Please do not call, please use SMS instead, thank you.
All new students please read my Terms & Conditions before joining my tuition.
Monthly Fees per 2021 JC1 student (1:1 Individual) : $600 for 4 sessions (2.5 hours per session)
Monthly Fees per 2021 JC2 student (1:1 Individual) : $600+ for 4 sessions (2.5 hours per session)
My hourly rate = $600 / (4 x 2.5) = $60 per hour, which is the most affordable 1:1 Individual H2 Chemistry tuition in Singapore by an ex-MOE Teacher (ie. me)
(Group Tuition currently suspended indefinitely due to Singapore's Covid situation)
Monthly Fees per 2021 JC1 student (Small Group) : $350 for 4 sessions (2.5 hours per session)
Monthly Fees per 2021 JC2 student (Small Group) : $350+ for 4 sessions (2.5 hours per session)
My hourly rate = $350 / (4 x 2.5) = $35 per hour, which is the most affordable Small Group H2 Chemistry tuition in Singapore by an ex-MOE Teacher (ie. me)
Private Candidates taking the 2021 A Level Exams are considered as JC2 students for fees payable
For ad hoc single sessions, fees will be charged a slightly higher rate from students who commit to regular sessions. For J1 students : $150 for 1:1 Individual Tuition, or $100 per student for Small Group Tuition (you need to find a friend to come with), per each ad hoc 2.5 hrs session. For J2 students, please see the ad hoc fees table. Fees have to be paid in cash (not cheque) at the start (not end) of each ad hoc 2.5 hrs session. Scheduling subject to availability.

The BedokFunland JC Advantage (3 examples) :
Here are BedokFunland JC, you'll learn lots of fascinating advanced H2 Chem as well as relevant (ie. helpful for mastering H2 Chem) H3 Chem & Olympiad Chem concepts & skills, not taught to H2 Chem students in Singapore JCs, that will help you understand and master the H2 Chem syllabus better than your peers in school, ie. the BedokFunland JC advantage. The following examples testify to this.
In the recent 2018 A Level H2 Chem Exams, the following question was asked :
How many moles of NaOH(aq) are reacted when one mole of the above molecule is heated under reflux with an excess of NaOH(aq)? Explain.
On Reddit, a H3 Chem student from an elite Singapore JC wrote :
My BedokFunland JC students would know that the hydrolysis of esters (and amides, for that matter) is either acid-catalyzed or base-promoted, but not base-catalyzed (unlike Aldol reactions, for instance). As such, my BedokFunland JC students (being familiar with these and dozens of other useful reaction mechanisms not taught to H2 Chem students in Singapore JCs) would easily arrive at the correct answer for this 2018 A Level H2 Chem Exam question, which is : 1 mole of NaOH(aq) used up for the base-promoted hydrolysis of the ester group, plus another 5 moles of NaOH(aq) used up for the deprotonation of the carboxylic acid group and 4 phenol groups, for a total of 6 moles of NaOH(aq) reacted & used up.
Another question that came out in the same 2018 A Level H2 Chem Exams, was about the optical activity of the stereoisomers of 3,4-dibromohexane :
On the same Reddit page, another H3 Chem student from another elite Singapore JC wrote :
My BedokFunland JC students would know that merely labeling the stereoisomers with the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules, does not by itself answer the question's requirements about optical activity. For instance, in the amino acid Threonine, the 2S,3R and the 2R,3S stereoisomers are non-superposable mirror images of each other, and are hence optically active enantiomers.
However, in the case of 3,4-dibromohexane, due to an internal plane of symmetry, the 3S,4R and the 3R,4S stereoisomers are superposable mirror images of each other, meaning that they are actually the same molecule, which is hence the optically inactive meso isomer.
Conclusion : my BedokFunland JC students enjoy the benefit of learning and applying advanced H2 Chem knowledge, together with relevant H3 Chem understanding and Olympiad Chem skills, effectively gaining a deeper mastery of the H2 Chem syllabus, thus giving them a powerful advantage towards an A grade for the H2 Chem A Level Exams, compared to other tuition centers or private tutors (who largely stick to the basic H2 Chem syllabus, repeating what's already taught in Singapore JCs), even when compared to H3 Chem students in Singapore JCs, as seen in the above examples on Reddit.

Ad hoc Fees Table
For ad hoc single sessions, fees will be at a slightly different rate from regular students. For J1 students : $200 for ad hoc 1:1 Individual Tuition, or $130 per student for Small Group Tuition (you need to find a friend to come with), per each ad hoc 2.5 hrs session. For J2 students : see table immediately below. Fees have to be paid in cash (not cheque) at the start (not end) of each ad hoc 2.5 hrs session. Scheduling subject to availability. Please note : for ad hoc Small Group Tuition sessions, all students in your group have to go through the same questions being discussed (students should take turns to ask your questions) together as a collaborative group. If each student only wants to focus on his/her own question from his/her own JC, please come for ad hoc 1:1 Individual Tuition instead.

Terms & Conditions
2. For Online Tuition, Fees must be paid out in full via PayNow before the start of the 1st session, and before the start of every 4 sessions. Fees must be paid in cash (not cheque or bank transfer), at the start (not end) of the 1st session, and at the start (not end) of every 4 sessions. Fees paid out are non-refundable. If a student forgets to bring his fees, the session has to be cancelled and rescheduled. Applies to all students, nothing personal.
3. Students must inform well in advance if there are any schedule changes. If a student fails to turn up for a scheduled session without adequate advance notice, the session is forfeited, and fees are non-refundable. Students must agree to always be contactable and to reply all smses and/or missed calls.
4. All missed sessions (regardless of reason, eg. school activities, medical appointments, family activities, etc) must be made up asap, and to be rescheduled in advance whenever possible (eg. bringing forward all sessions affected by school exams). To this end, all students are to specify a backup day for each week. Fees are to be paid every 4 weeks, or every 4 sessions, whichever is sooner, regardless of when the missed sessions are made up.
5. For Group Tuition (currently suspended indefinitely due to Singapore's Covid situation), all new students need to find at least 1 friend to form a subgroup to come with. All members of a subgroup must attend every session together. If one member of a subgroup cannot attend a session (eg. medical leave), the session is cancelled and must be made up asap, by all members of the subgroup together.
6. For Group Tuition (currently suspended indefinitely due to Singapore's Covid situation), I reserve the right to have another student subgroup be present at the same time, but we (ie. with all students' cooperation) will do our best to optimize scheduling and keep this to a minimum and/or only occasionally. So most of the time, we will schedule such that it will only be your own subgroup (ie. yourself and your friends) present during the sessions.
Thank you for accepting these Terms & Conditions, I look forward to helping you with your Chemistry soon!
