Math is everywhere, and that’s an indisputable fact! Not only do we use it regularly in our daily lives but it is also necessary for advanced disciplines such as engineering, medicine, and science.
Anyone struggling with the Singapore math curriculum knows that catching up if you’ve fallen behind in school is incredibly challenging, if not impossible. Without proper fundamentals, advancing your math skills will be tricky!
That’s where online tutoring comes in. Not only will it help keep you ahead of the curve in your regular school classes, but you also get to do your lessons in YOUR own time and schedule!
Types of Online Math Tuition Programs
While we can certainly tailor a customized program just for you, here are some of our more common programs.
On-Demand One-on-One Tutoring
Due to its flexibility and proven results, our one-on-one online math tuition sessions are by far the most popular. You can book a tutor’s time to get guidance on challenging math programs and concepts and the session will be held through Zoom or any of your chosen platforms.
One-on-one attention is ideal for students who need additional help with getting up to speed or with specific math concepts that they are lacking. Private tuition is also ideal for test and exam preparation, as each student has different needs and learns at a different pace.
The flexibility in scheduling also means that the student can have math lessons on their own time, which is ideal for busy, active children who often have a packed schedule with activities both in and out of school.
Group Math Tuition
Scheduled group classes suit students who like learning in a team environment and interacting with their peers. Each online math tutor will instruct a group of students at a fixed time, covering topics that are included in the school syllabus.
Group tuition lessons and regular class schedules help build a consistent routine and encourage a collaborative learning experience, yet can still offer each student personalized attention as the group sizes are kept much smaller than a typical school class.
Self-Service Video Content
An extensive selection of math video tutorials are available for students of different levels, offering a learn-at-your-own-pace type of program where students sit through each lesson and then interact with a tutor directly on WhatsApp for immediate feedback or if any help is needed.
The thorough follow-up support ensures that each student fully understands the concepts taught in the videos before moving on to more advanced skills.
Our Tutor Profiles
All our tutors come from all walks of life. From part-time and full-time to MOE and ex-MOE, an extensive pool of qualified tutors will ensure that you’ll find the perfect match, whether for you or your child.
Not only are our tutors painstakingly selected through a rigorous selection process, but they are also constantly evaluated based on attitudes, qualities such as kindness and patience, teaching styles, success rates, and adaptability.
From Bachelor’s Degrees to PhDs, each tutor doesn’t only have academic excellence but they are also selected based on teaching philosophy and approach.
Online Math Tuition Delivery Approach
Using video conference platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet, tutoring sessions will be conducted online on your chosen platform. Of course, you’ll need a stable, fast WiFi connection which usually isn’t a problem given Singapore’s advanced infrastructure.
Our experienced tutors painstakingly prepare each lesson’s structure, and the duration can be completely tailored to your learning process. Some students can easily take a three-hour tutoring session while others might lose focus after one. It’s all up to you!
Our tutors are also schooled in using multiple digital tools and resources such as screen sharing, interactive exercises, quizzes, and puzzles. Each student will have regular assessments, reports, and open and consistent communication between parent, student, and teacher.
Online Math Tuition Syllabus
Our MOE syllabus focuses on three key programs: PSLE, ‘O’ Levels, and ‘A’ Levels. The vast majority of our pool of tutors are MOE or ex-MOE teachers, which means they are extremely well-versed in the required curriculum and will cover key topics at each level thoroughly.
Our PSLE program focuses on building a strong foundation for younger students. Interactive teaching and positive reinforcement techniques are used extensively to build confidence, allow for success, and pave the way for the student’s continued interest in math and more advanced learning.
The focus for younger students will be basic math skills such as addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication, with loads of real-life examples illustrating fundamental concepts to help students understand how math influences our daily lives.
The ‘O’ Level and ‘A’ Level curriculum focuses on more advanced critical thinking skills, problem-solving techniques, and examination prep for the major exams. Practice exams and math questions are administered frequently to gauge a student’s progress and identify any weaknesses in skills so that the gap can be bridged.

There’ll be no need to deal with traffic, more traveling after a tiring day at work or school, or the dreaded peak hour rush. That’s plenty of time saved, which is especially important in a busy environment like Singapore.
You’ll also get to choose your own schedule and attend your online lessons whenever you want, depending on the schedule of your chosen tutor of course!
Personalized Tutoring Catering to All Levels
Anyone who has struggled with mathematical concepts can attest to the fact that catching up with the rest of the class when you’ve fallen behind is incredibly challenging, if not impossible for some.
Without the proper fundamentals, students fail to grasp more complex programs and concepts, and as the class moves on, those who cannot keep up feel increasingly disheartened by their lack of success. This affects confidence and morale greatly and often leads to students disliking the subject altogether.
Personalized tutoring can cater to each student’s learning pace and individual level, going back to the basics and building a strong foundation on which more advanced skills can be developed.
And they get up to speed with the rest of the class, students overcome their fear of failure and as confidence grows exponentially, so does the interest in learning!
Wide Range of Qualified Tutors for Singapore Math Curriculum
And speaking of tutors, you’ll have access to an extensive range of qualified tutors so you can find the best match for you or your child depending on the teaching style and the specific curriculum you need.
Most of our tutors are MOE or ex-MOE, which means they are well-versed in all the Singapore math curriculum and are kept aware of any changes coming up. For example, in 2025, a few more topics are slated to be added and Loci and Matrices removed.
Personalized Learning of Mathematical Concepts
Have you heard the age-old adage that “One man’s meat is another man’s poison”? Loosely translated, that means that having something work for a person doesn’t mean it works for another.
Every individual learns differently. For example, some might be auditory learners, while some might be visual learners, making the one-size-fits-all ways of the traditional school curriculum challenging for some.
Our experienced tutors are incredibly adept at figuring out what each student’s learning style is and tailoring their teaching methods to optimize the learning curve.
Perhaps some might use more visual aids such as flip charts, whiteboards, and cue cards, while others might use interactive tools such as games and puzzles.
