Maths tuition
Maths is one of the most challenging subjects that students would face, especially during primary and secondary school level. Maths is also one of the most important subjects for GCE 'O' level for many courses in polytechnic require at least a pass for it. Therefore, maths tuition is one of the most common tuition in Singapore.
English tuition
Since English is the main language in Singapore, almost all the subjects are based on English, hence, the importance to have a great command of the language. English is also a subject by itself, which is tested in PSLE, 'O' level and 'A' level (known as GP or General Paper).
Chinese tuition
Chinese language (Chinese Singaporeans' mother tongue) is one of the most interesting but toughest languages to pick up. As more Singaporeans are English educated, the lack of communication through Chinese language is causing the ineptness. Chinese language is a subject by itself that will affect your child's overall grades.
