Struggling with Sec 4 Chemistry? SmileTutor Can Help Your Child Master It!
Challenges Faced By Sec 4 Chemistry Students
1. Strengthening Understanding For O-Level Exam Success
Sec 4 is a critical year for students preparing for their O Levels. The challenge is to solidify their understanding of Chemistry and make sure they have a firm grasp on both foundational and advanced topics. The shift from general learning to in-depth exam preparation can be daunting, especially when students face complex topics like organic chemistry and electrochemistry. The key to success at this stage is not just memorizing content but developing the ability to apply chemical principles in various exam scenarios.
2. Overcoming Exam Stress And Time Constraints
As the O-Level exams approach, the pressure to perform well intensifies. Secondary 4 students often struggle with balancing revision for multiple subjects while coping with the stress of upcoming exams. The Chemistry syllabus can feel overwhelming in its depth, requiring students to dedicate long hours to both theory revision and practice questions. Time management becomes essential, as students need to prioritize areas of weakness while ensuring comprehensive exam preparation.
3. Mastering Practical Chemistry Skills
Sec 4 students often find the practical component of Chemistry challenging, especially when it comes to designing experiments, interpreting results, and applying theory to real-world experiments. The need to balance theory and practice becomes more pronounced, as students must understand how abstract concepts like chemical reactions are demonstrated in a laboratory setting. For many students, the ability to seamlessly apply their theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios is a major hurdle.
The Answer - Personalized Sec 4 Chemistry Tuition

How 1-to-1 Sec 4 Chemistry Tuition Stands Out From Group Classes at Tuition Centres?
1. Customized Exam Preparation
In a 1-to-1 Sec 4 Chemistry tuition class, the tutor tailors lessons specifically to the student’s strengths and weaknesses, focusing on key topics and strategies that align with the upcoming O-Level exams. This targeted approach ensures students are well-prepared, unlike group classes where the same content is taught to everyone, regardless of individual needs.
2. Immediate Feedback And Support
With 1-to-1 tuition, students receive instant feedback on their work, allowing them to correct mistakes and deepen their understanding right away. In contrast, group classes at tuition centres may not have the time or opportunity to provide this level of individual attention, leaving students to wait for feedback.
3. Flexible Learning Schedule
1-to-1 Sec 4 Chemistry tuition offers a level of scheduling flexibility that group classes can’t match. Students can arrange lessons around their busy school schedules, extracurricular activities, and revision plans, making it easier to maintain a balanced routine during the high-pressure O-Level period.

Sec 4 Chemistry Tuition Pricing FAQs
What Is The Differences Between The Types Of Sec 4 Chemistry Tutors Available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time Sec 4 Chem 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 Sec 4 Chem 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.
– Sec 4 Chem 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 Secondary Sec 4 Chemistry 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 Sec 4 Chemistry 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 private Sec 4 Chem 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 Private Sec 4 O-Level Chem Tutors Recommended By SmileTutor?

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.

My daughter was failing Chemistry and needed help. We approached Smile Tutor who recommended Kaung Naung to be her tutor. He was very patient in teaching and guiding her the concepts, which increased her understanding in the subject and as a result, her confidence was boosted. She just collected her O level results and achieved an A2! I just want to say a big thank you to Smile Tutor & Kaung Naung!

Our Coordinators will ensure that both parties agree on the lesson details and pricing before confirming the lessons.

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 Sec 4 Chemistry tuition lessons conducted?
The Sec 4 Chemistry 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 Sec 4 Chemistry 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 Sec 4 Chemistry 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.
