FAQs (of Economics Tuition)

Question: How do I make payment?

Group Economics Tuition Lessons

For group lessons, students are encouraged to attend the first lesson, risk free. The fees will only be collected on the second lesson. The fees are collected for every 5 lessons or collected on a per-term basis.

Receipts will be issued to students as proof of payment.

 

Private Individual Economics Tuition Lessons

For individual lessons, the tuition fees will only be collected after every 4 lessons.

For the first 4 lessons, the Agency will only receive commission for completion of the first 2 lessons. The student/parent shall forward 40% of the tuition fees of the 2 lessons to the agency. The Economics home tutor shall receive the remaining 60% at the end of the 4th lesson.

ALL the fees for subsequently lessons from the 5th lesson accrues to the home tutor.

Example: The Economics home tuition teacher charges $120 /hr. At the end of the 2nd lesson, the Agency claims 40% of the tuition fees of the 2 lessons as Agency commission.

Per hour: 120

Per lesson: 240

2 lessons: 480

Therefore, Agency commission is 40% of 480 = $192.

(Terms are negotiable for individual tuition lessons.)

Important Note: In the unlikely event that the student/parent is dissatisfied with the tutor's performance and wishes to terminate the tuition services at the end of the first lesson, the Agency in this case receives NO commission. 100% of the first lesson fees is accrued to the Economics home tutor.

(There is no free trial for individual home tuition.)

Question: What are the tuition fees and rates?

Our rates are very affordable and very competitive. For instance, our group rates range from $30 to $45 per hour. The difference depends on when you or your child joins the lessons. The earlier you join, the lower the rate.

There's also a very small one-time administrative fee.

 

Question: What do you mean by your first lesson being RISK-FREE?

Any student can attend any of our group lessons and classes on a risk free basis. By this, we mean that you can come for the first lesson literally without any risk, because we won't be collecting any fees during the first lesson.

In the very unlikely event that we do not add value to your revision at all, naturally you are disappointed, and would like to stop all future lessons.

We do not object. In fact, we do not even ask you to pay a single cent. That means, if after the risk free (first) lesson, you wish to discontinue the second and all future lessons, the first lesson is not charged. Hence, the meaning risk-free.

However, should you continue to attend any lessons in future, the first lesson is considered well done, and we will ask for the fees for the first lesson too. (Note: this applies at all times within 24 months of the date of the first risk-free lesson.)

 

Question: Miscellaneous

Who Else Wants An 'A' for the 2012 A-Level Economics H1 Paper?


Testimonials: 

Mr Tan, you are probably one of the most effective teachers that I have learnt from.

Within such a short period of time, I have a learnt a lot and I believed that I have gain an upperhand in relation to many of my peers in school for Econs; for this, I thank you.

I will continue to strive for excellence under you and attempt my best for Economics. As you always put it, Economics is indeed scorable! I hope all your students will experience the magic that you have brought to me.

I am certain that your teachings will put me in very good stead for the GCE A-Levels Economics. I have also managed to see the fun side of Economics under your baton.

Thank you very much.

Andrew
Anglo-Chinese Junior College (ACJC), 2010 JC2, H2 Economics

I have always been very interested in Economics but I never managed to do well. I had little problems with all my other subjects, Economics was my only weakness. Before I attended your lessons, I scored an E grade for Economics during my midyear exam. Failing was common to me.

During the time which I attended your lessons, my grades improved tremendously and I managed to score an A grade for Economics during my Common Test. For one, it was the first time I have scored an A grade for Economics.

With my Common Test results, I applied for a provisional scholarship. Not long after, I was informed that the board has awarded me a scholarship. Had it not been for you, I would never be able to get an A for Economics in my common test and hence the scholarship.
 
You are a really skilled teacher. You could explain concepts in the way that was clear, concise and easy to understand. You taught me many techniques in dealing with case study questions. Learning economics under you was really easy, if only I had more time to learn from you. If only there were more economics teachers like you.

Although it is my weakest subject, I am proud to say that I will be reading economics for my undergraduate studies.
 
I really can't thank you enough. I only hope that more students can benefit from your teaching in future and I genuinely wish you well for your future endeavors.

Mr Tan is a great Econs teacher. Besides the ingenious examples he uses in class to help the students understand easier, he really knows how the grade 'A' is obtained.

Just after 6 lessons, I topped my class in Econs, and my percentile went up from 41% to 86%!

A surprise I always enjoy is that he will explain how the Econs concepts and principles that apply to firms and economies, can also apply to my own life. Now I know how to structure a profitable business!
