Challenges Faced by Primary 3 Maths Students
1. Time Management
While time management isn’t heavily emphasized in Primary 1 and Primary 2, it’s an essential skill that is gradually introduced. By Primary 3, students need to manage their time during math tests effectively. This skill is critical as students progress to Primary 5 and Primary 6, where exam pressures increase, and time management plays a significant role in handling complex problems in preparation for the PSLE.
2. Critical Thinking and Logical Reasoning
Primary 3 challenges students to think critically and logically when solving word problems. This requires building on the basic problem-solving skills learned in earlier years and strengthening their ability to analyse and solve more abstract problems, which will become crucial in Upper Primary.
3. Solving Multi-Step Word Problems
Primary 3 introduces more complex word problems that require multi-step solutions. This is an extension of problem-solving techniques learned in Primary 1 and Primary 2. Developing strong critical thinking and reading comprehension skills is crucial for breaking down the information in the problem and tackling each step systematically.

What makes individualised Primary 3 Maths tutoring different from group classes at a tuition Centre?
1. Individualised Pace
In a 1-to-1 setting, students can move through multiplication and division concepts at their own speed, allowing for deeper understanding without the pressure of keeping up with peers.
2. In-Depth Concept Exploration
Tutors can spend more time exploring fractions and data handling in a way that resonates with the student, fostering a stronger grasp of these topics.
3. Consistent Tutor Relationship
Building a rapport with a single tutor allows for a supportive learning environment, where the child feels more comfortable asking questions and making mistakes.
What makes an excellent Primary 3 Maths tuition teacher stand out?
1. Strong Conceptual Understanding
An effective teacher must have a deep grasp of multiplication, division, and fractions, enabling them to explain concepts confidently and clearly.
2. Encouraging Independence
Teaching students to think independently and tackle problems on their own is crucial, fostering self-confidence as they engage with data handling skills.
3. Use of Technology
Incorporating educational technology and tools can enhance learning, making abstract concepts more tangible and relatable for Primary 3 students.

Primary 3 Math Home Tuition Rates FAQs
What is the difference between the type of Primary 3 Math tutors available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time Primary 3 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 3 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 3 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 3 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 Primary 3 Math 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 3 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 3 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 ensure the Primary 3 Math tutors recommended by SmileTutor are trustworthy?
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 3 Mathematics tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our Primary 3 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.

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 3 Maths tuition lessons conducted?
The Primary 3 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 3 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 3 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.

Creativity is crucial in keeping your child interested. The best tutors incorporate real-life examples, relatable analogies, and interactive activities to demonstrate math concepts. This allows your child to see how math is applicable in their daily lives.
Positive reinforcement plays a huge role in your child’s development. A great tutor offers consistent praise, celebrating progress no matter how small. This encouragement boosts your child’s confidence and motivates them to keep improving.
Lastly, patience is essential in creating a safe learning environment. A tutor who takes the time to ensure your child understands each concept and answers their questions fosters an atmosphere where your child feels comfortable making mistakes and asking for help.

At the Primary 3 level, it’s important to choose a tutor who can break down more complex mathematical concepts into small, manageable steps. A skilled tutor will explain ideas in ways that are easy for your child to grasp, ensuring that they don’t feel overwhelmed.
The tutor should be able to relate examples and analogies to your child’s everyday experiences. Whether it’s using familiar objects or real-life scenarios, these connections make math more engaging and help your child see the relevance of what they’re learning.
A great tutor will create a welcoming environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions. Mistakes are viewed as stepping stones to success, and every effort is praised, helping your child develop resilience and a positive attitude towards learning.
This supportive and nurturing approach fosters both emotional and intellectual growth. By focusing on building confidence and deepening understanding, the tutor ensures that your child not only performs better in math and gains the skills to succeed.
