Primary 1 Math Home Tuition Rates FAQs
What is the difference between the type of Primary 1 Math tutors available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time Primary 1 Math Tutors – refers to private tutors who are doing it part-time. Most of the tutors here are still schooling: A-level graduates, Diploma students/graduates, or Undergraduates. To a lesser extent, there are also University graduates and working professionals offering tuition part-time and they fall under this category. Part-time tutors are the cheapest option for home tuition in Singapore.
– Full-Time Primary 1 Math Tutors – refers to full-time private tutors who teach as a profession. Full-time tutors may/may not be university graduates but often have significantly more teaching experiences than part-time tutors as they tutor lots of students 1-to-1 as well as take up jobs in tuition centres teaching groups of students in classes.The actual qualifications and experience of a full-time tutor can vastly differ between individuals, hence so does the tuition rate they command.
– Primary 1 Math School Teachers – refers to ex/current school teachers either from MOE or from private and international schools. Tutors under this category tend to be the most experienced and qualified in private tutoring and thus command the highest tuition rates. Be prepared to pay a premium in order to engage these teachers successfully.
Do I have to pay any agent fees?
Our services are free-of-charge for parents and students. You are only required to pay for Primary 1 Math lessons conducted. A portion of the total lesson fees usually in the first four weeks of lessons will be allocated to SmileTutor as the agency commission. This is deducted directly from the tutor’s fees, so you do not pay anything extra.
However, there is a 9% GST imposed on the agency commission. For example, if you engage a P1 tutor for $50 per class for once a week, the agency commission will be $100. Hence, the GST imposed is $9. This is only a one-off payment only and from 3rd lesson onward there is no GST since you pay the tutor directly. The tutor’s fees are not subjected to GST.
To facilitate the process for us to collect the agency fees, you are required to cooperate with us by transferring the allocated agency commission (usually 50% of the 1st month fees) + GST directly to SmileTutor. Thereafter, you will pay the remaining lessons to the Pri 1 Math tutor directly. Our Tuition Coordinators will inform you of the full payment details and instructions upon lesson confirmation.
Are there any contracts?
There are no contracts and obligations until you agree to engage our Primary 1 Math home tutors. When any assignment is confirmed, there are guidelines to follow to ensure that both the student and tutor can have a smooth and rewarding experience.
How can I be confident in the Primary 1 Math tutors suggested by SmileTutor?
In 2019, we introduced Quality Score™ which is our proprietary system that grades over 50,000 tutors based on multiple factors such as profile completeness, recent job acceptance, track records, parent reviews, and more. With this system, we are able to ensure that parents & students are constantly matched with the cream of the crop Primary 1 Mathematics tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our Primary 1 Math tutors have improved and our numbers of compliments had increased tremendously.
SmileTutor treats the credibility of our tutor profiles very seriously. All suspicious tutor applications or profiles with missing information are immediately investigated and blacklisted. For tutees who wish to personally verify their tutor’s qualifications and identity, you may request that the tutor bring their relevant certificates on the 1st lesson. (We do not to send online documents due to privacy laws). For current school teachers, it is our SOP to remind tutors to bring teacher’s pass on their first lesson as a form of verification to give tutee a peace of mind.

Will my child be ready for the PSLE with Primary 1 Math tuition?
Although PSLE preparation is not the focus in Primary 1, building a solid foundation in fundamental math concepts is essential for future success. Primary 1 Math tuition helps your child develop essential skills in addition, subtraction, and number recognition, which are crucial for tackling more advanced topics in the coming years.
By mastering these basics early on, your child will be well-prepared for more complex math concepts in Primary 2 and beyond, setting the stage for effective PSLE preparation later.

Once you have confirmed a suitable tutor, we’ll send you the lesson details via a confirmation email and you can start preparing for your first lesson!
Where are the Primary 1 Maths tuition lessons conducted?
The Primary 1 Maths tutoring lessons will be conducted at a pre-determined location according to your preference (usually at your home). If it is not convenient to have tuition conducted at your home, you may request for the tuition to be conducted somewhere else, such as the tutors home or at a convenient public location such as libraries, cafeterias, hostels, etc.
The location of the tuition lessons should be determined before the confirmation of lessons. Any change in address after lessons have started is subject to both parties approval
How are lessons conducted?
One of the main benefits of private tutoring is that we do not adopt a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every Primary 1 Maths tutor has their unique methodology, personality, and teaching style. During the prospecting phase, our coordinators do our due diligence to find out your child’s needs and weakest points in the Primary 1 Maths subject in order to match the most suitable tutor.
Usually, the first lesson is a ‘getting to know’ phase, where tutors will gauge your child’s interest in the subject, current level of proficiency, and spot areas of weakness. From the second lesson onwards, tutors will generally be more prepared to conduct the lessons according to the student’s learning or syllabus.
If you are a more hands-on parent, you can also communicate with the tutor and provide suggestions on which area you’d like the tutor to focus more on (i.e. composition writing). As there are no fixed lesson plans or arrangements, both the clients and tutors are free to discuss and conduct their lessons in any way that benefits the student’s learning.
Can I postpone lessons dates & timings?
Yes, of course. However, all postponements of lessons must be made at least 24 hours in advance of lessons, except for special cases (such as medical emergencies).
For postponement of the first lesson, SmileTutor must be informed via phone call at +65 6266 4475 (Mon to Sun 9am-8pm). A confirmation SMS will be sent to you acknowledging your postponement after the call. However, if you are informing at least 48 hours in advance, an SMS made to +65 9014 4201 will suffice.
Postponements of lessons after the first lesson may be made directly between tutor and tutee.
Please note that failure to make a postponement at least 24 hours in advance may incur compensation to the tutor for time loss (e.g wasted trips). Generally, the compensation amount is 50% of 1-lesson fee.
Can I terminate lessons if the tutor is not suitable?
You may terminate the tuition at any time after the first lesson but must inform SmileTutor at least 24 hours in advance of the next lesson and must pay for all lessons conducted. Terminations made less than 24 hours before the lesson will incur a late charge of 50% of that lesson’s total fee.
Termination Procedure
1. Inform SmileTutor via a phone call to +65 6266 4475 (9am-8pm) at least 24 hours in advance before the next lesson
2. Pay for lessons conducted, half directly to SmileTutor and WhatsApp the receipt to our Finance Dept. at +65 9450 4390
3. Pay the other half directly to the tutor
However, note that once you have confirmed the assignment to book the tutor in quote, there is a binding contract to complete one full lesson and you may only request a change of tutor or terminate the tuition only after that 1st lesson. If you decide to change your mind before the 1st lesson even commenced, the fee for the unfinished first lesson may be charged as an administrative fee.
Will tutors postpone lessons?
SmileTutor does not encourage tutors to make frequent postponements to the lessons. However, we do encourage you to offer some degree of flexibility as tutors are also human and may fall sick or have sudden emergencies from time to time.
If the tutor we assigned to you happen to make postponements more frequently than you prefer, you may wish to communicate with them and remind them to stick to the usual lesson schedule. Sometimes, a simple effort to communicate between both parties can go a long way in avoiding any disruption in lessons or last-minute discrepancies.
If you face further difficulties with your tutor in this area, please feedback to us immediately and we will arrange a new tutor for you.
Can my tutor terminate the lessons?
For termination of lessons, tutors are expected to commit for at least the 4-weeks of tuition. If the tutor backs out of an assignment without a valid reason (e.g. illness) before completing at least 4-weeks of tuition, he/she will not be entitled to receive any tuition fees. i.e. You will only be required to pay 50% of the tuition fees (plus any applicable taxes) directly to the agency.
Unfortunately, we are unable to force tutors to commit for more than 4-weeks. However, we do encourage responsible behaviour and let our tutors know that they should do their best to commit at least until the end of year exams. Most of our tutors follow through.
What about adding of subjects or students (e.g siblings)?
You may wish to try out one subject first and then add more subjects subsequently. Or, when starting the tuition, you may find yourself wanting to increase the frequency of lessons or to engage the same tutor for your other children. In any of these cases, please make your request through the agency in order to stay protected and keep the tutor accountable to the agency.
SmileTutor is not responsible for any engagements made outside of the agency’s knowledge. Hence, tutors and tutees are expected to inform their coordinators of any added lessons or changes to the lessons schedule/subjects/tutees immediately.
How do I feedback to SmileTutor regarding my good/bad experience?
You may email us at Email for any feedback or questions that are not answered under this FAQ.
For private feedback about the agency service, you may contact Rum (Founder) at 97558257 or email him at Rum Email.
We appreciate your help in providing us accurate feedback so as to improve our service and system.

Why is Primary 1 Maths Tuition So Popular Amongst Singaporean Parents?
1. Building Strong Foundations
Primary 1 marks the beginning of a child’s academic path, and parents understand that building a strong foundation in math is crucial. A solid math foundation fosters confidence and problem-solving abilities, making future learning easier. By focusing on these core skills, parents ensure their child has the tools necessary for success in Primary 1 and beyond.
2. Personalised Attention
One-on-one tuition ensures that the tutor can identify and address specific areas of difficulty, offering customized strategies for better comprehension. This focused approach helps children build a strong foundation in math, as they can receive instant feedback and additional support when needed. By working at their own pace, students are more likely to feel confident and engaged in their learning.
3. Preparing for the PSLE Journey
Although the PSLE may seem distant for Primary 1 students, laying a strong mathematical foundation early on sets the stage for future success. By mastering basic concepts in Primary 1, students develop the skills needed to tackle more complex topics in later years. This early preparation allows them to build confidence and problem-solving abilities, making future PSLE preparation more manageable.
Watching friends count and play with numbers in Primary 1 can be exciting for some, but overwhelming for others. It’s easy to feel left behind when things don’t click right away. SmileTutor knows the importance of building a strong foundation early on. We’re dedicated to making math fun and engaging, helping your child develop a positive attitude towards numbers and boosting their confidence from the very start.
What to Look Out For in Primary 1 Mathematics Tuition Teachers
That’s right –we are with you on this…
Engaging and Supportive Approach
When selecting a tutor, prioritize those who can make math fun and accessible through interactive methods. A great tutor will incorporate games, visuals, and hands-on activities to bring math concepts to life, making learning both enjoyable and effective.
Whether your child is a visual learner, needs step-by-step explanations, or benefits from interactive exercises, the tutor should be flexible in tailoring the lesson to meet their unique needs.
A patient and understanding tutor is key to creating a positive learning environment. They should encourage your child to view mistakes as valuable learning opportunities, promoting a growth mindset. By providing constructive feedback and celebrating small achievements, the tutor can boost your child’s confidence and foster a natural curiosity for exploring new math challenges.
Additionally, the tutor should establish a rapport with your child, creating a safe space where they feel comfortable asking questions and expressing their thoughts.

Interactive Learning and Engagement
When choosing a tutor for Primary 1, it’s essential to select one who understands the importance of making learning engaging for young children. At this age, kids learn best through play and interactive experiences.
A good tutor will integrate fun, hands-on activities like math games, puzzles, and songs to ensure your child is excited to learn. This approach keeps your child’s interest alive while reinforcing core math concepts in an enjoyable way.
At the same time, a strong tutor will pay attention to your child’s individual learning needs, providing personalized explanations and repeating concepts when necessary.
