Frequently Asked Questions
How do you select your English tutors?
We have a stringent selection process. Our English tutors are typically MOE-trained teachers, full-time tutors with years of experience, or top university graduates. We verify their academic qualifications and tutoring experience to ensure they can deliver results based on the latest MOE syllabus.
How quickly can we start the first lesson?
Our matching service is fast and efficient. After you submit a request, we typically find a suitable and qualified English tutor for you to review within 6 hours. The first lesson can often be arranged within a few days, depending on your and the tutor's availability.
What are the typical rates for English tuition?
Rates depend on the tutor's qualifications and the student's level. Primary tuition runs $25 to $80 an hour and JC $50 to $120, which is our published rate card rather than a quote — we confirm the exact rate with you before you commit.
Is there a trial lesson?
While we don't offer free trial lessons, you are not locked into any long-term contract. You can decide whether to continue with the tutor after the first paid lesson. Our goal is to ensure a perfect match, and we can rematch you if you're not satisfied.
