Tuition centre fees in Singapore

The boring bit

What's in it

Tuition centres in Singapore with their own premises and a fee page on their own website. Private tutors, tuition agencies, online-only programmes, holiday and crash courses, and enrichment such as abacus are left out. We found 315 names: 110 tuition centre websites read in full, 180 more scanned automatically, and 25 centres on the map with no website of their own. 39 centres publish a regular fee we could rank. This is a count of published fees, not a survey of every centre: many centres ask parents to call or message for fees (45 of the websites we read publish no regular fee), so the ladders lean towards centres that publish.

Comparable enough

Every ladder compares 4 weekly lessons of one subject in a group class at the centre, at the weekday rate. Where a centre prices per lesson, we multiplied by 4; where it sells only by the term, we divided by the centre's own lesson count and multiplied by 4; a monthly fee is used as published (most centres count a month as 4 lessons, and some charge for a fifth). Each centre is ranked at its cheapest class in a core subject: English, math, a science or a mother tongue, and at JC also General Paper and economics. Lessons last 1.5 to 2 hours, so the per-hour table shows what that does to the order. GST: fees stated with GST are used as shown; fees stated before GST have 9% added by us; fees that don't mention GST are used as published and say so in the small print.

What isn't compared, and why

Online classes, private one-to-one lessons, holiday programmes, crash courses, trials, bundles, multi-subject discounts and weekend rates are not ranked: they're either a different service or not what a regular student pays for one subject. Humanities, IP-only and IB classes aren't ranked either. Registration fees, deposits and material fees are shown in their own table, never added to a ladder.

Fees we read but didn't rank

Where the prices come from

Every fee is from the centre's own website, read on 26 Sep 2026 by our own headless browser, which saves a text copy and a screenshot of each page. Fees shown only as images (Curious Thoughts Academy, Sophia Education) were read from the images on the centre's own site; fees in folded sections of a page (The Learning Lab, Inspire Education Centre) were read from the page's own code. Every fee was read in the same week as publishing, so the separate re-read on the day of publishing was not done. No fee comes from a guide, a directory, a marketplace or a message from a centre.

When we stopped

We built the list from area-by-area map searches and tuition guides (used only to find names and websites), then read each centre's fee page. 180 further websites were scanned automatically, up to 60 pages each: none showed a fee table, so they weren't read in full (47 of them returned no page to the scan at all, usually because their content loads by script). Discovery ran in batches; we stopped once every ladder was well past the 8 to 10 centres we need to publish, and every name we didn't read is listed below, so the comparison can be extended.

Independence and corrections

No centre paid to be included or ranked, and none was contacted; we earn nothing if you sign up. Corrections are logged publicly with a date. Spotted a wrong fee, or publish yours and aren't here? Report an error.
