A-Levels are a rigorous, globally recognised qualification that prepares students for university in the UK and beyond. Students typically take three or four subjects in depth over two years, completing AS content in the first year and full A2 papers in the second.
In Singapore, "A-Level" can mean two different exams. Most local students at junior colleges and Millennia Institute sit the Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level, a national exam run by the Ministry of Education and SEAB with its own H1, H2 and H3 subjects. International schools and private colleges teach the Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International A-Levels instead, which have different syllabuses, papers and mark schemes. Our tutoring focuses on the international A-Levels, supporting students at these schools as well as those studying independently.
With tailored learning plans built around each school's syllabus and exam series, we help students across Singapore reach their full potential in the A-Level curriculum.
Schools we have supported in Singapore
So far, we have helped students achieve A*/A grades in their chosen subjects from the following schools in Singapore:
- Tanglin Trust School
- St Francis Methodist School
- Dimensions International College
- Integrated International School
- DPS International School
International schools: Tanglin Trust is the largest international school in Singapore offering A-Levels, running them alongside the IB Diploma. Many other international schools move to the IB after IGCSE, so families often weigh subject depth against breadth at 16.
Private schools and colleges: Private schools and colleges such as St Francis Methodist and Dimensions run Cambridge International A-Level programmes, often for international students or those moving across from the local system.
Students switching from the local system: Students moving from a junior college to the international A-Level, often ahead of a move overseas, who need to adjust to different syllabuses and paper styles.
Private candidates: Students entering exams independently through the British Council in Singapore, including retakers, homeschoolers and adult learners.
A-Levels are the standard entry route to UK universities and are recognised for admission, and sometimes credit, in the US, Canada, Australia and across Asia. In Singapore, the international A-Levels are accepted as an international qualification by local universities including NUS and NTU, so families can keep local and overseas options open with one set of grades.
- Direct UCAS route to UK universities
- Accepted by Singapore universities including NUS and NTU
- Recognised for US, Australian and wider Asian admissions
- Two exam series a year, so a resit doesn't mean waiting a full year
Why students in Singapore choose us
Singapore has one of the largest tuition markets in the world, but nearly all of it is built around the Singapore-Cambridge A-Level. A tutor who knows H2 Chemistry inside out may never have taught the Cambridge International 9701 syllabus or an Edexcel International paper, and the differences in content, paper structure and mark schemes are big enough to cost grades. Families at international schools and private colleges often find the local tuition market simply doesn't fit their child's exam.

I tutor English at A level and IGCSE, across both Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel. One to one, built around what the mark scheme actually rewards rather than what students assume it does.Tell me where you are and where you want to be, and we'll work out how to get there.

I'm a Business, Economics and Accounting teacher with over six years' experience preparing students for A Level, IGCSE and O Level exams. I teach to the Cambridge (CIE) and Pearson Edexcel specifications, so lessons are built around what each mark scheme rewards: precise definitions, application to the case, and well-supported evaluation.
At A Level, I focus on the skills that lift grades: structuring extended essay answers, applying theory to case-study data, and handling calculation-heavy Accounting questions. At IGCSE and O Level, I build secure foundations so students go into their exams confident.
My lessons are interactive and exam-focused. We work through past papers, examiner reports and mark schemes, and I connect every concept to real business examples so it sticks. Students leave with better grades and the confidence to think analytically and apply their knowledge independently.

Which boards and exam sessions
International schools and private colleges in Singapore mostly follow Cambridge International, with some schools and subjects on Pearson Edexcel International. Because the international boards run two exam series a year, students can sit, or resit, in either the summer or autumn series rather than waiting a full year. This is separate from the Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level, which has one national sitting a year.
- Cambridge and Edexcel International (international schools and private colleges): Two exam series each year: May/June (results in August) and October/November (results in January). Edexcel International also offers a January sitting for some subjects.
- Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level (local system): Taken at junior colleges and Millennia Institute, with one national sitting a year. It uses different syllabuses from the international A-Levels, so check which exam you are preparing for before choosing a tutor.
Exam centres and private candidate registration
Most students in Singapore sit through their own international school or college. Those studying independently, resitting after leaving school, or taking a subject their school doesn't offer can register as private candidates at an approved exam centre. The British Council in Singapore runs Cambridge International and Pearson Edexcel exams for private candidates, and some Cambridge schools also accept external entries. Private candidates for the local Singapore-Cambridge A-Level register separately through SEAB. Registration deadlines fall several months before each series, and exam fees are paid to the centre, not to us.
- Through your school: Students at an international school or private college offering A-Levels are entered by the school. Nothing to arrange.
- As a private candidate at a local centre: The British Council's Napier Road centre is the main route for Cambridge International and Edexcel International private candidates, with registration through its online School Exams Registration System. Some Cambridge schools also take external candidates, so confirm subject availability before you register.
- Registration deadlines: Entry deadlines close several months ahead of each series, with a penalty fee for late-stage entries. Plan early, especially for resits.

Singapore's huge tuition market is built around the Singapore-Cambridge A-Level, and a tutor who knows H2 Chemistry well may never have taught the Cambridge International 9701 syllabus or an Edexcel International paper. Working online lets us match you with a specialist in your actual exam rather than the local one. Parents can join any lesson without notice. See how we select tutors.
