Eight tuition centres around Potong Pasir MRT, from Sennett Residence, The Poiz Centre and Bidadari Park Drive to The Woodleigh Mall one stop north. Exact units, distances, class sizes, published fees, trial terms and the questions to ask, plus the schools that list Potong Pasir as their MRT.
Potong Pasir has a small tuition core right at the station: Math Lobby sits in Sennett Residence beside Exit B, Write Edge is in The Poiz Centre about 130 m away, and Zenith runs from two shophouses in Sennett Estate. For anything beyond these, families walk or ride one stop to The Woodleigh Mall, where Aspire Hub, Mavis, The Learning Lab and Wang share the building above Woodleigh MRT.
EduFirst sits between the two at Alkaff Vista on Bidadari Park Drive. Math Lobby and Write Edge are single-subject centres, Wang teaches only Chinese, and Zenith, Aspire Hub and The Learning Lab reach JC.
Each centre below confirms its unit on its own website. Distances are straight lines from Potong Pasir MRT, taken from OneMap.

One worked case: P5 English at Write Edge is S$85 for a 2-hour lesson on its 2026 fees, or S$42.50 an hour in a class of 6 to 8. A full-time P5 tutor at S$40 to S$55 an hour costs about the same per hour, one to one. The Learning Lab's S$634.40 a month for 4 weekday P5 lessons cannot be put on the same footing, as its lesson length is not published.
You can also mix the two: keep a centre for the subject that is going well and add a tutor for the weakest one in the term before the PSLE or the SEC. Island-wide lists for maths, science, Chinese, JC and creative writing include some of these centres.
