About Catalyst
Catalyst is a tuition centre based at 2 College Road, Singapore 169850, offering educational support across Singapore. The provider is KakiList verified, meaning operating details and contact channels have been confirmed by a real person. It holds a 4.8-star rating on Google, though this is based on only 5 reviews and should be treated as directional rather than conclusive. Pricing is indicated at the mid-range tier ($$).
When reaching out to Catalyst, it is worth enquiring about level and syllabus fit from the outset — whether your child follows the MOE curriculum, IB, IGCSE, or another framework will determine which programme is suitable. Ask whether classes are conducted in small groups or on a one-to-one basis, as this affects both pacing and price. Clarify whether a trial class is available before you commit to a term, what materials fees apply, and whether sessions are held in-person at College Road or offered online. Term commitment lengths and make-up class policies are also worth confirming before enrolment.
The most direct next step is to contact Catalyst via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to ask about availability for your child's level, request a trial class, and confirm the fee structure before committing to a term. Listing data is incomplete — contact Catalyst directly to confirm details.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Catalyst charge per session?›
Catalyst's pricing is indicated at the mid-range ($$) tier, but specific per-session rates are not publicly listed and should be confirmed directly with the centre. Tuition centres in Singapore typically charge on a per-session basis, as a monthly package, or as a full-term fee — it is worth asking which model applies and whether a trial class carries a separate, reduced fee. Additional costs to clarify include any materials or workbook fees, registration fees for new students, and whether sibling discounts or package deals are available. See the full tuition cost guide for Singapore →
Can I try a class before committing?›
Many tuition centres in Singapore offer a trial class, sometimes at a reduced fee or occasionally complimentary, to allow both the student and parents to assess fit before signing up for a full term. When attending a trial, consider whether the pace and difficulty level are appropriate for your child, whether the teaching style suits how your child learns, and whether the class size allows sufficient interaction with the tutor. If Catalyst offers a trial, use it to ask the tutor directly about their approach to the specific syllabus your child is following. Contact Catalyst via WhatsApp or phone to confirm the trial class policy and any associated cost before visiting.
What are the tutor's credentials at Catalyst?›
Specific tutor qualifications, NIE or MOE backgrounds, degree disciplines, or years of teaching experience are not listed publicly for Catalyst. When enquiring, it is reasonable to ask whether tutors have formal teaching qualifications or prior experience in MOE schools, and whether they are familiar with the specific syllabus — MOE, IB, IGCSE, or AP — relevant to your child's level. If the centre employs multiple tutors, ask who will be assigned to your child's class and whether consistency is maintained across sessions. Confirming credentials directly with Catalyst before committing to a term is advisable.
