Classes
Pick your child's subject
Every class follows the MOE syllabus for that level, so everything your child does here is work they need for school anyway — not a separate curriculum piled on top.
K1 – P6
Maths Tuition
Model drawing, heuristics and the problem sums that trip most children up — worked slowly, out loud, until the method sticks.
Primary Maths →K1 – P5
English Tuition
Comprehension, composition and grammar, plus the oral and situational writing skills that decide the upper-primary grade.
Primary English →P1 – P5
Chinese Tuition
For children who freeze up in Chinese class. Vocabulary, 看图写话 and comprehension, taught patiently and without shame.
Primary Chinese →P4 – P5
Science Tuition
Where most marks are lost: open-ended answers. We drill the keyword-and-explain structure examiners are looking for.
Upper Primary Science →S1 – S4
Secondary Maths
Both E-Maths and A-Maths — algebra, trigonometry and calculus, with the O-Level exam technique that turns understanding into marks.
Secondary Maths →All levels
Fees & Timetable
Every rate published in full, plus the slots that are still open this term. No enquiry needed to find out the price.

Three students. Not fifteen.
In a tuition centre with fifteen children, your child can sit quietly for ninety minutes and leave without saying a word. At three, that's impossible — I know within minutes who has understood and who is nodding along.
It also means your child hears other children get things wrong, ask the question they were too embarrassed to ask, and work through it. That's the part one-to-one tuition can't give you, and it's usually where the confidence comes from.
- Maximum 3 students in every class, at every level
- Assessment books and worksheets provided — nothing extra to buy
- Aligned to the MOE syllabus for your child's level
- Progress updates by WhatsApp, so you're not guessing
- A quiet home setting in Boon Lay, not a noisy shopping-centre unit
How to start
Three steps to your first lesson
-
WhatsApp me
Tell me your child's level, the subject, and what's been difficult. I'll reply with the slots that are open and honestly say if I'm not the right fit.
-
Trial lesson — $40
A full session with your child. If you decide to join, I take $40 off your first month — so it works out free. You'll hear from me afterwards with what I noticed and where I'd start.
-
Start weekly classes
If it's a good fit, take the slot. Fees are paid monthly, and your assessment books and worksheets come included.
About your tutor
Taught by Lea — every lesson, every week
You are not being assigned to whichever part-timer is free that term. I hold a Bachelor's degree and a Master's in Management, both from NUS, and I have spent eight years teaching primary and secondary students in Singapore. I teach every class here myself.
The trial lesson
What actually happens in the first lesson
You are sending your child to a stranger's home. That is a real thing to be uneasy about, so here is exactly how it goes, with nothing left vague.
Before
Once we've agreed a time I send you the block and unit number, and a photo of the study space. Bring your child up yourself and have a look around — most parents do, and I'd rather you did.
During
A full session at your child's level — one-to-one while I'm still forming groups, and a seat in the real class once yours is running. Either way, I'm working out where the actual gap is, which is usually a year or two below the topic that's failing.
After
I message you the same evening with what I noticed and where I'd start. If I don't think I'm the right fit — wrong level, wrong subject, or your child needs one-to-one first — I'll say so.
The trial is $40. If you decide to join, I take $40 off your first month — so it works out free. No obligation to continue, and nothing to cancel if you decide against it.
Right now, you get first pick of the timetable
I'm opening my first groups, so nothing is locked in yet. Tell me the times that suit your family and I'll build the group around them — that won't be true for long.
