Request a tutor in Tiong Bahru
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.

School routes around Tiong Bahru
Zhangde is closest to the MRT
Zhangde Primary on Jalan Membina is about 250 m from Tiong Bahru MRT, and Gan Eng Seng School on Henderson Road about 500 m. Alexandra Primary is about 650 m away. Cantonment Primary is on the Outram side, about 500 m from Outram Park MRT. Primary Math tuition.
River Valley Primary, across the river
MOE's list puts River Valley Primary in the Central planning area and names Somerset as its station, but the school is about 700 m from Havelock MRT. For homes on the Havelock and Kim Seng side it can be nearer than the Bukit Merah schools.
Lower secondary is the gap
Families here often ask us for Sec 1 and Sec 2 Math and Science. The jump from PSLE Math to Sec 1 algebra catches many students, and lower secondary results decide subject choices for Sec 3. A tutor who starts in Sec 1 has two years to settle the basics before the SEC syllabus begins. Sec 1 Math tuition.
Every subject and level is covered: Primary tuition, Secondary tuition and JC tuition, plus IB and IGCSE. See all subjects.
