Are you constantly stressed about your child’s approaching A-Level Biology exam?
Challenges Faced by A-Level Bio Students
A-Level Biology can be both exciting and daunting, as it delves deep into the workings of life, from molecules to ecosystems. While fascinating, it also presents a number of challenges for students striving to excel. Here are 3 common obstacles:
1) Complex Syllabus
The A-Level Biology syllabus is considerably more advanced compared to Secondary School (Sec 3 and Sec 4) Biology, delving into detailed topics like biochemistry, human physiology, and ecology. The depth and breadth of these subjects require students to not only recall facts but also understand how different concepts interconnect. This can be a difficult leap for students who have only studied foundational concepts in Sec 3 and Sec 4.
2) Exam Pressure
A-Level Biology exams, especially for H2 students, carry more weight than O-Level or Sec 3 and Sec 4 exams. The pressure to perform well can be intense, with students aiming for top marks to secure university placements. Students who have excelled in Secondary School Biology might struggle with the transition to the heightened expectations and difficulty level at the A-Level, which requires mastering a wide range of topics and applying them efficiently in exams.
3) The Fast-Paced Syllabus
A-Level Biology moves at a brisk pace, with students expected to absorb new material quickly. The subject’s broad syllabus, combined with regular assessments, can leave students feeling overwhelmed. Without a solid study plan and guidance, it’s easy for students to fall behind and struggle to catch up.
The Best Solution - Private A-Level Biology Tuition

Why 1-to-1 A-Level Biology Tuition Beats A Tuition Centre?
1. Tailored to Your Child’s Needs
In 1-to-1 A-Level Biology lessons, your child gets a Personalised experience that’s hard to beat in a group setting. Instead of being rushed through lessons with a one-size-fits-all approach, the tutor can focus on what your child specifically needs help with. Whether it’s cracking complex topics like genetics or solidifying the basics of photosynthesis, the tutor can adjust the pace to suit them. This way, they can tackle challenging areas without feeling overwhelmed or bored, making learning way more effective and enjoyable.
2. Learning at Their Own Pace
The beauty of private lessons is that they allow your child to work at a pace that makes sense for them. While tuition centres often follow a fixed timetable, your child’s tutor can slow down if they’re struggling with a tricky concept, or speed things up when they’re on top of the material. If they need extra time to master topics like cell division or enzymes, no problem – they won’t be left behind or feel rushed. Plus, lessons can be scheduled when it suits your child best, making it a lot less stressful and easier to balance with other activities.
3. Focused Exam Practice
With 1-to-1 tuition, the focus is squarely on helping your child prepare for their exams, in a way that feels relevant to them. Rather than simply following a set curriculum, the tutor zeroes in on areas where your child might be struggling, whether it’s dissecting exam questions or working through past papers on topics like ecology or human physiology. They get immediate feedback, practical exam strategies, and the chance to refine their problem-solving skills, making them feel much more confident come exam time.

A-Level Biology Tuition Pricing FAQs
What're The Differences Between The Types Of Biology Tutors Available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time A-Level Bio Tutors – refers to private tutors who 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 A-Level Bio 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.
– A-Level Bio 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 A-Level Bio 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 an A-Level Bio home 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 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 A-Level Biology 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 Trust The Biology Tutors Recommended 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 A-Level Biology tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our private A-Level Biology 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.

Engaged tutor Ms Lim for JC H2 biology. Was very impressed with her dedication in teaching and her familiarity with the syllabus. Was struggling so much with biology and just couldn’t apply what I memorized into the questions that were being asked in the exams or test paper practises.

When I sent Smiletutor my expectations for a tutor, a lady from Smiletutor (pls help me commend this lady, didn’t get her name, she was very patient and attentive) responded to me and updating tutor’s info to me and was resourceful at getting tutors that matched my expectations. Thus far, Tutors introduced, Ms Lin Chan and Mr Ashley are experienced and qualified teachers, they are very knowledgeable, confident, friendly, patient, helpful and accommodative. My child enjoys her tuition with both tutors. Thank you Smiletutor.

Read lessFrequently Asked Questions about A-Level Biology Tuition in Singapore
What is the difference between H1 and H2 A-Level Biology?
H1 A-Level Biology covers the core concepts of biology, providing students with a solid understanding of fundamental biological principles, typically for those who take Biology as a single-subject. H2 A-Level Biology, on the other hand, delves into more advanced topics, covering a wider range of biological systems and offering a more detailed understanding of complex concepts. The syllabus for H2 is more extensive, requiring a deeper level of analysis and application. Tuition for both H1 and H2 can be tailored to help students master the specific content and skills needed for their respective syllabi.
When Is The Right Time To Start A-Level Biology Tuition?
It’s never too early to start, but the sooner your child begins receiving help, the better. If your child is finding the jump from O-Level Bio to A-Level Biology overwhelming or is struggling to keep up with the pace of the syllabus, starting tuition early ensures a solid foundation. SmileTutor’s tutors assess your child’s strengths and weaknesses, creating a plan that builds on what they already know and prepares them for more advanced topics as they move through the syllabus.
How Does A-Level Biology Tuition Help With Practicals And Experiments?
Practical exams are a key component of A-Level Biology, but many students find them challenging. SmileTutor’s tutors ensure your child is well-prepared for lab-based assessments by reinforcing theoretical knowledge with practical applications. We help students design experiments, interpret results, and understand the scientific principles behind every experiment. With Personalised coaching, your child can improve their confidence and performance in practical assessments.
What Makes A-Level Biology Different From O-Level Biology?
A-Level Biology delves deeper into advanced topics, requiring students to connect complex concepts and apply them in various contexts. Topics like genetics, human physiology, and evolution are covered in greater detail. SmileTutor’s A-Level tutors guide students through these intricate topics by building on their foundational knowledge and encouraging deeper understanding. This approach prepares them for both theoretical exams and practical applications, ensuring they are ready for every aspect of the A-Level Biology syllabus.

Sure, if you have any tutors in mind, feel free to give us a call at +65 6266 4475 and let us know the information of the A Level Biology tutor you are looking for. As we have the most extensive database in Singapore, we may be able to find the tutor you are looking for.
Alternatively, you may view some of our latest available tutors at our ‘View Tutors’ page. From this page you can do some DIY sourcing and indicate your interest directly there. However, do note that the availability of the tutor may not be guaranteed. Our Coordinators will be swift to advice you on the availabilities of the requested tutor and recommend any similar tutors that may be available if needed.
Where are the A Level Biology tuition lessons conducted?
The A Level Biology 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 A Level Biology 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 A Level Biology 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.
