Are you looking for a teaching career that supports your learning and growth, compensates well and has meaningful impact all at the same time?

Over the past 8 years, we have helped over 10,000 students ace their Science examinations using our proprietary learning methodology and examination-centric materials.

We are known among parents to be knowledgeable, humorous and caring teachers, and students leave our classes with a genuine appreciation for Science.

1. Class & Learning Management – You will manage classes effectively with a holistic understanding of your students’ learning needs and motivations

2. Lesson Preparation & Delivery – You’ll prepare for your lessons in accordance to our curriculum. In particular, you’ll devise ways to simplify Science concepts and highlight common misconceptions.

3. Publishing – You’ll share your knowledge by writing articles and producing videos, so that your students can continue to learn from you outside of the classroom.

4. Communication – You’ll communicate with parents on their children’s learning progress and make appropriate recommendations on how to improve further.
