Starting with the End in Mind: ‘N’ & ‘O’ Levels English
Our Secondary English Tuition is available for Secondary Levels 1 to 5.
Our tuition programmes rigorously follow the MOE syllabi corresponding to N(A)-Level or O-Level to ensure that our students are well prepared for their level assessments.
Our ultimate aim is to prepare the student for their ‘N’ or ‘O’ Levels. Therefore, all components in ‘N’ and ‘O’ Levels English will be covered.
In addition to the cultural shock, students normally experience an academic shock as they transit from Primary to Secondary School. They are expected to exercise initiative and figure out many things for themselves. Perhaps worse of all, they are expected to apply everything they have learned in Primary School!
From our experience, many students have trouble adjusting to English in Secondary School after leaving Primary School. Comprehension questions need a stronger ability of inference from the student while Writing involves elements of argumentation and critical thought. Secondary School students are also expected to possess a healthy understanding of society and the world!

Education in Singapore
Singapore’s education system has been steadily getting tougher for our children over the years. More content, more homework, more assessment, more competition and less enjoyment are becoming the norm.
In a typical class size of 30-40 in a normal school, the teacher is hard pressed to complete her syllabus, much less pay close attention to the learning of every child.
Every child can do better if only he has someone (a tutor or mentor) to guide him along. With the right guidance, every child can keep up with his school work, do better in his assessment and even rightfully enjoy his learning journey.
The tutor should be a subject matter expert adopting a suitable teaching approach for the child. She should exhibit patience in her teaching with no question from a child ever considered too stupid to answer. These qualities are what iMatter looks for in our handpicked tutors.

While English as a language seems to be the lingua franca, many Singaporean students still continue to struggle to score that elusive A1 for English and hence, turn to O-Level English tuition. However, this comes as no surprise when we consider the demands of the O-Level Examinations.
