Request a tutor in Serangoon
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.

Frequently asked questions
Can tutors get to Serangoon Gardens and Serangoon North easily?
Yes. Tutors travel to your home, including Serangoon North flats and the landed Serangoon Gardens estate. Serangoon MRT is served by both the North-East Line and the Circle Line, and buses from the interchange cover the rest of the town. The rate is the same wherever you live.
Can you find a tutor who knows Rosyth School and Maris Stella High?
We look for tutors who have taught students from these schools before or who know the PSLE and SEC syllabus well. Maris Stella is a SAP school, so Higher Chinese is a common focus. For Higher Chinese, the shortlist can take a little longer than the usual 16 hours.
How quickly can you find a tutor in Serangoon?
For English, Math and Science, 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 JC H2 subjects the shortlist can take a little longer, because the qualified pool is smaller. The most contested slots are weekday 4 to 6pm and weekend mornings, which tighten in the weeks before school tests and year-end exams. If your child has fixed CCAs at Rosyth, St. Gabriel's or Maris Stella that clash with the prime windows, send us the timetable up front and we will work backwards from it, though narrow windows take a few extra days to fill well.
Which subjects do Serangoon families usually ask for?
At primary level, common requests are PSLE Math and Science, and Higher Chinese. At secondary level, families often ask for A-Math, Pure Chemistry and Pure Physics for the SEC. English oral and comprehension help is also common across upper primary and lower secondary. At JC level, H2 Math and H2 Chemistry are common requests, especially before promotional exams and prelims.
