We have years of experience
For the past 15 years, we have been dedicated to offering top-notch education to junior college (JC) students. Our approach to teaching is rooted in a pedagogically sound curriculum, which we have combined with cutting-edge technology and innovative teaching methodologies. This combination allows us to deliver a comprehensive education that prepares our students for the challenges of the modern world.
Our proven approach
Our classes are taught by very experienced tutors and a significant number of our students have gained admission to top universities both locally and internationally, including NUS, NTU, SMU, as well as Ivy League schools like Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, and Yale. Additionally, our alumni have also gone on to attend prestigious universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, and the London School of Economics.
Every student can EXCEL
We are dedicated to helping students reach their full potential through personalised teaching methods. We believe that every student is unique and our methods are tailored to bring out their individual strengths and abilities. This approach has been highly successful, with many of our students being awarded prestigious scholarships, including the President's Scholarship from the Singapore Public Service Commission.
We understand the challenges faced by JC students
Learners’ Lodge has been providing academic support to students for over 15 years. During this time, we have noticed some common issues among the students who seek our help. These issues have given us insight into the challenges that students face in their academic pursuits and by addressing these issues, we have helped many students achieve their full potential.
Strong in concept, weak in application
Many students have difficulties applying concepts in real-world scenarios. To tackle this, we have developed a comprehensive skills program that emphasises the integration of concepts with practical skills such as critical thinking, interdisciplinary application, and out-of-the-box problem solving. This approach helps students perform better in exams, better prepares them for university and the workforce, and instils in them valuable life skills that will benefit them long after they leave the academic setting.
Transitioning from Sec to JC
Many students, particularly those from ‘O’ Levels, struggle with the shift from a passive to a self-directed learning approach in Junior College. To ease this transition, Learners’ Lodge specialises in preparing students for success in A-levels. Our Bridging and Head Start Programmes provide support and guidance to help students adjust to the more demanding JC academic environment and build the skills needed for academic success.
Pace in school
The compressed school schedule, with too little time given to cover the entire curriculum, leads to a packed syllabus and a time crunch for schools. At Learners’ Lodge, lessons are taught slightly behind schedule to allow students to clarify misunderstandings and improve their understanding and exam performance. This approach helps students keep pace with the school curriculum and succeed despite the time crunch.
Inefficient materials
The school materials for students vary from JC to JC, but what has been observed is that the notes from school are often not efficient for learning. They can be too dense or not focused, making it difficult for students to understand the material. At Learners’ Lodge, this challenge has been addressed with the development of a unique set of notes. These notes serve as a revision tool, providing thorough explanations of concepts and ideas, and are complemented by concise summaries for easier organisation and exam preparation. This approach helps students improve their ability to learn and succeed.
Time Crunch
Balancing academics and social life can be a challenge for JC students. The need to attend multiple tuition centres for different subjects can add to the burden. Learners’ Lodge offers a comprehensive solution. We provide a wide range of JC tuition classes covering most examinable subjects, all at conveniently located branches to save students commuting time. By having lessons at Learners’ Lodge, students can focus on their studies and have more time for a fulfilling social life.

Look at what our students said about us!
I remember first coming in to Learners' Lodge failing one math exam after another. Little did I knew, after one year at Learners' Lodge, I managed to go from an S to an A for A-levels! The tutor was always there, constantly encouraging and guiding me along, offering us his tips and tricks that sure proved useful in the end. I hope more students will be able to benefit from his teaching in the future!!
