How do I pay the fees?

Tuition fees are auto-charged monthly via credit card. The renewal date for payment is every 30 days from the initial registration date.

Fees are fixed monthly regardless of the number of lessons in a month. There are no discounts for taking multiple subjects or siblings’ discounts.

No lessons will be held on public holidays, but learning materials will still be provided.

You can log in to our Parent Portal to cancel your subscription anytime. Fees charged after the renewal date will not be refunded.

Are there make-up classes or Zoom recordings if we miss lessons?

Yes, all our Zoom lessons are recorded and links to recordings will be provided.

If you miss a lesson, you can attend a make-up class within the same weekend (E.g. – If you miss lessons on Friday, make-up on Saturday).

Upon signing up, you can access Zoom recordings of all other classes to facilitate catching up.

If you are unable to attend any of the classes, you can still view the recordings.

Please note that fees will not be prorated.

What is your class size?

We can accept up to 20+ students per class in our online lessons.

Please refer to our Schedule.

Do you have physical classes?
All our lessons are conducted live online via Zoom, as our growing student numbers exceed the capacity of physical classrooms.
What do I need for online Zoom classes?

Please ensure you have a PC, Laptop, Tablet, or Phone with a stable internet connection to attend our lessons.

Kindly prepare your own stationery and foolscap paper for classes.

What if my child is in the IB or IP programme?

All our classes are specially curated and designed according to the GCE ‘O’ level syllabus. Hence, students in the IB or IP programmes may discover that the topics do not perfectly align with their curriculum.

However, you will still be able to learn relevant science concepts, and effective answering techniques for preparations. We also provide comprehensive resources to help your child achieve academic excellence.

How qualified are your teachers?

All our teachers are exceptionally qualified to teach the GCE ‘O’ level syllabus and graduated from prestigious local universities with valuable research experience. Their expertise allows them to teach specific exam-focused answering strategies and offer deeper conceptual insights.
