SINGAPORE’S LEADING PRIVATE TUITION AGENCY

HOW DO I REQUEST FOR A TUTOR?

You can request for a tutor by submitting our online Request Form.

Upon receiving your request, we will Whatsapp you to discuss your child’s academic needs. We will spend the next few hours shortlisting several suitable tutors within our database and network for your consideration.

Our working hours are from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week.

Tuition usually commences within one week after you have selected a tutor.

TRIAL LESSON

The paid trial lessons can be 1.5 hours or 2 hours per session.

CAN I CHANGE THE TUTOR AFTER THE TUITION BEGINS?

You just need to pay for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted. There will not be any extra charges for the change.

AM I ABLE TO VIEW THE TUTOR’S CERTIFICATES BEFORE THE FIRST LESSON?

You can request to see the hardcopies of certificates of your tutor to be presented to you during the first lesson.

The client acknowledges that it is his/her responsibility to verify the suitability, credentials and qualifications of any tutor with whom he/she engages.

HOW MUCH DO I PAY FOR YOUR TUTOR MATCHING SERVICES?

Popular Tutors is Singapore’s leading private tuition agency and our matching service is free for students/parents requesting for tutors. This is because our agency commission is charged to the tutor, not to you.

The client will pay to Popular Tutors half of the fees payable in the first 4 calendar weeks. This amount is the commission to Popular Tutors for matching the tutor to the client, and will be borne by the tutor.

Thereafter, the client will pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor.

If lessons are postponed during the first two weeks, the commission payable to Popular Tutors will be based on the tuition session conducted the subsequent week(s).

The tutor shall collect all fees due to the tutor from the parent after the two weeks. Popular Tutors will not assist in any recovery of fees.

PAYMENT OF FEES

The client is required to pay tuition fees only for the number of hours of lessons given by the tutor.

If you decide to stop the tuition after the first lesson, you are required to pay for only that lesson.

Please transfer the fee for that lesson to Popular Tutors and we will transfer the tutor’s fee to him/her.

Tutors are not authorized at any time to collect the payment on Popular Tutors’s behalf.

Tuition fees are to be paid every 4 weeks to the tutor, unless otherwise agreed between the client and the tutor.

PAYMENT MODE

We will provide our bank account information for you to make payment via internet banking or ATM transfer directly to Popular Tutors’s bank account.

If the client fails to pay us, Popular Tutors reserves the right to terminate the Assignment. This is in fairness to the tutor, who might need to give the available slot to another client if this Assignment does not materialize.

Once the payment is received, it will be acknowledged in the form of a receipt, issued to the payer (Parent/Requestor/Guardian) via Whatsapp, sms, email or other electronic communications medium. We will also provide details of the Tuition Assignment that can include: tutor’s name, hourly fee, date of commencement of tuition, subject(s), level, duration of each lesson and frequency, etc.

FIRST LESSON

Once the client accepts the tutor’s candidacy, the client will not be able to change the schedule of the First Lesson.

Clients are allowed to make changes in the schedule after the First Lesson is over. However, Popular Tutors hopes that this is not necessary as the tutor has already reserved that slot of time for you.

If you want to make changes in the schedule, please consult with your tutor to ask if he/she is able to change the schedule or not.

The tutor is to bring his/her identity document, academic transcripts/certificates and relevant documents for the First Lesson for verification purposes.

If the tutor is unable to conduct the First Lesson of a tuition assignment, the tutor must call Popular Tutors at least 3 business days before the actual lesson. If the tutor fails to notify Popular Tutors of his/her cancellation/postponement, an administrative charge of S$30 will be imposed on him/her.

If the tutor fails to contact Popular Tutors with a valid reason to inform us about the tutor’s absence from the lesson, the tutor’s profile at Popular Tutors may be blacklisted. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

LOCATION OF TUTORING LESSONS

Tutors will conduct lessons at the student’s residence unless otherwise specified and agreed upon by both the client and the tutor.

If the client has a request for the tuition to be conducted at another location (eg a friend’s home), Popular Tutors will ask if the tutor is able to accommodate the request.

Popular Tutors and the tutor will not be responsible if the given location is occupied or not available for use for the lessons and the officially scheduled timings will still be counted as a paid lesson.

TUTOR REASSIGNMENT OR CANCELLATION OF ASSIGNMENTS

There is no obligation or contract to complete a fixed number of lessons, except for the First Lesson.

If at any time the client is not satisfied with the tutor, the client may request a replacement or termination. However, the client is responsible for paying the fee for the number of lessons given prior to termination.

Popular Tutors will discuss separately with the client and the tutor regarding future tuition arrangements, and Popular Tutors will change the tutor for the client. There will not be any extra charges for the change and the client needs to pay just for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted.

If the client cancels a tutoring assignment before the tutor completes the agreed number of lessons for the first 4 calendar weeks, Popular Tutors assumes full claim to 50% of the tuition fees for the total number of lessons delivered in the month. For example, if the client had requested for 8 lessons per month, but the assignment was cancelled after the 5th session, Popular Tutors will be paid pro-rated commission for the 5 lessons conducted.

Popular Tutors will not be liable for any payment charges or issues arising from the cancellation of tuition assignments by the client.

If the client terminates the Assignment because the tutor is often late, skips lessons without valid explanations etc, the tutor will bear Popular Tutors’s full commission fee.

If the tutor cancels the Assignment after confirming acceptance (that is, the client’s contact information and address have been given to the tutor), the tutor will need to compensate the commission which amounts to 50% of the fees payable (as stated in the confirmation Whatsapp, sms, email or other forms of electronic communications messages) for the first 4 weeks.

If the tutor wishes to cancel a Tuition Assignment before the end of the first 4 calendar weeks, the tutor is to inform both Popular Tutors as well as the client at least 3 days before the next lesson date. Popular Tutors will recover our legal share of the one-time commission of 50% of the fee for the first 4 calendar weeks from the tutor. Tutors are encouraged to have a long-term commitment as the clients have vested their trust in them.

TERMINATION

The tutor will receive full or pro-rated payment for the number of lessons rendered, provided the tutor has complied with the Terms of this Agreement.

The client has the right to terminate the tuition if the tutor is unable to produce the documents certifying his/her credentials. In such cases, the tutor has to pay Popular Tutors the amount of money equivalent to the tuition fee for the day, as commission.

Popular Tutors is the best English tuition agency in Singapore.

Learn from reliable, committed English tuition teachers

If you want a tutor for Sec 3 English, we will show you profiles of experienced English tutors who had taught Sec 3 English, using the latest MOE syllabus, exam formats, marking schemes, and requirements.

The dependable English tutors whose profiles we show to you are rigorously shortlisted by us. They have proven track records of helping students meet and exceed the requirements of school and national-level exams.

They will help you with your homework, assignments and projects, revision, and exam preparation.

Careful and effective matching of experienced English tuition teachers

Popular Tutors has always been able to be effective in matching reliable and experienced English tuition teachers because we have a trained tuition coordinator who majored in English at university-level, in our tutor matching team.

Our tutor interviewers are graduates from the 3 major local universities and had attended the best junior colleges and secondary schools.

The joint-heads of our tutor matching team had worked at MOE schools.

fast, reliable matching of dependable English tuition teachers

On average, within 24 hours, we are able to show you between 3 to 8 profiles of the most competent and experienced English tutors whose qualifications match your tuition requirements and budget.

learn English the easy - and correct - way

Each of our tutors had scored an A – at their own PSLE/GCE O Levels/GCE A Levels/University exams – in the subjects that they teach.

The quality of our experienced English tutors gives students a strong edge over their peers, firmly establishing Popular Tutors as the most reliable private tuition agency in Singapore.

We have Singapore’s largest team of over 6,100+ experienced English tuition teachers. They are able to help you score higher grades.

qualified experienced English tuition teachers

Our experienced English tutors are university undergraduates or have graduated from the top local and overseas universities.

importance of hiring qualified experienced english tuition teachers

Choosing truly qualified and experienced English tutors is important – to ensure that the information that they teach you is correct.

If the English tutors themselves did not manage to score an A for English, would they be able to teach you any proven ways to achieve an A?

trust only competent and experienced English tuition teachers with proven track records

Some tutors quote the same or lower rates even though they scored only a B in the subject that they teach you.

If they can’t score an A themselves, will they be able to guide you properly?

safely hire dependable English tutors

It is not worth taking a risk to learn the wrong information from irresponsible tutors, and then find that you need to spend the next few weeks or months having to “un-learn” the wrong information.

different MOE schools teach English differently

The breadth and depth to which content is taught is known to vary across different schools, as teachers in each school are expected to tailor their lessons according to the learning needs and skills gaps of the students that they teach.

experienced English tuition teachers use the latest mOE syllabus and proven teaching methods

The MOE establishes the learning outcomes that it expects from the syllabus that it recommends.

The latest MOE syllabus and exams requires students to solve real-life and complex theoretical problems, rather than allowing students to simply recall information, or look up someone else’s answer to the question.

every school teacher is expected to teach the same content differently

With the emphasis on nurturing students who can think and apply their knowledge, every teacher needs to teach according to the learning capacity of the students in the classes they are allocated to.

This can also mean that teachers within the same school and from other schools are likely to teach according to what they themselves think are necessarily related to the syllabus and the national exams.

exam risk

Some parents and students might view this as a risk, and that they will end up “spotting” the wrong topics – or worse, be underprepared for important exams.

many students receive nasty shocks when they take exams

Every year, hundreds of students complain about how difficult it is to score well in English, and how they sometimes find it hard to catch up with what is taught in class.

And it is a fact that students will be tested on English material they have not been taught before.

reduce the risk that you are under-prepared for exams

Your experienced English tutor will show you how to extract information from your syllabus so that you can apply them in a logical, reasoned or deductive manner, even in unfamiliar situations.

This means that even if your English teacher in school has not taught the answers to the exams, that your experienced English tutor will have taught you the skills to calmly think through the (horrifying and unexpected) question, and arrive at the correct answer.

expert and experienced English tutors

Our reliable English tutors would have themselves scored an A, and the students that they had tutored in English have achieved grade improvements after they started teaching them.

answer difficult English questions correctly

Good experienced English tutors will be able to deconstruct complex content, uncover hidden meanings in the English curriculum, and teach you strategic ways to answer exam questions – helping you to get that A.

It is easy.

And we want to help you succeed.

you can be confident, even when other students panic

These unexpectedly difficult questions can range from 20% to over 50% of all the exam questions during the mid-term, final term and the important national exams.

You yourself might have been stunned by the type of questions that are on your exam sheets – you had never learnt this material before in school!

The importance of English

It turns out that even the digital economy needs people who are good with words.

Without a sufficient understanding of words, students cannot communicate effectively with others, and cannot adequately express their own ideas.

Vocabulary

So why is a rich vocabulary important to your success?

Vocabulary is the foundation for comprehension.

Unfamiliar words become holes in the text, preventing you from completely understanding what you have just read.

The greater number of words you know, the more you can interpret ideas from others, and be able to write in an engaging manner.

How articulate you are constitutes a big part of the impression that you make on others – including the person who marks your exam papers.

Relying on one or two words to describe an idea will be repetitive and not as persuasive, as relying on a vocabulary of 10-15 similarly descriptive terms.

Importance Of Vocabulary

Vocabulary is important across the curriculum in Singapore school – and is important when you want to well in the other subjects you are learning in school, ranging from Math, Science, and Social Studies.

Vocabulary and grammar are intimately connected to both effective reading and writing skills, and these skills in turn are necessary for doing well in school.

Who "Owns" English?

Did you know that English native speakers are among the minority of the world’s population of English speakers?

Perhaps even more astonishing is that today’s largest English speaking country is in fact China.

English no longer “belongs” to England, to America. Rather, English is the world’s language.

The Localization Of English

There are an estimated 400 million people who speak English as a first language and 700 to 800 million people who speak English as a second language. And around a billion people speak English as a foreign language.

What happens to a language when it becomes everybody’s language? Speakers of English adapt the language to their local context.

In every country where English is spoken or read, hundreds or thousands of new words appeared, linked to politics, food and drink, folklore and plants.

Singlish

A language’s development reflects the power of those who speak it. For Singaporeans to be effective communicators, it is best to be able to interchangeably switch between Standard English and Singlish.

It Is Rewarding To Learn English Well

English majors learn to be precise, systematic, and detail oriented as they work on their spelling, vocabulary and grammar.

Even though some linguistic concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

Learning English

Learning English is like any new skill. There is a learning curve, and the skill needs to be practiced and reinforced, in order for it to be effective.

Those of us who are born as right-brain thinkers tend to be better at creative, imaginative, passionate activities.

Then there are those of us who are left-brain thinkers, naturally adept at working with numbers, applying logical reasoning, and analytically solving problems.

Regardless of which category you fall into, the truth is that anyone can learn the basic principles of English and score well in your exams.

Do you find it difficult to score good marks in English? Does it often happen that you don’t get good marks in English even after putting in your best preparation efforts?

There is no need to be distressed because you are not alone. There are many students who find that English is difficult.

Hire Experienced English Tutors Today, To Help Your Grades Improve

We have Singapore’s largest team of over 6,100+ experienced English tutors for every academic level – at Primary School and at Secondary School.

Finding the ideal experienced English tutors does not have to be stressful, or randomly left to chance.

Our tutors will make this seemingly abstract subject much easier to grasp and understand.

English Is Fun, When Taught By Fun And Experienced English Tutors

Sure, studying English can be a challenge at times.

The grammar, sentence structure and vocabulary can be difficult, and just like any other subject, you need to study hard to do well.

But English can be an incredibly fun subject when you give it a chance.

The world today provides a big platform for students who have strong English skills.

A Promising Career, After Developing Strong English Skills

Everybody needs to earn money so that they can fund their lifestyle and financial commitments.

When choosing the next step in our careers, we want to look for jobs that are meaningful and challenging.

It is also important to look at the career prospects and the lifestyle we want to live.

Study English well, and there’s a good chance you’ll find yourself working for an established company with clear career progression.

When you do well in your English exams, you are building a strong foundation for your career options.

A world of exciting prospects awaits you.

Employers' Requirements For Jobs That Require Good English Skills

Employers are actively looking for university graduates who can adapt – and thrive – in this time of tremendous change and upheaval.

It is often observed that today’s graduates – unlike the graduates of a generation ago – should anticipate not a single position with one employer or in one industry, but rather many careers.

You will be well prepared for this future if, in your post-secondary years, you take advantage of the opportunity to become broadly educated, to learn to be flexible and to be a creative problem solver.

Career Options Requiring Strong Skills In The English Language

For anyone with creativity, intelligence, and persistence, English will never fail to provide new and exciting challenges – and lots of fun!

In the following list of possible careers, an English major provides a strong foundation and may offer an edge over other individuals who lack a background in English.

Possible options include:

Content strategists
Content marketing managers
Editor
Lawyers
Public relations specialists

Social media manager
Technical writer
Web producers

The more able you are to synthesize your English knowledge into real-world problem solving, the better.

There’s no limit to what you can do with strong English language skills.

Only your effort and imagination will determine how far you take it!

Are you ready to take the first step toward a rewarding and satisfying career?

Practical Uses Of English

Even if you have no plans to specialize in English at university or polytechnic level, there are practical uses of English in our daily lives.

In Singapore, English is main language of instruction at school and it is used in our everyday lives at work or socially.

English is the language of the internet.

Fifty percent of internet content is in English. 

If you know English, you have access to information that may not otherwise be available.     

Access to English means greater access to the internet – and that means greater access to the world.

Chinese, the world’s most spoken language, comprises only 2.1 percent of the internet.

Spanish is the second most common language, and makes up just 4.8 percent of the internet. 

Hindi, the world’s fourth most common language after English, makes up only 0.1 percent of the internet.

Students who have a strong command of the English language usually also excel at other important subjects such as Math, History, Economics, Literature, General Paper and Science.

Some people use the reasoning that they are “not good at languages” to explain their reluctance to study English. But the language skills that are actually involved are rather basic.

To do well in English requires jumping in with both feet.

Having one foot in and one foot out doesn’t work.

At the beginning of the semester, regardless of your personal interests or dislikes, decide that you’re going to give English your best effort.

Do this and you’ll do well in your English exams.

We wish you all the best in your journey of learning and personal growth.

Other Interesting Career Options Requiring The Use Of The English Language

Good writing skills contribute significantly to almost any career.

Bottom line: Communicating well makes you an asset in almost any type of business.

Quality writing is incredibly valuable to hiring managers, and it’s rare.

Writing is the hard skill that managers most frequently found lacking in their applicants.

The soft skills that they wish they would see more often? Critical thinking, and problem-solving.

Some uncommon career options where strong English skills are useful include:

Create Artificial Intelligence – Everyone knows that all the hottest jobs are in Silicon Valley – and yes, English majors are in great demand there too.  After all, it was people who write very well that gave Siri and Cortana their vocabulary

Corporate Communications Director – The applause at the end of a great leader’s speech is usually because the Corporate Communications Director wrote an inspiring speech for that leader. A good writer can change minds, behaviors and attitudes

Become an Analyst – While many executives have marketing or business degrees, very few of them have experience with telling convincing stories. What English majors can do very well is take a list of statistics and figures and turn them into a compelling story that a business audience will want to read and will subsequently want to remember or take appropriate action on

Create the next Video Game that no one can resist. Creating a runway hit video game like Pokemon Go requires imaginative writers who can write a compelling storyline.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR ACCOUNTING

As long as money makes it go around, the world will need its accountants.

Accounting is the language of business. It is an important analysis tool that provides management with financial information that can be used to lead a business, plan ahead and to make contingency plans.

It provides the most vital information we need to understand how our business grows, makes money, where the profit of a business goes, and what our cash flow is.

If we do not understand the basic principles of Accounting, we cannot run a business, nor can we even hope to help a business grow and profit.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR BIOLOGY

Known as the Natural Science, Biology involves the study of life and living organisms at the molecular and cellular levels.

This includes their chemical and physical structures, functions, development, evolution and interaction with the natural environment.

Students learn about Biology from the time they are in primary school, where Biology is taught as a general science. 

Biology is then progressively taught in secondary school, with all its branches like genetics, anatomy, zoology and botany.

Biology majors learn to be precise, systematic, and detail oriented as they carry out their research and laboratory projects.

The skills that Biology majors acquire can be applied to both scientific and non-scientific jobs after graduation.

Even though some Biological concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

POPULAR TUTORS PRESENTS
EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR CHEMISTRY

We all do Chemistry every day!

Chemistry affects the food that we eat, the water we drink, the clothes we wear, the air and the medicine/vitamins that we take.

Chemistry explains how soap and shampoo keep us clean, why an egg changes when we fry or boil it, why an autumn leaf turns red and why perfumes smell the way they do.

Chemistry is known as the Central Science.

It bridges other natural sciences like Physics and Mathematics, Biology and Medicine, and the Earth and Geology/Environmental Sciences.

Chemistry is the study of the structure and properties of matter and substances – and the reactions that change them into other substances.

The behavior of atoms, molecules, and ions determines the sort of world we live in, our shapes and sizes, and even how we feel on a given day.

And really, everything (including us) is made out of atoms and chemical compounds.

Even though some Chemistry concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR CHINESE LANGUAGE

Scientific trials have found that people who speak more than one language use their brain in different ways.

This can lead to an increase of creative ideas, as the brain is being pushed in different ways than it is otherwise used to.

Currently, many different memory loss recovery techniques are based around visualizations and information simulations that try to access the use of different parts of the brain, as these initiatives seem to be able to help the brain re-ignite itself.

And, studies have shown that Mandarin speakers do use both sides of their brains!

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR ECONOMICS

If you’re the analytical type, fascinated by the world around you, then an Economics major might be a good choice for you.

A degree in Economics can be used in many areas, including public policy and finance.

You can use an Economics degree to study industry trends, labor markets, the prospects for individual companies, and the forces that drive the economy.

It turns out that even the digital economy needs people who are good with words.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR GENERAL PAPER

Every year, just as there are hundreds of students who score As for General Paper at the A Levels, there are also many students who find GP to be difficult.

Papers 1 and 2 are challenging, but it is definitely possible to score distinctions and attain a good pass.

A well-written General Paper essay is imbued with a wide variety of exemplifications that are written by someone who is well-read and is capable of insightful and reflective persuasive writing.

You also need to read, comprehend, infer, summarize and paraphrase sentences from essays written by intellectuals, journalists, scientists, politicians, philosophers and leaders in their respective fields.

Some of what they write may or may not agree with your own value systems. Or, their concepts are totally new (and foreign) to you.

Many students have difficulty with the Application Question at the end of the Comprehension section, because students have to relate the main ideas of the passage to the Singaporean context.

And you have to convincingly argue in your analysis if the thoughts and opinions of the author are relevant, applicable and valid when seen from a local perspective.

One of the ways to excel in General Paper is to have a strong understanding of how our world works.

We need to be familiar with the major disparate issues that affects us all – society, economics, politics, business, history, the arts, the environment and their interrelationships.

General Paper trains us to be precise, systematic, and detail oriented as we carry out our research and case study projects.

The skills that General Paper majors acquire can be applied to diverse corporate/job environments after graduation.

Even though some concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR GEOGRAPHY

Geography has been called “the mother of all Sciences”.

It was one of the first fields of study and academic disciplines that developed as humans sought to find out what was on the other side of the mountain or across the sea. 

Exploration led to discovery of our planet and its amazing resources.

 EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR HISTORY

History is fascinating because it takes us back into the times of kings, princesses, horses, warriors, geniuses, wars, inventions and discoveries.

We live in the present. We want to plan for and worry about the future.

History, however, is the study of the past.

History is a great subject to study; you just have to take the broader view of what is valuable in your life.

For example, there is scientific evidence that evolution is what has enabled society to transform to its current state.

Can this past evidence be used to determine future evolutions?

This is something that History students have to enquire everyday as they interact with the past.

History is important for young students to learn because it helps them to connect the past with the present and understand the direction that society is taking for the future.

History also helps young learners to understand different cultures.

Even though some History concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR LITERATURE

Cultures are built on stories – histories, myths and legends, fables, and religions.

Literature takes students out of their own lives and lets them experience things that are new and challenging.

It encourages them to imagine possibilities and to think about ways the world could be different.

We expand our horizons through vicarious experiences.

We get to visit new places, gain new experiences, and meet new people.

Literature teaches us about the past as well as the present, and allows us to learn about a variety of cultures, including our own.

Through poems and literary books, we discover the common goals and similar emotions found in people from all times and places.

Few textbooks could be said to do the same thing.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR MATH

Math one of the oldest sciences known to Man.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR  PHYSICS

Because each of the other natural sciences biology, chemistry, geology, material science, medicine, engineering, and others, work with systems which adhere to the laws of physics, physics is often referred to as the “Fundamental Science”.

Approximately 5000 years ago, the Chinese were the first to use magnetic energy. They relied upon the pull of magnetic iron objects to guide navigators and, thanks to the Earth’s magnetic field, point them in the direction of north.

About 2500 years ago, the Greek philosopher Thales was credited with discovering electrical energy. By rubbing fur against a piece of amber, Thales found that dust and other particles clung to the amber with what is known as an electrostatic force.

Physics is the study of the fundamental elements of the universe: energy and matter.

Physics investigates how the universe began, what it consists of, how it changes and according to what rules.

Physicists explore the skies to find distant worlds, and watch changes in the atmosphere to forecast the weather.

They search the ocean floor and beneath it to find minerals, and smash atoms to find energy resources and new methods to diagnose disease.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR SCIENCE

Science is the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical, social, and natural worlds through observation and experimentation.

It is key to innovation, global competitiveness, and human advancement.

It is important that the world continues to advance the field of Science, whether it’s finding new cures for cancer and other diseases or identifying and exploring new galaxies.

The process of Science is a way of building knowledge about the universe – constructing new ideas that illuminate and improve the world around us.

Like anywhere around the world, the main branches of Science taught in Singapore secondary schools are Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

Students are able to choose their own Science specializations when in upper secondary, and they learn General Science in primary school and lower secondary school.

Take a look at the wide range of careers that we have listed on this page, and you will agree that having a strong background in Science is very useful.

Even though some concepts are initially difficult to grasp, the reward in terms of obtaining good grades and a subsequent high-paying career can make all the effort worth it.

EXPERIENCED TUTORS FOR THE TAMIL LANGUAGE

The Tamil language has an estimated history of more than 3000 years.

Tamil had a well-defined grammatical treatise named “Tholkappiyam” even 2500 years ago.

The maturity and finesse of this oldest literary work indicates that Tamil literature has even longer history than estimated.

Tamil literature is also a part of curriculum of many international universities. Tamil is the first language of the state of Tamil Nadu and the union territory Pondicherry in India.

There is a significant amount of Tamil population in Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Singapore. There are large communities of Tamil speakers in many other countries like Indonesia, United Kingdom, Canada, Mauritius, Australia, USA, London, and South Africa.

To connect with this massive market of over 80 million Tamil speakers worldwide, knowing and use of some Tamil will certainly brighten the prospects of boosting your career and social network.

Many scholars and linguists learn Tamil literature because of its richness and variety.

The tutor and the client will be solely responsible for any issues arising from the information that the client and you have submitted to us.

USE OF INFORMATION

The primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide the users with a smooth and customized matching experience.

To ensure success of the Tuition Assignment, Popular Tutors is selective of the type of students we accept as there is a small percentage of students who are not suitable for tuition.

To assist Popular Tutors to make better decisions regarding tuition assignments that match your credentials and expectations, we will ask for your personal information. The personal information collected includes but is not restricting to the following:

 Additional information which we may ask for if we believe the Website’s or Services’ policies are violated

MOE TEACHERS/NIE STUDENTS

Tutors who are current MOE teachers are required to obtain the necessary approval from the Ministry of Education before accepting any assignment from Popular Tutors.

ACCURACY OF INFORMATION

The tutor shall fill in as accurately and completely as possible his/her name, contact details, qualifications, results, relevant experience, subject and level preferences, and will update such information in a timely manner.

The tutor shall not mislead users accessing the website and using Popular Tutors’ services. You will not provide inaccurate, invalid, false or incomplete information to Popular Tutors.

The tutor is solely responsible for any legal liability arising out of or relating to the Tutor Profile submitted to Popular Tutors, and shall indemnify Popular Tutors against any and all claims, damages, liability, loss, or causes of action (including legal fees and expenses that may be incurred by Popular Tutors) in connection with the provision of services by this website.

TUITION REQUESTS AND ASSIGNMENTS

The tutor understands that the information submitted to Popular Tutors pertaining to his/her qualifications may be released by Popular Tutors to the Client(s) for the purpose of tuition matching.

The tutor and the client explicitly agree to Popular Tutors and our network contacting you via Whatsapp, phone call, sms and/or other electronic communications channels to conduct tuition matches.

If the proposed Assignment interests you, please reply us via Whatsapp, sms or through the same electronic communications channel that we contacted you with. There is no need for you to call us.

Please note that Assignments would be confirmed with the client and tutors based on the most qualified match and prompt response from the tutor.

We reserve complete rights to reject any applications for the assignments.

If the tutor is not interested in the Assignment that we contacted you with, please disregard the assignment message.

CLIENTS’ CRITERIA FOR SELECTING TUTORS

The criteria stated by the client for each Tuition Assignment can differ from case to case.

Some clients require MOE teachers, others state their preference for experienced undergraduates with proven experience to improve the grades of their students.

Tuition Assignments are based on tuition demand and how well the profile of each tutor matches with the client’s requirements.

Popular Tutors makes tutor recommendations based on the tutors’ known track record in successful tutoring.

The submission of the tutor’s profile to the client does not bind the client to engage the services of the tutor, and remains subject to confirmation by the client.

FEES AND COMMISSION

Once the tutor and the client confirm a match, the tuition rate is non-negotiable once agreed upon.

The client will pay to Popular Tutors the fees amounting to half of the fees payable in the first 4 calendar weeks. This amount shall be deemed as the commission to Popular Tutors for matching the tutor to the client, and will be borne by the tutor who will forgo receiving the said fees paid by the client. Therefore, no payment will be made by the client to the tutor for half of the lessons conducted in the first month.

Thereafter, the client will pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor. The tutor shall collect all fees due to the tutor from any student or parent after the first two weeks. Popular Tutors will not assist in any recovery of fees.

Tuition fees are to be paid every 4 weeks to the tutor, unless otherwise agreed between the client and the tutor.

If lessons are postponed during the first two weeks, the commission payable to Popular Tutors will be based on the tuition session conducted the following week(s).

ACCEPTANCE OF ASSIGNMENT

Upon receiving an Assignment Description, the tutor may apply for the Assignment. If the tutor is chosen by the client, the tutor is bound to conduct the lessons as stated in the Assignment Description, or as mutually amended in subsequent communications.

TRIAL LESSON

Paid trial lessons can have 1.5 hour or 2 hour durations.

TUTORING LOCATION

The tutor will be teaching at the student’s residence at the mutually agreed upon time, unless specified and agreed by the client and the tutor. The tutor must provide his/her own transport to the client’s home/lesson location.

FIRST LESSON

Once the client accepts the tutor’s candidacy, the client will not be able to change the schedule of the First Lesson.

Clients are allowed to make changes in the schedule after the First Lesson is over. However, Popular Tutors hopes that this is not necessary as the tutor has already reserved that slot of time for the client. If the client wants to make changes in the schedule, the client is to consult with the tutor to ask if he/she is able to change the schedule or not.

The tutor is to bring your academic transcripts/certificates and relevant documents for your first lessons with the client for verification purposes.

If the tutor is unable to conduct the First Lesson of a tuition assignment, the tutor must call Popular Tutors at least 3 business days before the actual lesson. If the tutor fails to notify Popular Tutors of the tutor’s cancellation/postponement, an administrative charge of S$30 will be imposed on the tutor.

If the tutor fails to contact Popular Tutors with a valid reason to inform us about the tutor’s absence from the lesson, the tutor’s profile at Popular Tutors may be blacklisted. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

You are encouraged to carefully and responsibly consider before committing to an Assignment.

CENTRAL PROVIDENT FUND

Tutors agree to be responsible for all required obligations to the Central Provident Fund as a self-employed person. This is because, you, as a tutor, are providing private tutoring services under a contract of service to the client as an independent contractor. The tutor is not an employee of Popular Tutors, and the tutor accepts full responsibility for all income tax, insurance and other liabilities payable in relation to any fees generated from a tuition assignment.

TUTOR REASSIGNMENT OR CANCELLATION OF ASSIGNMENTS

If at any time the client is not satisfied with the tutor, the client may request a replacement or termination. However, the client is responsible for paying the fee for the number of lessons given prior to termination.

Popular Tutors will discuss separately with the client and the tutor regarding future tuition arrangements, and Popular Tutors will change the tutor for the client. There will not be any extra charges for the change and the client needs to pay just for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted.

If the client cancels a tutoring assignment before the tutor completes the agreed number of lessons for the first 4 calendar weeks, Popular Tutors assumes full legal claim to 50% of the tuition fees for the total number of lessons delivered in the month. For example, if the client had requested for 8 lessons per month, but the assignment was cancelled after the 5th session, Popular Tutors will be paid commission for the 5 lessons conducted.

Popular Tutors will not be liable for any payment charges or issues arising from the cancellation of tuition assignments by the client.

If the client terminates the Assignment because the tutor is often late, skips lessons without valid explanations etc, the tutor will bear Popular Tutors’ full commission fee.

If the tutor cancels the Assignment after confirming acceptance (that is, the client’s contact information and address have been given to the tutor), the tutor will need to compensate the commission which amounts to 50% of the fees payable (as stated in the confirmation Whatsapp, sms, email or other forms of electronic communications) for the first 4 weeks.

If the tutor wishes to cancel a Tuition Assignment before the end of the first 4 calendar weeks, the tutor is to inform both Popular Tutors as well as the client at least 3 days before the next lesson date. Popular Tutors will recover our legal share of the one-time commission of 50% of the fee for the first 4 calendar weeks from the tutor. Tutors are encouraged to have a long-term commitment as the clients have vested their trust in you.

TERMINATION

The client has the right to terminate the tuition if the tutor is unable to produce the documents certifying his/her credentials. In such cases, the tutor has to pay Popular Tutors the amount of money equivalent to the tuition fee for the day as commission.

The tutor will receive full or pro-rated payment for the number of lessons rendered, provided the tutor has complied with the Terms of this Agreement.

DISCLAIMER

While Popular Tutors tries to provide clients and tutors with the closest tutor match possible, we cannot guarantee a satisfying match. We hold no responsibility or liability for problems, unhappiness, or disputes that are a result of the tutor or client. Popular Tutors will not act as an arbitrator for any disagreements that arise between tutor and client. However, Popular Tutors may try to mediate whenever possible and reserves all rights to blacklist any party who is at fault. Popular Tutors reserves the right to terminate or deny services to any client or tutor at any time.
