We understand that each child has a different aptitude for a subject. Since each child responds to different teaching methods and paces differently, we believe in personalised attention.

The purpose is to provide the most efficient environment for quiet and concentrated learning, guided by our most sincere tutors, without any ordinary distractions (vis-à-vis socializing and social networking).

To this end, we allot tutors to students. Managers, in turn, supervise the tutors during class hours. At every level we take conscious care, in real-time and after-classes, to assess the effectiveness of the teaching methods.

Tutors will be shuffled and teaching methods revised, to adapt to the needs of individual students. No need or doubt of any student will go unaddressed.

All our teachers go through rigorous training for a period of three to six months before beginning their tutoring at USOL.

Following the initial months of training, they continue to receive training, concurrent with their tutoring lessons.

Furthermore, an additional supervisor, an expert in the subject at hand, manages every group of eight full-time teachers.

Our teachers possess both expertise in the fields that they teach, as well as invaluable experience teaching those subjects. We assure our students the very best.

3. What syllabi do you cater to?

We have students from UWC, OFS, SAS, Tanglin, CIS, Chatsworth, AIS, GIIS, DPS, NPS, Raffles, ACW, Hwa Chong and several other local schools.

The Syllabi that we are catering to:

Of course, yes! We always work with a team of teachers for a child, instead of a fixed teacher. We believe that this system of teaching offers several advantages:

1) Each tutor has a distinct forte and a specialization.
For every topic you learn, we will ensure you are tutored by the very best in that scope of learning.

2) This system allows different teachers with distinct perspectives to evaluate each student.
This gives us a more nuanced understanding of a student’s learning ability and progress. The team of full-time teachers can then cohesively draw a game plan to collectively address a child’s needs.

3) The tutors each strive to perform to the best of their ability. 
Our tutors don’t like to be outdone by tutors elsewhere. Nor do they like to be outdone by other tutors within the organization! This helps both students and teachers stay on top of their game, availing every opportunity to show off their skills!

We operate a very transparent and friendly environment. Should a change of teacher be required, a student only needs to raise his hand. A supervisor will immediately come to the student’s avail and provide an alternate tutor.

Every tutor recognizes that the tutor-tutee relationship operates on an intangible chemistry that may very well vary from student to student. No tutor takes it personally if a change is asked for.

The student should feel free to request a change whenever it is desired. There will be no questions asked.

Our tutors are trained, not only to teach theory and learning material, but also to inspire interest within a child for the subject at hand. We aspire, not only to improve grades and examination scores, but also to evoke a sense of commitment for a subject, born out of his her sheer curiosity.

We ardently believe that fun learning is effective learning. Refer to Public Speaking for more on what we do. 

We currently provide online teaching for students residing in the following countries – The United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, America and Canada. If you are a resident of any other country, please email us with your requirements and we will gladly respond to your requests at the earliest.

Yes, we conduct tests regularly. There are three kinds of tests: 

• 15-20 minutes test during every session.
• A test on a particular topic before the school quiz or test.
• Two compulsory semester exams will be conducted in the month of March and November. Refer to Essential Academic Tests.
