Seven tuition centres in Kallang, from the Boon Keng Road and Geylang Bahru blocks to City Square Mall beside Farrer Park MRT and Whampoa Drive. Exact units, walking distances, levels, published fees, trial terms and the questions to ask, plus the schools MOE places in Kallang.
Kallang is a planning area of small estates rather than one town centre, so its tuition is spread out. In Boon Keng, Lynn Tuition Centre has two ground-floor units on Boon Keng Road and Read Think Learn runs from Kallang Community Club, all within about 350 m of Boon Keng MRT. Lynn's third unit is in Geylang Bahru, and Read Think Learn's second outlet is in Geylang West Community Club near Kallang MRT.
City Square Mall, beside Farrer Park MRT, is the other cluster: Hua Cheng for Chinese, I Can Read for reading, Kumon for self-paced Maths and language, and MindChamps MindSpace for student care and P1 to P5 enrichment. AlphaOmegaMath teaches Maths from a Whampoa Drive block.
Distances are straight lines from the nearest MRT, taken from OneMap.

Any level up to JC and IB
Best for
A child who works steadily in a group
A child who is behind, anxious, or in JC
A quick check on cost: four weekly 1.5-hour lessons with a part-time P5 tutor at S$30 to S$40 an hour come to S$180 to S$240 a month, one to one. Lynn's Boon Keng 1 charges S$200 a month for one weekly 1.5-hour P5 class in a subject, in a group, so ask how many lessons that covers before comparing.
Kallang families often keep a centre near home for one subject and add a tutor for the hardest one before the PSLE or the SEC. Island-wide lists for maths, Chinese, English and JC give more options.

Choosing a centre in Kallang
1Pick the cluster you passBoon Keng Road and Geylang Bahru suit HDB families on those streets. City Square Mall suits families near Farrer Park or Whampoa.
2Name the subjectAlphaOmegaMath is a Maths specialist and Hua Cheng teaches only Chinese. Lynn and Read Think Learn cover several subjects.
3Ask what the fee buysLynn's Boon Keng 1 fee is per subject per month. Ask every centre for the lessons in a month, lesson length, registration and deposit.
4Check the unitLynn and Read Think Learn have two or three Kallang addresses each. Confirm which one runs your child's class.
5Know the methodKumon is self-paced worksheets, MindChamps MindSpace pairs student care with a set enrichment programme, the rest are taught classes.
6Review after a termIf school marks have not moved, ask the centre for a plan, or change.

Common questions
Which tuition centres are near Boon Keng MRT?
Lynn Tuition Centre at Blk 22 Boon Keng Road, about 210 m away, and Blk 6 Boon Keng Road, about 340 m, and Read Think Learn in Kallang Community Club, about 240 m, all on OneMap.
Which tuition centres are in City Square Mall?
Kumon at #06-09, Hua Cheng at #07-07/08, I Can Read at #07-09 and MindChamps MindSpace at #09-09/10, at 180 Kitchener Road beside Farrer Park MRT.
Is there a tuition centre in Geylang Bahru?
Lynn Tuition Centre is at Blk 56 Geylang Bahru, #01-3589, about 450 m from Geylang Bahru MRT. Read Think Learn's second outlet is in Geylang West Community Club on Upper Boon Keng Road, about 480 m from Kallang MRT.
How much does tuition in Kallang cost?
Lynn is the only centre here that publishes a fee for a Kallang unit. At Boon Keng 1 it charges S$150 to S$220 a month per subject for one weekly class of 1 to 1.5 hours. The other six quote on enquiry.
Where can a JC student get tuition in Kallang?
Lynn lists JC among its levels, with Economics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology among its subjects, and Read Think Learn offers JC master classes in Chemistry, Physics, Maths and English, booked at a chosen time. Neither shows a JC class on its Kallang timetables, so ask before enrolling. AlphaOmegaMath runs pre-university Maths across its centres. Dunman High on Tanjong Rhu Road is the area's only school with JC classes.
Where is Chinese tuition in Kallang?
Hua Cheng at City Square Mall teaches only Chinese, from N1 to secondary Higher Chinese. Read Think Learn has Chinese classes on both Kallang timetables, and Lynn and MindChamps MindSpace also teach Chinese.
Which Kallang centres combine student care and tuition?
Read Think Learn runs after-school student care at Boon Keng, Geylang West and Kallang alongside its tuition. MindChamps MindSpace at City Square Mall runs student care with P1 to P5 enrichment.
Is there a tuition centre in Tanjong Rhu or Kallang Riverside?
None of the seven on this list has a unit on that side of the Kallang Basin. Families there can use the City Square Mall centres or a home tutor.
When does a home tutor make more sense in Kallang?
When home is in Tanjong Rhu or Kallang Riverside, far from both clusters, when a JC student needs a subject the centres do not list, or when the weak spot is one topic. Our rate card runs from S$25 an hour for lower primary to S$130 for ex-MOE JC tutors.
