Register About Us
MOE-Registered Teachers
Most of our teachers at The Maths Lab are MOE-registered. Attaining MOE-registration requires teachers to submit their A-level & university transcripts to be vetted by the Ministry of Education. MOE also does a background check to ensure the individual is a “person of good moral standing”, and without any prior infractions with the law.
We understand parents need a high level of certainty when engaging a tutor ― certainty that the tutor possesses proficient knowledge of the subject matter, and that the tutor is of good moral standing. We require our teachers to be MOE-registered, so that when your entrust your child to us, you will have the peace of mind that your child is in good hands.
Small Class Sizes
Student-to-teacher ratios are important to us. Studies show that smaller class sizes correlate with better student participation & interaction. Lesson plans can also be tailored to better meet the needs of individual students. This is why we keep our classes small and cohesive.

Comprehensive Materials
Quality materials & handouts are necessary for students to improve. Aside from lectures and classes, our take-home materials are the 2nd most important way we use to help students do well.
Our teachers continually source for the latest MOE exam papers, the most recent assessment books, and the most updated school notes for our students. So whether you are working on Log Functions or Trigonometry, you will always have a complete and detailed set of notes by your side.
Conducive Classrooms
All rooms are set to 23 deg C for productive learning
Classrooms are fitted with HDTVs and projector screens for visualisations
Our desks are corporate-styled conference tables with pine-wood trimings

A Complete Syllabus ― With Step-By-Step Exam Preparation
We spend a significant amount of time & resources to create a syllabus that is both highly effective & complete. We understand that students have busy schedules too. Our goal is to create a syllabus that allows the student to outperform in the examinations, yet does not require excessive studying time.
The Mathematics exam paper can seem overwhelming at first, with numerous topics, multiple concepts, and endless equations ― but we are confident that, if a student puts in the requisite effort, they can master the required topics in time for the exams. Our syllabus is continually revised every year, so that we focus on the most relevant topics and use the most updated lesson plans.
Corporate Responsibility
We have collaborated with an NGO & MOE to provide subsidised tuition for students from lower-income families. We conduct these classes at MOE schools on weekends. We hope to do our small part for the Singapore community.

When Japan cut classroom hours and introduced more flexible learning in the 1980s, under a policy which it called the Yutori – which means “relax” – students’ scores dropped. Parents tried to compensate by sending them to cram schools to make up for the decline in rigour in the regular classroom. Read More

Why Doing Well In Math Is Important
Maths is a very important subject for students in Singapore. It is a compulsory subject that students have to take from primary school all the way to the A-levels. In fact, doing well in mathematics is often a prerequisite for many of the popular courses in University, such as engineering.
Maths is also extremely useful in real life applications, such as when we pay for something and make sure we get the right amount of change back. In the professional world, complex mathematics algorithms are also used daily in the banking, engineering and accounting sectors.
Singapore students are often ranked near the top of world rankings for mathematics, this is due in part to the advanced mathematics curriculum of the Ministry of Education. There has been a steady increase in the number of topics covered by the Mathematics curriculum, moreover each topic is taught in greater depth and difficulty.
At The Maths Lab, we strive to make mathematics a useful and interesting subject through the use of visual aids, to show how mathematics can solve real-life problems. We find that when students realize the importance of mathematics, they are inclined to take it seriously, and ultimately perform better in the subject.
Class Chats
As part of our online learning initiative, we have an internet chat forum for our students and teachers. Students are welcome to post discussions on topics and problems we have discussed in class. If you have a question, search the forum, and chances are you will find the answer instantly!
SuperTeen Programme
Our aspirations for our students extend beyond simply doing well in the exams. To this end, we try to encourage our students to better themselves for life with a series of self-help books that we distribute for free!
Online Feedback
Connect with you teacher on a daily basis! Students can now take a picture of their work and send it via Whatsapp or Email to your teacher for feedback. Your teacher will get back to you within 24 hours and you can move on to more important stuff.
Helping Needy Students
Written in our school constitution is mission is to help every student, notwithstanding their financial resources. That’s why we have a programme dedicated to students who face financial hardship, to help and nurture them as best we can.
Take-Home Practices
There is no substitute for practice. So every week, we give an ample amount of practice problems for the student to take home. Our practice problems are specifically selected to repeat and reinforce what the student learns in class that week.
Getting to University
Seeing our students enter university is always a bittersweet moment. We are happy to have been a part of their journey in life, and we wish them all the best. Fortunately, many students do keep in touch with us, as well as with the friends they made here.
The recipe for success
Each child’s learning needs are unique. We understand this and ensure that children with special learning difficulties can still perform well with our quality teaching methodologies. Our teachers are professionally trained, and will give each child the care they deserve.
Confidence is key
Confidence is a crucial element to a child’s progress. A typical child has to battle hard to be heard in the average class size of 40 students during lessons. At the Math Lab, each student gets personalised attention from their tutor and our class size is limited to 5-12 students.
Help them level up
If you feel your child can have the potential to perform better, the Math Lab will help your child to reach the next level.
Exam preparation
At The Math Lab, we are confident that we have the resources and experience to help your child achieve their best.
