Having difficulties with your modules?
Most university students encounter difficulties when they first begin their courses due to the new challenges and environment posed to them. You are expected to have greater sense of independence and initiative in doing research work, writing dissertations, presenting to large groups of classmates etc. There is no more spoonfeeding given anymore by teachers in primary or secondary schools.
At the tertiary level, students have to learn quickly and adapt the the fast pace and ever-changing pressures on them by their lecturers and peers. To overcome this, many students falter at the first hurdle and fail their foundation modules, and will find it hard to recover at a later stage.
The average hourly fees for University tuition ranges from $60 per hour to $150 per hour, depending on the tutor's credentials, experience and the level to teach. Lecturers include associate or full professors in local universities and teachers in private institutions.

I was looking for a Maths tutor in May this year for my daughter who was in Sec 2. She has been failing her Maths since Sec 1 and is really in need of help.
My preference is someone who stays in the same neighbourhood for ease of travel and of course, good in Maths.
Davis is quick to respond and recommended Ms Celine. Thank you Davis for connecting us. Ms Celine has done a great job with her teaching methods. My daughter scored an A2 for the final year exam which is a vast improvement. Ms Celine, you are a gem!
Here’s a review from the tutee for her tutor:
She went through all the chapters in the textbooks and taught me whatever concepts I did not understand. She also focused more on my weaker topics until she felt that I mastered them.
When she finished all the chapters and I had mastered them, we only did practice papers until exams came. She also provided extra tuition near the exam days. Overall, she has really helped me improved and she is not strict and working with her was fun :)
Tutor city a great platform to find the right tutor for your child as they help to provide the one that fits your child’s schedule and your budget. I truly appreciate benson’s quick responses to all the queries and arranging the right tutor for my son. Thank you Benson! You are doing a great job!!
I reached out to Tutor City for a tutor which has experience with teaching English to dyslexic kids. A few promising profiles of tutors were sent and I choose one. The outcome was a good one. The tutor was experienced and knew how to handle the challenges. Within a month I could see marked improvements in certain areas.
I am impressed with the snappy service and profiles sent over. And the eventual positive outcome of the tutor I choose for my kid.
Great support with the search for the tutors for A Level exams. Daughter enjoys her lessons and we started to see the results from the first week.
