Primary School

Our primary science tuition prioritizes building a rock-solid foundation of fundamentals upon which more complex science concepts can be built.

Our private science tutors will use real-life situations and examples to teach scientific principles to pique the interest of young students and impart knowledge that can be used for a lifetime.

Constant feedback and assessments are also conducted to ensure that there are no gaps in student’s knowledge that could hinder progression in the future.

In the primary science tuition, focus will also be given to preparing the student for the PSLE exams, which science remains an important part of.

Secondary School

Secondary science tuition has various disciplines including physics, chemistry, and biology. Our tutors teach all levels from combined sciences, pure sciences, and the IP and IB programs.

More advanced scientific principles will be covered based on each student’s chosen discipline, and in the upper secondary levels, more priority will be given to examination prep for the ‘O’ or ‘N’ level.

Junior College

JC or A Level science tuition encompasses the subjects of physics, chemistry, and biology, or some sort of combination of one or more subjects. The main goal would be to ace those ‘A’ Levels and open the doors for further study in the science field, paving the way for a successful scientific career.

IB and IGCSE Science

The IGCSE is the UK equivalent of the GCE ‘O’ Levels, while the IB (International Baccalaureate) Diploma is an internationally recognised diploma that many universities worldwide utilize for admission and assessment.

Our IB science program focuses on helping students obtain a good grade in the IB Diploma which can significantly help with admissions into the university of their choice.

Qualifications of Science Tutors

Our team of highly qualified science tutors come from all walks of lifeand a solid science background. From Bachelor’s Degrees to PhDs, many of them are MOE or ex-MOE teachers, which means they know how to teach students the Singapore syllabus like the back of their hand.

Not only are our experienced tutors recruited based on their academic qualifications, but we also value other skills like teaching methods, proven results, adaptability, and versatility. Our best science tutors also possess many soft skills like kindness, patience, and understanding.

Why Have A Private Science Tutor?

Whether good or bad, in Singapore’s competitive landscape, grades are oh-so-important. Having private science tuition classes might just be your way to boost just that. Here are the many ways that having tuition can help.

Edit Content

One-on-One Attention

A typical primary or secondary school class has about 30 to 40 students, and a Junior College class has only slightly fewer than that. That’s a LOT of students for the poor science teachers to keep an eye on, and it would be unreasonable to expect him or her to show dedicated attention to each one.

With a private tutor, you or your child would have the undivided attention of the tutor, who can tailor a lesson plan to suit each individual’s requirements.

Without fighting for attention with countless other classmates, the student can be free to voice opinions and preferences without the fear of affecting others.

Learning Pace and Learning Styles

Each student learns at a different pace. If a student learns at a faster pace than the rest of the class, he or she might get bored and lose valuable interest in the subject. Worse, if students struggle or lag, they will find it challenging, if not impossible, to catch up on scientific concepts.

Without a proper foundation, learning more complex principles is daunting to some, and constant mistakes can lead to extremely detrimental impacts on self-confidence.

With private science tuition, a student is free to learn at a comfortable pace, going back to basics to grasp fundamental concepts before moving on to more advanced topics.

Gaps in knowledge and mistakes can also be easily identified and dealt with before you study science at a higher level.

Also, each of our professional science tutors have unique teaching methodologies, each student has an individual learning style. Some students might learn by memorization, some by visualization, and others by associating scientific theory with real-life applications.

Our team of qualified private science tutors in Singapore are skilled in identifying the particular learning style of each student and tailoring a learning plan and teaching style to optimize the learning curve and critical thinking skills.

Flexible Scheduling

Academic obligations can be overwhelming whether you are in primary school, secondary school, or a tertiary institution.

It is hard enough to balance school activities like classes, homework, examination prep, ECAs, and CCAs, but when you throw out-of-school activities into the mix, it can be challenging for both students and their parents to cope.

With private tuition, our tutors will try their utmost to accommodate YOUR schedule, which can free up the student’s time to partake in other activities at their leisure. Or simply have some “me time!”.

In addition, we also offer online science tuition in both private and group settings. Private tuition has been proven to show the best results, but some students learn best in a collaborative environment together with other encouraging students and will thrive in a group tuition class.

Proven Academic Results

While there certainly are exceptions to every rule, the overwhelming majority of students who have private tuition have shown dramatic improvement in grades and scientific knowledge.

Good private science tutors will offer a multitude of past-year practice tests and examinations, giving the student ample opportunities to overcome any exam anxiety and be more relaxed, which usually leads to better grades.

With an improvement in grades also comes greater self-confidence, which encourages students to develop a keener interest and love in learning science.
