Updated: Feb 23, 2023

As a parent, you’re probably wondering what are the best options for your child’s tuition.


There are many options for tuition, ranging from online lessons to a physical classroom setting and even home tutoring.


Every student is different, and each option suits different styles of learning and needs.


Below are the options as follows:


#1 - Physical Lessons at Top Tuition Centre


More Attention, More Care, More Hand-Holding - Physical lessons at tuition centres are most helpful for students with lower self-discipline, that benefit from being physically present in a classroom.


Peer learning and peer motivation are present here as well.


At AGrader, the curriculum is specially designed by our team of curriculum writers based on the latest MOE syllabus. With reference to hundreds of reference books and taking the essence of everything, every weekly lesson at AGrader is curated & meticulously planned.


Fees are generally more affordable than private home tuition as well as this is a group lesson.


#2 - Online Tuition


Maximum Convenience - Online lessons offers maximum convenience for parents in the logistics aspect as students are able to tune into high-quality lessons right from home.


Most suitable for students who’re able to revise independently, with higher maturity and discipline levels.


For online lessons at AGrader, students with solid fundamentals benefit more as the syllabus is taught ahead of most schools.


#3 - 1-to-1 Home Tuition


Customised Lessons - Home tuition is the best for students who require more hand-holding and weaker fundamentals.


Students have the flexibility to learn at their own pace, and to revise topics and concepts that they’re falling behind on as they’re usually the only student in the lesson with the tutor.


It’s a great alternative to physical class lessons if your child’s learning style suits home tuition better. Here are some providers of online tuition for primary school in Singapore if you’re looking for an alternative to physical class or online tuition:
