What can you expect after requesting for a home tutor?

 

We will provide you with detailed tutor profiles including information such as their academic qualifications, subject specializations, teaching experience, communication styles, their availability and hourly charge rates.

 

As you browse through the tutor profiles, you may raise further requests for information and communicate any concerns, requests for practice materials etc. You may also request to speak to the tutor over a call to assess their suitability for your child. Thereafter, we can confirm a start date and proceed further or keep looking. 

 

What Are The Types of Tutors Available?

 

We have 3 main types of tutors available, Part-Time Tutors, Full-Time Tutors and Ex/Current MOE Teachers.

 

  1. Undergraduates - These are tutors who are tutoring part time and have not attained a degree or diploma yet. These tutors are often the most affordable option, but may have less available time slots and may not be able to commit for extended periods of time.

 

  1. Graduate/Full Time Tutors - Tutors who have graduated and who are mostly tutoring full time as their occupation, as private tutors or at other learning insitututes. These are tutors who will have much more years of experience, but the rates and qualifications of each full time tutor may differ greatly from individual to individual

 

  1. MOE-Trained/Current School Teachers - These are tutors who have taught officially in government schools or international schools. They will tend to command higher rates but have the most amount of resources and will be familiar with the latest syllabus and pedagogy.

 

Do note that our platform does not control the rates for each tutor. Each tutor quotes their own rates based on their own qualifications, experience level and the accessibility of the tutoring location. However, our company will try to send you profiles which fall within your indicated hourly budget.
