ENGLISH 100
MATH 100 
SCIENCE 100 
CHINESE  100 

ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL

Every child is unique. 

  • A big tuition group caters to the majority's problems. 
  • Every child has his or her own pace. 
  • A standard curriculum may not be maximising your child's learning potential. 
  • Sometimes, it takes a child a longer duration and at some other times, a shorter duration grasping certain specific concepts. 
  • A standard curriculum that benefits the majority may mean that the child may not have the the opportunity to truly appreciate and connect with the subject matter. 
  • A standard class pace in a big tuition group means the child either keeps up or falls behind. 
  • The child's real problems may be overlooked and thus not addressed in a big tuition group. 

    PRIMARY AND SECONDARY MATH, ENGLISH, SCIENCE & CHINESE TUITION CLASSES : COMMON PROBLEMS OVERLOOKED

    PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT
    More often than not, parents are not aware of what goes on in the tuition classses. They are not kept updated on the progress of the child in the tuition class. More so, insights that the tuition teacher has learned about the child are not shared on a regular basis.

    LACK OF CUSTOMISATION
    Lesson plans are structured to cater to the majority in the whole class. Thus, lesson plans in the tuition classes are not efficient at delivering the intended results for each individual student.

    CLASS PACE
    The learning pace of each child is different whereas the speed of teaching in most other tuition centres is uniform. Several gaps in learning may accumulate and may have been overlooked.

    ATTENTION
    Most tuition classes severely lack in individualised attention as they are too big. It is difficult for the tuition teachers to be able to cater to each individual student. The individual student’s unique strengths and weaknesses are not identified and often the wrong problems are addressed instead of the student’s actual problems.

    WHY KIP MCGRATH TUITION KOVAN IS THE BEST TUITION CENTRE IN KOVAN

     

    SMALL GROUP
    Each class has a maximum of 5 students per group and no more. This is in stark contrast with other centres that try to fit as many as 20 students per group.

    GREAT TRACK RECORD
    Having been around in Singapore for more than 10 years, our proven teaching methods have helped tens of thousands of students throughout Singapore gain confidence and make leaps in their respective subjects. 



    BEST LEARNING MATERIALS
    Our large network across more than 20 centres in Singapore and 10 years of experience means we have accumulated and perfected the techniques and resources that is required so that your child may improve.

    TAILORED LEARNING PROGRAM
    Our tuition teacher will devise a structured learning plan for each of the students.



    NO PRESSURE TO CONFORM TO CLASS PACE
    This is of utmost importance to the students who already have enough pressure to catch up in school.  The students at Kip McGrath Tuition Centres Kovan are encouraged to ask questions as and when needed. There is no "class pace" that the child is required to catch up with. 



    REGULAR UPDATES
    Our tuition teachers are constantly in touch with parents to ensure that parents are kept up to date with the progress of the child. 

    INDIVIDUALISED ATTENTION
    Our tuition classes are not the typical teacher at the front teaching or lecturing a whole class system. In fact, each student in the tuition class will be doing his own work according to his own structured lesson plan. 



    PROVEN TEACHING METHOD
    We continually assess, diagnose and implement customised tuition lesson structures so as to bring out the best in each student. 



    QUALITY TUITION TEACHERS
    All our tuition teachers have been thoroughly screened and trained to implement the proven Kip McGrath methodology.

    WHAT STUDENTS & PARENTS HAVE TO SAY

    As a student who has been under Kip McGrath for more than three years, I have to admit that I have benefited greatly from the teachers here, especially Mrs Yeo. A dedicated teacher, Mrs Yeo has helped me solve countless Mathematics questions to work on so that I can practice on my weaker aspects of Math. Not only Mrs Yeo, but the rest of the other teachers here are also zealous about teaching and they are often seen fervently explaining solutions of problems to students. Mrs Yeo has not only helped me attain an A* in Mathematics, but has also let me gain confidence in that subject, which results in my deep passion and interest in it. Mrs Yeo, thank you for your guidance, it will go a long way!  ”
