mean the difference between barely passing, and scoring a strong distinction. Command words include: assess, analyze, compare, summarize, why, interpret, to what extent, evaluate, discuss, calculate, explore, what is meant by, define, describe, review, explain, outline, suggest reasons for, examine, and justify
Whether you are studying Geography as a student in Singapore, Europe, or the United States, the ways to effectively study Geography remain the same.
Geography is the study of the world.
The knowledge that we have derived from the field of Geography has played a major role in shaping the world as we know it.
With Geography, we are able to observe, chart and measure the land, the sea, and the sky at the local, regional, and international scales – and to describe the natural and socio-cultural processes and systems of which humans, animals and vegetation are part.
Geographers gather data through surveys, observation, specimen sampling, mapping, remote sensing, and interviews – and produce useful geographical knowledge.
Data and methods can be qualitative, quantitative or a combination of both.
Geography has helped our ancestors navigate their way through mountains, oceans, and deserts, in order to arrive at more bountiful and comfortable locations.
In a more modern context, it has helped tourists not get lost when they are visiting unfamiliar cities or the countryside for the first time.
We need to score well for our Geography exams.
