Here in Singapore, many parents send their children for either Private Home Tuition or Group Tuition in a Tuition Centre. There are a few factors to consider when deciding on the right type of tuition to send your child to, such as the location of the class as well as the class size. Tutor Circle recommends that you opt for tuition classes with small class sizes, as this allows your child to have ample attention from the Biology Tutor. Moreover, many students are more comfortable clarifying their doubts in a small class size. The location of the class is also important, as it should be in an accessible location for greater convenience. Here at Tutor Circle, we specialise in providing 1-to-1 Private Home Tution that is held in the safety and convenience of students' homes!
Biology is undoubtedly a difficult and challenging subject for most students, and most students find themselves struggling with understanding and memorising the large amounts of content, as well as to learn how to apply the content into application questions during examinations. Moreover, many of the concepts require strong understanding and visualisation, which might be tough for many. As such, Tutor Circle strongly recommends engaging a Biology Tutor to guide students in their mastery of the subject. With a Biology Tutor, they will be able to guide students in understanding the concepts, as well as to clear any misconceptions as and when they arise.

While selecting a suitable Biology Tutor, it is important to check if they are well-familiar with the current MOE Biology syllabus.

Furthermore, different levels of education such as H1 and H2 Biology during JC will have different numbers of content and topics included. Do make sure that the tutor understands what can be tested from the different H1 and H2 levels of Biology before choosing him/her as your tutor. When providing recommendations to you, we will list out the teaching experiences of our Tutor Circle tutors so that you may judge their familiarity with the syllabus.
3. Experience in Teaching Students Of Similar Levels
When selecting a Biology Tutor, it is important to ensure that the tutor has been or is currently teaching students of the same level, or can prove his/her competency in teaching students of that level. After all, you would definitely not want to engage a Biology Tutor with only experience in teaching Secondary Biology when the student is in Junior College.

Here at Tutor Circle, we make it a point to only recommend tutors who have taught or are currently teaching students of the same level.

5. Devoted Focus & Guidance
It is important that the Biology Tutor you have chosen will put in his/her best to guide and teach your child. Only with such devotion and commitment will he/she be able to understand your child better and follow through with your child's learning progress. Make sure to check if the tutor is able to commit to the arranged time slot and better still, is willing to continue teaching your child from early education levels to higher education levels. With more time spent together between the tutor and the student, the tutor can then better understand the weaknesses of the student when understanding Biology concepts and cater lessons based on the student's needs. Here at Tutor Circle, upon recommending Biology Tutors, we will also help to facilitate communication between you and the tutor to make sure that both parties have an agreement and a common understanding of expectations before confirming the tuition arrangements.
