In Singapore, the competitive fight for a spot in local university lies in doing well in ‘A’ Levels. The battle doesn’t only begin when a student first steps into the exam hall, but from the moment they first enrol in JC. In fact, by the time the ‘A’ Levels roll around, half the battle has already been fought, and the ones who will come up on top are those who have done adequate preparation.
For an increasing group of students, this means enrolling in classes with a reputable tuition centre. Whether you struggle with GP, Physics or Maths, you can bet there’s a JC tuition centre out there that follows the MOE 'A' Levels syllabus closely and can cater to your needs.
With so many JC tuition centres around today, it can be tough selecting the best one to suit your needs. Of course, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer to this; taking into account each student’s individual strengths, weaknesses and learning styles, the best tuition centre for you may look very different from the one your friend attends.
Below are some factors to take into consideration when choosing a JC tuition centre that ticks all your boxes:

1. Mr Lee made me enjoy Physics because he makes the lessons interesting and easy to understand. He would always check with the class to ensure that we understand the concepts and is quick and patient in clarifying my doubts whenever I need help in doing any physics question. He also teaches the class useful methods in solving questions which allows me to solve them easily and quickly. 2. Mr. Quek is a fantastic instructor who does his best to comprehend students' mindsets. He explains esoteric ideas using relatable examples that are simple to comprehend and can be easily understood. He creates practice questions in a variety of formats to assist us to help make us comfortable with the many types of questions that may be asked. In addition to teaching, he also transmits expertise on test techniques so that we may answer questions correctly and quickly. Many thanks, Mr. Quek! 3. I think Mr Quek is a really dedicated and emphatic teacher that goes out of his way to care for our welfare and general well being! He is also really generous in terms of giving us consultations during the holiday breaks, as well as recorded videos for us to catch up on Physics concepts. |

Thank you to Mr Harry Tiew for being such a humorous teacher who makes each Economics lesson interesting for me. I used to think of Economics as just another subject to pass in the A levels but your lessons have made me gain a deep interest in the subject such that I am now even considering to study it in university. Thank you for being a resourceful teacher who teaches beyond the syllabus so that we can understand why we are learning certain concepts. Lastly, thank you for always going out of your way to help us, whenever we text you our questions, you reply us and solve our problems even after tuition hours. I could never have gotten my A without your help. Thank you! Review by Ng Liang Pin Mr Mike Wang has really helped me a lot for my chemistry, guiding me with extra tips and tricks for exams, offering us extra help even outside of class. He was our guiding light through out the stressful period of Alevels and always manages to encourage us through jokes. Dear Mr Mike, you have been a key factor in my improvement, helping me achieve A from an initial E and your tips have allowed me to better manage my time in exams. Thank you so much!!

Mr Neo is a patient teacher and was always willing to help me, answering my queries even late at night. He was very attentive to the fact that I was a slow learner and performed badly before joining his class, finding different ways to make me understand concepts. He was very thorough in his teaching, providing me with questions that challenges me and going through each question to find the root of my mistakes. Mr Neo went the extra mile before the exam to provide a summary page of my mistakes I have frequently made throughout the year. It was very helpful in my revision and it reminded me not to make those mistakes in exam. Thanks to him, I improved my H2 Maths from a U to a B for my A Levels :D Review by Aiyshah After attending the lessons, both my math and english improved by a few grades. Teachers here are very friendly and nice too! Nice environment to study in! Review by Tian Xi |

I entered New Dawn after the Mid Year Examinations (MYE). At that time, my maths was a U grade and I was afraid that I was going to fail my maths at the A levels. Since I joined late, there were chapters that they had gone through and I missed them. But, I am very thankful for Mr Daniel for going out of his way and giving me a mini crash course after classes. The way that Mr Daniel crafted his notes and practices (question types) benefitted me as I could see the similarity in the questions, allowing me to grasp concepts which gave me a headache in the past. In just a short period time (half a year), my maths improved from a U grade to an A grade in A Levels, and I made it to the honour roll in my school. For those students who aren’t scoring well in your school examinations, just continue to press on and join New Dawn! Review by Cassandra I have been a student at New Dawn for three years and throughout my few years here, lessons at New Dawn definitely helped me with improving my grades. Mathematics and Chemistry in JC had never been easy, but attending H2 Math and H2 Chemistry tuition classes at New Dawn certainly helped me clear my numerous doubts and gain a better understanding of the subject’s content. Lessons here are very well-paced and the notes provided are concise and succinct, especially the math summary sheets which summarises the important formulas for every chapter. In addition, the centre provides a conducive learning environment and the study pods/ spaces are one of the highlights as I never ever had to worry about hogging a place in a cafe to study. Thank you, Teacher Joseph and Teacher Daniel for your guidance and I truly appreciate all the help you have given!! Review by Desiree Toh |

Classes were interesting and getting to participate definitely helped. The marking and feedback of work was very helpful and concise.

Mr Irwin's teaching style really suited me and has indeed helped me grasped GP better. As a person who learns through analysing sample essays or answers, Mr Irwin has helped me to gain a better understanding of writing a proper the essay structure, identifying different question types in both essays and SAQs, applying the different answering techniques and also providing adequate resource materials for content preparation. Additionally with the alternation of focusing between paper 1 and paper 2 every 2 weeks, it has helped me to balance my efforts in improving those both components of GP. Review by Lim Ze Yan I love that Mr See never neglects any of the sections in the GP paper. We practise paper 1 for one week, then paper 2 the following week, and the cycle repeats. I find this continuous “cycle” very helpful in helping me to remember the skills required to master GP. Mr See also puts in the extra effort to pick out unique words for us to remember. This is to strengthen our grasp of the English language, and to ensure that we do well for the language component of GP. In class, we are also taught special methods/tips to do well in GP, these tips are not available anywhere else, you can only learn of them from Mr See! Review by Thecla Lim |

Review by Phoebe Tan Path Finder Tution has definitely helped me improve in my sciences which is evident from the change in the quality of my work and i owe it to Path Finder.

Achievers dream is very good at teaching students chemistry. AD teacher’s classes are very fun and engaging and the lessons are enjoyable. Since joining AD, my chemistry grades have improved and i now like the subject more. The summary sheets and notes helps me to consolidate my knowledge and quickly refer whenever I am facing difficulties. Anyone struggling with chemistry should definitely attend achievers dream. Review by Brian Phan the teachers in AD are very engaging and they will make sure that the students understand all the concepts before moving on. AD also gives out cheat sheets that very easy to refer to. my results have improved so much since joining and i can easily answer questions I previously did not get correct. AD teachers teaching methods are not about memory work but they really go in depth about the concept, sometimes giving acronyms to make it easier to understand. AD has allowed me to gain confidence in answering questions during exams! Review by Tiffany Liung Prior to joining Achievers Dream, chemistry has always been a subject which I struggled in performing well for despite putting in great effort into the subject. Decided to enroll in AD and I have the teachers to thank for being so detailed in their coverage of the content, answering techniques and challenging questions. Their passion for the subject is contagious as well! Achievers Dream's specially curated practical lessons also gave me more confidence in my practical skills, and eventually I got a B in my A levels. Thank you AD! Review by Lew Wei Xuan |

Students’ Reviews |
Back in J1, I was hovering around 10th percentile for Economics because I was guilty of using "GP-ish" phrases (which cost me a lot of marks) on top of having a weak foundation. Having joined Zenith just 8 months before the A-Levels, I was able to clarify my doubts through the free consultations with the tutors there as well as had plenty of practice for both the essay and case study components -- which I lacked in school. With the tutor's effective answering techniques, I managed to improve from a U grade for promos to a C grade in prelims and hopefully an A at my A-Levels. Review by Elliot-John Oh I was only in Zenith for my J2 year for a couple of months and it truly did help me tremendously in executing my tests and major school exams. I was really inconsistent in my Economics throughout JC but since joining, it had equipped me with the proper exam skill sets to score my maximum marks in examinations. The teachers are really interactive and impart knowledge to their students in a very interactive manner. Many of them took a further step to personally get to know the students properly so that 1 on 1 feedback can be better conveyed. The dedication the teachers showed at Zenith was like no other, they even extended their weekends and even late nights for both physical and online consults which were something that aided me tremendously during the busy As period.

I joined Ms Leong's physics class from 2021 to 2022, as I had fared badly in my J1 Common Test. I initially found that physics was hard to understand and many questions looked foreign to me. However, Ms Leong teaches in such an efficient way that concepts were easier to visualise and understand, and the notes she provides are concise and easy to revise especially before exams. She emphasises key learning points, common exam questions and common pitfalls, while purposefully collating questions to pinpoint these areas. The amount of practice she gives is also useful for me to reinforce my learning, remember formulas more effectively and increase exposure to questions. Ms Leong genuinely cares for her students and under her guidance, studying Physics was less daunting and I managed to improve drastically in my subsequent exams. Review by Sarah I started joining chem tuition under Miss Chen from mid 2022, in the middle of J2. Ms Chen is a dedicated teacher who is able to point out areas to work on accurately and adjust her teaching method and pace to guide you. She is also very knowledgeable and patient. With Ms Chen's teaching and support, I have improved from straight Us in JC to a B in A Levels Review by Titus Ho |

The tutor for my Math class made sure that each question was explained step-by-step without glossing over any of the concepts required to answer the question. Her explanations were also a lot easier to understand as compared to my aforementioned school lectures. She also made sure that I understand every facet of the concept and is willing to clarify all my doubts before moving on.

5/5 stars well deserved. My chemistry teacher, Mr Yang, is phenomenal at teaching chemistry and helped me pull my grade up to a solid high A in H2 chemistry in a just few weeks and it's only going up. His teaching is easy to understand and remember and he's very knowledgeable about the "meta" of examinations. Review by Shardul Mr Lim has helped solidify my concepts and improved my understanding of chemistry. His lessons have been of great help to my learning and I have seen a big improvement in my chemistry grade over the year Review by Kyaw Naing Htet Miracle Learning Centre was a great experience for me. At first, my Chemistry was terrible and on the verge of failure, and I struggled to cope with my classmates. However, the teachers were very patient with me and gave me pointers and compiled very thorough notes so that I would be able to understand the applications and methods to find the answers. After many months of practice and lessons, I managed to get a 70% on my Midyears. I am very grateful to my teachers for their patience and understanding, and for constantly giving me encouragement, causing me to not give up and to do even better. Miracle Learning Centre really has given me miracles, and has not only improved my score, but has also helped me regain my confidence in Chemistry. Review by Megan Sim |

Achevas' learning methodology has greatly strengthened my fundamental understanding of math concepts especially in topics such as Vectors and Calculus. By dissecting complex formulas into basic core concepts, I can understand and apply. Jack provides concise notes that are great studying material. He is a jovial and encouraging tutor who is akin to a friend. He does not stress us but provides us as much help as he can during the A level period. His interactive and enjoyable lessons are something I look forward to every week. Review by Tong Ping Hui Math was torture until I found Achevas. Jack's explanations were so clear, it was like an evil veil was magically lifted from my eyes so that suddenly I could do math!! He has a precise, systematic answer explanation for how to do everything (except integration techniques, for which the answer was, sadly but truly, "practice"). And if you forget, you can find it on Achevas TV, or just ask Jack again! He was always really approachable and easygoing, and I never dreaded lessons. I highly highly recommend Achevas x10000. I know I wouldn't have survived JC Math without it! Review by Sarah-Kei Lauw |

Mr Gary Ang, is a caring teacher who cares deeply for his students. He actively engages all of us with the use of really cool technology, such as his whiteboard. He teaches consicely and with passion. Review by Naveen Saathappan Mr Ang is a dedicated, down-to-earth, inspiring and patient tutor who helps students to easily assimilate complex mathematical concepts without losing depth, which is essential in order to score for H2 Math. Many who are struggling with H2 Math (like myself) would understand that confidence, coupled with the right amount of the right type of practice are often lacking, which results in undesirable grades. Mr Ang’s lessons effectively tackle these areas of weaknesses, but it doesn’t stop there – he makes a point to instill in every student a solid foundation for each topic (that your school won’t really teach) and relate these mathematical concepts to real-life, which is especially important in the revised 9758 syllabus. The enriching yet entertaining lessons effectively encouraged me to press on and realise that there is nothing that cannot be solved if you really know the principles behind what you’re learning. Thank you Mr Ang for all the help you have rendered in the arduous 2 years of JC! Review by Beatrix |

I studied there from 2015 to 2016. The teachers there really went the extra mile to help their students. I remember a few days prior to the final exam, I would send my tutor, Mr Tham Amath questions at 1am and he still answered omg. Really miss studying there. They really make you want to do well. Review by Mitchelle Lee My lessons with Mr Ang was a short yet memorable one. During lessons, he would explain concepts such that all his students understand it fully and when someone is lost, he wouldn’t mind explaining it all over again. Additionally, he gives additional practices to master our concepts such that we know our content inside out. With all these help that I’ve received from him, I managed to jump from a b4 at MYEs to an a1 at prelims, which is something that wouldn’t have been possible without his concise teaching. His tips and tricks made learning science more enjoyable and I now walk into the exam hall with full confidence. So to anyone out there who’s looking for a tutor who explains concepts clearly in a simplified manner, Mr Ang is the one! Thank you Mr Ang, without your guidance I wouldn’t have made such a huge progress in a matter of months Review by Wei Ping Tee |

Mr Sim’s popular physics notes are concise and comprehensive. He never fails to break down a chapter into different key concepts and ideas, making it easier for us to understand. Even a particularly difficult chapter will seem manageable and much less intimidating. He would even classify questions into different types where you would use the same type of calculations for. This simplifies things and makes it easier to tackle questions in an exam. I particularly like his idea of using a “SOP” to solve physics questions. Review by Soo Lin Mr Sim, I would definitely recommend my friends to join the physics cafe. The Physics Cafe made me interested in physics again due to Mr Sim’s enthusiastic and clear teaching. Finally physics made sense. The lecture notes are also very useful as they are not just summarized but include tough questions that might potentially come up for school exams and ultimately A levels. At the same time, the occasional small tests motivated me and trained me to be more calm and focused in exams. A skill which I felt was of utmost importance in exams. Ultimately I felt that the physics cafe really helped me a lot in my learning of physics. Review by Nicholas Sim |

Mr Calvin Kong is a friendly and humorous teacher who is able to make Physics an enjoyable subject. During lessons, he tries to ensure that everyone is able to keep up with him, so that no one feels lost. For the blander aspects of Physics, he spices them up with links to our daily lives. And for some of the tougher chapters, he goes through them in greater detail with many helpful drawings. I have had fun learning under him. Review by Gabirel Goh The class is always engaging and Mr Kong is extremely approachable. That makes it easier to ask questions if we have any so that we don’t go home feeling confused. The lesson materials given are very helpful as it contains the summarised content and important points. They are only 2 pages long per chapter, making it easier to read and revise compared to school notes that come in thick stacks with many words.

Mr Quek broke difficult concepts down into easily remembered chunks and taught us to write organized and clear essays that hits all the right notes with the Cambridge examiners. He would always ensure that we were following his lessons and adjust his pace accordingly so that we do not fall behind. Even during the Circuit Breaker period, his lessons were just as effective and over time I understood the key to writing proper Economics essays. From an E grade in JC1 Promos, I clinched an A in the 2020 A Levels under his tutelage.

Review by Cedric Koh Ms Foo makes her econs lessons very engaging and is really willing to clarify all our doubts. During lesson she would make the effort to ensure that we all understand the concepts being taught and also patiently explain to us if we don’t understand.

Economics was my worst subject in JC1 and even till the mid of JC2. I got constant “U”s for Econs until i came to iEconomics. Ms Ang helped me figure out where i was going wrong and imparted useful skills to help me understand important concepts. I’m proud to say that with the help of iEconomics, I improved from a “U” to a “B” in Prelims within 5 months, and finally achieved an “A” grade in the A LevelsiEconomics is really a life-changer for students struggling in Economics! Review by Yamuna Prior to joining iEconomics, I was struggling with this profound subject. Luckily I joined iEconomics and I experienced a 5-grade jump in only 3 months! Thanks to Ms Ang, who enthusiastically and patiently helped me out with Economics! The notes provided are easy to understand and straight to the point which were extremely effective in helping students score well for the subject. I highly recommend iEconomics to all students! Review by Ang Wenqi Ms Ang from iEconomics is a very dedicated and experienced tutor who will ensure that every student builds a strong Economics foundation in a short period of time. With the succinct and reliable notes, iEconomics effectively helps students work at their full potential to achieve top grades for Economics.

Effective tuition centre that has hardworking teachers that clearly care very much for their students. The notes my tutor provided were essential in my learning and he paced our lessons well since the day I joined his class before I entered school. I was able to understand concepts far quicker in my school classes from the tuition here as well. Highly recommend coming here for any subjects. Review by Kai Seeked Economics HL tutoring, got 7 and A for Economics EE. Sean (my tutor) was very patient and understanding, and clarified any questions I had. Outside of lesson time, he was very responsive to the many questions I would ask. Thank you Sean and Quintessential! Review by Aden Low Tuition here was really great. My tutor was friendly and easy to converse with, really took the time to ensure i understood and could grasp the topic at hand. The environment is also very sleek and not too distracting and the session was one of the best tuition sessions I’ve had with any tuition centre. Review by Ivette Chiew |
With a variety of options available today, it’s important to know what to look out for in a top JC tuition centre. To make the best decision, you will first have to understand your unique needs, such as your areas of weakness and the subjects you require more help with, whether that's Chemistry, Maths or Economics. If you have a particularly busy schedule, you may even be considering online tuition, or a tutor who can come to your home at your convenience.
For parents, cost is another thing to factor in: you will want to make sure that your money is well-spent, which is typically measured by the improvement in your child’s grades.
It comes as no surprise that an increasing number of tuition centres have popped up in Singapore over the years. With the competition to snag a place in local universities, you will want to give yourself as strong an edge as possible. Tuition can give you just that, encompassing:
