Home Tuition in Marine Parade, Singapore

Lower primary (P1 to P4) is $30 to $65/hour. P5 to P6 PSLE prep is $35 to $75/hour. Lower Sec is $35 to $80/hour, Upper Sec is $45 to $95/hour, JC H1/H2 is $55 to $130/hour. These are the same Singapore-wide ranges that apply in every town. The final rate depends on the tutor type, the level and how often lessons run, with ex-MOE and full-time tutors at the upper end and undergraduate tutors in the lower part of each range.

There is no fixed age. Some parents start in P1 or P2 to build reading, writing and number habits, while others wait until P3 or later. For lower primary, we suggest light, habit-building lessons rather than pressure.

Yes. Marine Parade station (TE26) on the Thomson-East Coast Line opened in June 2024, next to Parkway Parade. Tutors travel to your home anywhere in Marine Parade, Katong and the Amber and Tanjong Katong private estates, and the rate is the same wherever you live.

Yes. Dunman High runs a six-year Integrated Programme, so we look for tutors who understand IP pacing and assessment rather than the O-Level track. For Higher Chinese, including for Dunman High and Chung Cheng High (Main), we look for tutors with a strong Chinese background, including ex-MOE teachers where available. Tell us your child's school and stream when you enquire, since IP and Higher Chinese matching takes a little longer and benefits from a tutor with direct exposure to those papers.

For Math, English and Science at primary and lower-secondary level, you usually get a shortlist of 2 to 4 tutor profiles within 16 hours, and the first lesson usually within 5 to 10 days. For Higher Chinese and specialist requests such as General Paper for Victoria JC, the shortlist can take a little longer. Weekday 4 to 6pm and weekend morning slots are popular, so booking two to three weeks ahead of PSLE, school exams or O- and A-Levels is wise.

At primary level, common requests are PSLE Math, Science and English. At secondary level, families often ask for A-Math, Pure Chemistry and Pure Physics for Sec 3 and Sec 4, and Higher Chinese. English and oral coaching is also common. At JC level, H2 Math, H2 Chemistry and General Paper are common requests, along with IP-track Math and Science.
