In Singapore’s competitive education landscape, it’s no secret that tuition plays a major role in helping children reach their academic potential. Many parents want to provide the best support possible — but with so many options out there, one key question often arises:
How much should you really be spending on tuition?
Quality over quantity
The truth is, higher fees don’t always guarantee better results. What truly matters is the quality of teaching, the care for each student, and how well the programme fits your child’s needs. A good tuition programme doesn’t just drill exam questions — it builds understanding, confidence, and a genuine love for learning.
Set a realistic education budget
A healthy benchmark is to keep tuition spending within 10–15% of your household income. This ensures that your child receives meaningful academic support without stretching the family finances. Remember, consistency matters more than cost — sustainable tuition allows children to progress steadily throughout the year.
Seek value, not just prestige
Some tuition centres focus heavily on branding and marketing, but value is found where effective teaching meets affordability. A smaller, student-focused centre can often provide more personalised attention and measurable improvement — all without the premium price tag.
At Oxkids Learning Centre, we believe that quality education should be accessible to every family. Our programmes are designed by passionate educators who prioritise understanding over rote learning — and we keep our fees affordable so parents can invest wisely in their child’s future.
Because great learning shouldn’t come at a great cost.
