Welcome To The Best In Singapore - Home Tuition Division
Hello 🙂 I am Amelia Lee, PhD – Princeton University, Materials Science Engineering.
I am one of the co-founders of The Best In Singapore, and I lead our Education Division comprising over 31,000 of Singapore’s most qualified and experienced home tutors.
Since 2012, we have established a strong track record of helping our students achieve better grades. You have probably heard about us from your school teachers, classmates, relatives or colleagues.
Getting into a good school and maintaining good grades is important for anyone who wants to do well in their chosen career – whether you plan to eventually work in Singapore, Asia, Europe or the United States.
Exams now require students to be able to remember large chunks of information, analyze complicated scenarios and then come up with appropriate answers.
The easier part of all these important tasks is probably the memorization of content from your textbooks. It certainly is more challenging to be able to correctly develop your higher-order thinking skills. Once you can do this, you will then need to apply the analyses are required by the increasingly difficult exam questions. Your school teachers are very good, but they are sometimes too busy to answer every question that you have.
In order to consistently achieve higher grades, you need appropriate guidance from exceptional home tutors who:
- Have proven track records of guiding their students to better understand and apply the complex information
- Help you avoid careless mistakes
- Can identify what the exam questions really want you to do
- Are are able to give you valuable strategies to answer difficult exam questions
Choose tutors with proven track records today, so that your grades will improve in time for the coming major exams.

Good Reviews By Parents & Students
Comments and feedback of the results of hiring professional home tutors from The Best In Singapore
I prefer to go to JC and then to an overseas university. I know how competitive it is to get into a good JC and then a good uni, so I started preparing with Mr Ho and Madam Eng (both from The Best In Singapore) from Sec 2. I am comfortable with the both of them because both of them have Master's degrees in the subjects they are teaching me, and they each have over 10 years of full time tutoring experience.
Andy Tan
Presbyterian High School
The tutor we hired when I was in Sec 3 was not able to help my grades improve by much, even though I worked hard. My dad's colleague suggested that we contact The Best In Singapore because both the tutors that he hired for his daughter were very responsible. We found Ms Chong, who is an ex-MOE teacher. She is really so much better than my previous tutor. Always punctual, teaches me relevant stuff, and gives me the correct types of practices that helped my grades go up.
Nicholas Shen
Christ Church Secondary School
Two years ago, my brother took his O Levels and he felt that he should have prepared harder. His grades were good, compared to my Sec 3 results, so I got really stressed. We found Ms Ng from The Best In Singapore. She is very patient and committed to helping me. I like how she is friendly and strict about how I should get things right in my answers.
Fathima Shafiya
St Margaret’s Secondary School
My parents and I are not sure if I should go to JC or poly. Whatever it is, I would of course need to have better grades than what I scored in Sec 2. I started tuition with Mr Gan from The Best In Singapore in the early part of Sec 3 and am glad that I did because the syllabus got quite difficult around the middle of Sec 3.

“The Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education Ordinary Level (GCE O-Level) examination is an annual national examination that is taken by school and private candidates in Singapore.
The Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education Ordinary Level (GCE O-Level) examination was introduced in 1971. It was delinked from the United Kingdom’s GCE O-Level examination in 2006, as part of the Ministry of Education Singapore’s efforts to gain greater control of the management of the examination. The GCE O-Level examination is closely aligned to the Singapore school curriculum that is designed by the MOE.
The GCE O-Level examination is offered annually to:
- Students from mainstream schools who are taking a Secondary Four Express course or a Secondary Five Normal (Academic) course.
- Private candidates who have met the eligibility criteria to register for the GCE O-Level examination.
The Singapore Examinations and Assessment Board, MOE and Cambridge Assessment International Education are the joint examining authorities for the GCE O-Level examination.
Mother Tongue Language (MTL) Syllabus B
The MTL Syllabus B subject is not a GCE O-Level subject, and the grade will not be included in the computation of the candidate’s GCE O-Level aggregate score. Candidates who pass the MTL Syllabus B subject will be deemed to have fulfilled the MTL subject requirement for admission to junior colleges.
The grade awarded for a respective MTL Syllabus B subject will be indicated as Merit, Pass or Ungraded on the candidate’s result slip and certificate.
O-Level School Initiated Electives (OSIE)
The MOE introduced greater flexibility in the curriculum by giving secondary schools the option to offer OSIE to build up their niche areas in 2005.
OSIE subjects are taken in addition to, or as replacements of, current curriculum offerings by the MOE. They are examinable and the grades can be used in the computation of the GCE O-Level aggregate scores for admission to the junior colleges, centralised institutes and polytechnics.
School candidates can register for the examinations for the OSIE subjects that have been approved by the MOE Curriculum Planning and Development Division (CPDD) through their schools.
Applied Subjects
Applied Subjects are developed by the polytechnics in partnership with the secondary schools to better cater to the interests and aspirations of students who are keen to progress along an applied and practice-oriented path of education since 2008.
They are examinable by the polytechnics and the grades can be used in the computation of the GCE O-Level aggregate scores for admission to the junior colleges, centralised institutes and polytechnics.
School candidates can register for the examinations for the Applied Subjects that have been approved by the MOE CPDD through their schools.”

For the most current and more comprehensive information, please refer to the NUS website.

General Paper (GP) or Knowledge Inquiry (KI)
Either General Paper (GP) or Knowledge Inquiry (KI) subject taken in the same sitting with the H2/’A’ Level content-based subjects.

Admission to NUS is based upon open competition amongst applicants. Potential applicants may refer to the Indicative Grade Profiles (IGP) and course places of the previous academic year to make more informed choices when applying for admission.
* Please note that H1 Mother-Tongue Language (MTL) subject cannot be considered in-lieu of a H1 content-based subject.

“APTITUDE-BASED ADMISSIONS: WHAT SMU LOOKS FOR
At SMU, we are committed to a holistic and aptitude-based admissions approach, where we look for students who have not only been successful academically but who possess qualities that we value. In addition to academic grades, we will look for evidence of these qualities such as aptitude, positive attitude, intellectual curiosity, critical thinking and communication skills, as demonstrated through leadership in co-curricular activities; impactful involvement in community service and volunteer programmes; significant awards and achievements in areas relevant to the course applied for; noteworthy involvement in work/internships relevant to the course applied for; as well as other relevant factors.
We seek to identify students who are different, who may be mavericks in their own ways, with qualities of resilience and innovation, and who will inspire their peers and professors during their SMU years and beyond.
QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
Aptitude and Attitude
- Do you push yourself out of your comfort zone and embrace new experiences in life?
- Do you enjoy doing things that are different and meaningful?
- What is your motivation in life?
- How would you challenge yourself to do well in your university life?
- Are you a self-starter? How have you tried to create meaningful change to your community?
- How have you contributed to your community to make it a better place?
Intellectual Curiosity and Promise
- How committed and interested are you in expanding your intellectual boundaries?
- What excites you intellectually?
- Do you actively seek opportunities that expand your perspective in creating new knowledge?
- How open are you to new ideas and people?
- How often have you challenged your current set of knowledge paradigm?
Communication and interpersonal abilities
- What kinds of conversations excite you?
- Do you enjoy asking questions and listening to others actively?
- Do you enjoy expressing your viewpoints while accepting different perspectives from others?
We aim to put together a cohort of bright undergraduates with diverse interests and talents. We would like every student to benefit from SMU’s education of the whole person through our broad-based curriculum and interactive pedagogy, coupled with depth in one or two areas of study, and complemented by an unparalleled co-curriculum involving our:
- Core Curriculum

Computation of University Score
In computing the University Score, the University will take into consideration the following:
- General Paper (GP) or Knowledge & Inquiry (KI)
- Project Work
- Best four content-based subjects (i.e. 3 H2 and 1 H1 content-based subjects, of which one must be a contrasting subject. Students may take KI in lieu of GP. KI is considered a H2 subject and can be considered as a contrasting subject to both Arts and Science. Students who take KI need not take a H1 content-based subject.
A H1 subject will be counted as half of a H2 in terms of points computation.
MTL may be included in the computation of the University Score. The better of the two scores (i.e. with and without MTL) will be the University Score of the candidate.
SAT is not required for applicants presenting A-level certificates.
Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not indicate that the applicant can be admitted as admission to the University is based on open competition.
H3 programmes will not be considered in the computation of the University Score.
Combined Score
Some programmes require additional assessment such as selection test, interview, or portfolios on top of academic results.
Aptitude-based Admissions (ABA)
Aptitude-based Admissions (ABA) take into account students’ passions, interests and strengths. Applicants with exceptional talents and/or outstanding achievements beyond schools’ co-curricular activities can be considered, subject to a minimum level of academic competence, for admissions under ABA.
