Common FAQs

As many would ask, here are the FAQs for easy reference. Otherwise you may also view it under "Finding a Tutor" post.

1. I need to find a tutor for my child, how do I go about it?

First, you email us (yourkidstuition@gmail.com) on your requirements (ie: subjects, address, budget) and we will shortlist our pool of available tutors and email you their profile for you to make a choice. 

2. Where do you get your tutors?

Our tutors are from Your Kids' Tuition private database which comprises of about 300 tutors islandwide and still growing. Qualification of our tutors ranges from A levels to Degree holders, full time tutors to school and ex-teachers. They are a current pool of Singaporeans who loves and have the passion to teach and do it either on a part time or full time basis.

3. How are these tutors qualified?

Tutors who like to apply to be in my database have to submit a copy of their NRIC, certs, such as O levels, PSLE, Diploma or Degree for verification.

4. I have chosen my tutor that you recommended, now what?

Great. We may now start arranging dates where the tutor can start the first lesson. 

5. I am not sure if the tutor is suitable for my child, can I stop the lessons if I find she/he is not suitable?

Yes you may. However, it has to be after one(1) month. Meaning, the tutor must have taught one(1) month or 8 lessons (1.5 hrs/lesson) equivalent. A one(1) month period would be a fairer timeline.

6. Now the tutor has started teaching, what are your fees?

We do not charge any upfront or shortlisting or service fees. Once the tutor has taught for 2 weeks (2, 4 lessons) we would require to pay us 50% of the stipulated tuition fees agreed. The remaining 50% will go to the tutor at the end of the 1 month. Therefore, you pay nothing extra. From the second month onwards, 100% will go straight to the tutor henceforth. 

7. How long does it take to find my child a tutor?

Once you have emailed us your requirements, shortlisting would take 1-3 days and once you have shortlisted the tutor, she/he may start immediately following your preferred day/timing.

Assignments ( May- August)

Hi all,

 

I do apologize for the lack of updates. The tuition centre is growing and overflowing with new students. No wonder my time are fully zapped. =)

From this month on, I will not be updating on the closed cases.

For record purposes,

May-August: Total closed cases: 43

To all tutor seekers,

I am still working on coordinating if you all are wondering. Pour in your request and I will match one within the shortest time possible. =)

Thank you!

Assignments Closed- March

Total Assignments Closed: 11

Breakdown:
1 Primary 1's
3 Primary 5's
1 Primary 6's
2 Secondary 1 Exp
1 Secondary 2 N/A
1 Secondary 3
2 Secondary 4 O'levels

Update: Most tuitions are now mostly conducted once/week 2 hours each lesson. (High preference for both tutors and students) Of cos' twice a week, 1.5 hours each lesson is also still an on-going preference.


Sorry to all if you realized I have not updated my website that much, busyness mainly due to the high influx of tuition assignments to be coordinated( guess the mid-year exams are nearing), as well as my own home group and private tuition. Thanks for all your understanding.

Introduction

Hello there!

Thank you for visiting my humble site. :)

If you have came in here for a look, I am sure you have a need- that is to find your kid a good tutor to either improve his/her grades in school or maintain his/her current good grades.

The current education system is not only competitive but challenging and demanding at the same time. All for a common purpose- that is to steer the younger generation to greater heights in terms of capability and ability and Singapore to being a highly recognized education hub.

There might be extra after-school classes for your kid right now, but sometimes you wonder if he/she is getting enough help otherwise the grades wouldn't be dropping. There might be other factors your kid is facing, it could be stress or peer pressure or the like. Hence, 1-1 home tuition or small group tuition will help them gain that extra help they truly need.

Being parents, we always want the best for our kid- that is getting them the best education so that they will grow up to be somebody. That of course, not compromising their childhood play time, social time and family time.

Therefore, if you're pressed for time but keen on looking for a good tutor to help your kids with their studies; please do not hesitate to call me/email me your queries. I would be most willing to help. All you need to do is drop me a mail/call me with your specific requirements! :)





Thank you for your support. Do remember to refer your friends/relatives/colleagues too! :)


Regards,
Deb & Lily

Testimonials

I have also collated some feedback, comments and testimonials from some of my previous/current students and parents. :) I quote:

" You were their first tutor and my kids really enjoyed your lessons. They have both improved in Math and English significantly. Thank you!" - Evelyn, mother of two kids, aged 9 and 10






"It's been hard as my two girls have only received India education which is different from that of Singapore's. Thank you for being so patient in their English composition and helping them so much in their school work. Without your guidance, they might not make it through Sec 1. " Rami, father of girls aged 13 and 14. 







" My girl has been with you since Primary 4 and she is really comfortable with your teaching. Thanks for helping her in her work." - Mdm Lim, mother of girl aged 12






" Thank you Ms Tan, for helping me improve in my Math and English. I finally passed the end of year exams. " Grace, student aged 11
