Why choose us?
We believe in quality, we demand quality, we promise quality.
Anyone can claim to be the best tutor, but not everyone can deliver. All our teachers underwent a series of stringent tests and verification of their capabilities before qualifying for a position at our centers. Even after being selected, they will still be constantly reviewed for their performance to ensure our promise to our customers are met.
Engaging lessons
At Learners’ Lodge, we believe that while students ought to have the personal responsibility to be interested in learning, the onus is ultimately on the tutors’ to make each and every lesson engaging and interesting. To that end, our tutors endeavor to make all the content, as well as the thinking and application skills that are taught in class relevant to our students.
Customised for different schools
Given that JCs have the autonomy to sequence the teaching of the syllabus, different schools have thus far adopted different approaches based on their respective pedagogical beliefs. At Learners’ Lodge, we have tailor-made programs that cater to the students from different JCs. This is aimed at helping our tuition students learn in a manner that is in line with their schools’ sequencing of the syllabus, thus helping to improve the learning outcome as well as school exam performance.
Clear explanations
One of the key strengths of our tutors is the ability to explain abstract and complicated concepts in a clear and simple manner while retaining the depth of understanding for students. But hey, don’t take word for it, see what our former students have said about our tutors at the Testimonials section.
Useful Notes
We understand that for the learning process to be effective, students need to constantly review what they have learnt. To facilitate this, we have developed a unique set of notes that isn’t simply a summary of ideas but rather a tool for revision that is thorough in its explanation of concepts and ideas. This set of notes is complemented by concise and effective summaries for easy organisation of ideas as well as exam preparation.
Emphasis on thinking and writing skills
Here at Learners’ Lodge, we have developed a very strong skills program where both thinking skills and writing skills are taught explicitly and built up consistently throughout the year. These skills not only help our students perform better in exams but continue to empower them when they enter university and eventually the workforce.
Positive learning environment
Students are often afraid to ask questions in class for fear of appearing incompetent if they asked “stupid questions”. At Learners’ Lodge, we believe that asking questions is the best way for students to clarify their doubts and deepen their understanding. Our tutors foster a very positive environment where students are constantly encouraged to ask questions, both in class as well as after class. As educators, we don’t believe that there are stupid questions.
Holistic development
At Learners’ Lodge, our tutors firmly believe in the holistic education of a person. Apart from our effective teaching of the content material and skills, we believe in developing both the overall intellectual aspect of the student as well the affective aspect. Character development, leadership and values are an integral part of our lessons.
Qualified and Experienced tutors
All our tutors at Learners’ Lodge are fully qualified. They are all graduates from reputable local and overseas universities with many years of actual full-time teaching experience at various JCs, preparing many batches of students for the A level exams. Our tutors are highly specialised and they teach JC level exclusively, giving them the time to focus on developing their materials as well as their pedagogical approach over the years.
Great track record
About 80% of our students attained an A grade in the A level exam, and over 90% getting at least a B grade. No tuition centre and/or respectable educator will guarantee a distinction, since getting an A grade is also very much dependent on their students’ efforts (not their abilities). The tutors, however, firmly believe in helping every student reach their goal. We didn’t get to these statistics simply by being good at what we do; we got here by striving every single year to teach better, and to help our students do better. We will continue in this direction.
