Is Your Child Under-Estimating Social Studies?

Challenges Faced by Social Studies Students

How to study for Social Studies? Even though social studies is seen as a recreational subject in primary schools, it becomes a big deal in the secondary years. It is compulsory for students to take up social studies along with either history or geography in order to pass the GCE O-levels.

Singaporean parents tend to focus all their attention on finding O level geography tuition and O Level history tutors for their child and neglect social studies altogether. This is a huge mistake indeed.

If your child is taking combined humanities, social studies is as integral as the other humanities subject (i.e. combined history or combined geography). And yet, many students are receiving several hours of history and geography tuition and having zero tuition in social studies. Is it a smart move to put 90% of all your effort behind two out of three subjects when it is certain you can’t advance without the third? Definitely not!

Learning in the classroom has never been a one-size-fits-all solution. In an environment where 40 students vie for 1 teacher’s attention, it is no wonder that some kids fall behind. The problem with Social Studies is that when a student fails to grasp a particular Social Studies topic or formula, it is difficult to keep up as the teacher moves on to the next topic.

Failing in Social Studies will not just affect your child in their PSLE, O-levels, and A-levels. It can severely limit their choices when they head to polytechnic or university, where there is a significant number of courses involved in Social Studies and require good Social Studies grades such as Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and even Physics, Biological Social Studies, and Medicine.

We will tackle three key areas that students need to develop strong skills and aptitude in order to achieve good success in SS exams:

1. Source-based skills
The best strategies for tackling source-based questions will be taught extensively to equip students with the necessary skills before going in for the exam.

2. Structured-response skills
This is a tough component added to the new syllabus which involves critical thinking and the ability to relate proposals to the key issues affecting Singapore. Now, it’s not just enough to have a thorough understanding of the content. Your child will be properly guided to put their ideas in writing in a very logical and clear manner.

3. Evaluation skills
This is also an important area of assessment in the new syllabus. So the tutor will work to equip your child with the strategy for selecting and evaluating the right sources so as to gain the highest marks possible for this section.
If your child encounters any sort of challenge with a tutor we send over, and you’d like us to make a replacement – we will gladly do that fast —free of charge!

Our Solution - 1:1 Private Social Studies Tuition

1:1 Social Studies tuition provides targeted support for your child’s success:

  • Dedicated help with school and homework
  • Access to fun-filled and interesting social studies tuition
  • Subject-savvy mentor ready to offer quality tutoring
  • Enjoy the convenience of learning right at your doorstep
  • A dedicated Social studies tutor able to impart innovative study tips

A far better strategy would be for your child to give equal attention and input into Social Studies tuition as they would – Geography andHistory, combined humanities tuition with our combined humanities tutors. Engaging a Social Studies tutor to help your child score high in SS is as good an approach as hiring a history and geography tutor.

They’re all equally important!

Don’t let your child join their peers in undervaluing Social Studies –it could turn out to be a costly mistake. As you plan to hire a tutor for History, Geography and other subjects – do well to include social studies into the mix to maximise your child’s success in Secondary School.

Social Studies is really important for your child holistically, not just academically. Through a holistic learning experience, SS ingrains a fundamental human understanding, the right moral fabric, and a sense of responsibility towards society.

Ultimately, effective social studies tuition in Singapore creates thoughtful, intelligent and inquisitive students who are able to adopt multiple perspectives to issues and mature into highly valuable and passionate members that contribute their quota to the society they live in.

SmileTutor understands this situation perfectly, which is why our tuition agency makes available outstanding A-level tutors who have the experience and skill to deliver results.

So, are you ready to contact us for an excellent SS tutor for your child?

Social Studies Tuition Pricing FAQs

What Is The Difference Between The Types Of Social Studies Tutors Available?

To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:

Part-Time Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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.

Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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 Social Studies tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our private Social Studies 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.

    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 Social Studies tuition lessons conducted?

    The Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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 Social Studies 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.
