Request a tutor in Marine Parade
No contract and no minimum number of lessons. The first lesson is a paid trial at the tutor's rate. If the fit is wrong, we find another tutor at no charge. Cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours ahead, or that lesson is charged.
For example, a one-hour trial for a P5 pupil costs S$30 to S$80, depending on the tutor you choose.
How matching works, using the trial lesson well and rates by level for 2027.
★★★★★
I’ve tried other tuition agencies before, but TSS is definitely the one I’d recommend. The service is much better.

Three Katong schools, three routes
Tao Nan School: SAP and BiCEP from P4
Tao Nan School on Marine Crescent is a SAP school and is listed by MOE as a GEP school. Its SAP Flagship Programme includes immersion trips to China and Taiwan. From P4, pupils can join BiCEP, a three-year Chinese language and culture programme shared by five SHHK primary schools. Higher Chinese tuition.
Chung Cheng High (Main): a SAP secondary in Katong
Chung Cheng High School (Main) on Goodman Road is a SAP school. Its special programmes include the Bicultural Education Programme, the Chinese Language Elective Programme, a Malay Special Programme and a Music programme. Students sit the national exam at Sec 4, which from 2027 is the SEC, with each subject at G1, G2 or G3. How the SEC works.
CHIJ Katong Convent: DSA at P6
CHIJ Katong Convent on Marine Terrace takes P6 girls through Direct School Admission in Performing Arts, Sports, Language and Visual Arts. In 2026 applications ran from 6 May to 2 June, months before the PSLE. Girls with a DSA offer still sit the PSLE, so P6 lessons balance DSA preparation with exam work. How PSLE AL scores work.
Every subject and level is covered: Primary tuition, Secondary tuition and JC tuition, plus IB and IGCSE. See all subjects.

Marine Parade at a glance
Marine Parade, together with Katong and the East Coast, is one of Singapore's older residential districts. It is a mix of private housing, conserved Peranakan shophouses along Joo Chiat and Koon Seng Road, and HDB blocks built on reclaimed land facing East Coast Park. Marine Parade station (TE26) on the Thomson-East Coast Line opened in June 2024, sitting between Tanjong Katong and Marine Terrace and serving Parkway Parade and i12 Katong. Tutors travel to your home, and buses along Marine Parade Road and East Coast Road cover the rest of the area.

Frequently asked questions
Is Marine Parade easy for tutors to reach?
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.
Do you have tutors who know Dunman High's IP and Higher Chinese programmes?
Yes. Dunman High runs a six-year Integrated Programme, so we look for tutors who understand IP pacing and assessment rather than the SEC 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 who knows the IP pace and the Higher Chinese syllabus.
How far ahead should I book a tutor in Marine Parade?
For Math, English and Science at primary and lower-secondary level, you usually get a shortlist of 3 to 12 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 the PSLE, school exams, the SEC or A-Levels is wise.
Which subjects do Marine Parade and Katong families usually ask for?
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.
