About Explorer Academy

Families typically begin by reaching out via WhatsApp, phone, or the online enquiry form to discuss the subject, level, and syllabus requirements for their child. It is worth clarifying whether the programme follows the MOE syllabus or another framework such as IB or IGCSE, and whether lessons are conducted in small groups or on a one-to-one basis. Asking about a trial class before committing to a full term is standard practice and a sensible way to gauge teaching style, pace, and how well the content matches your child's current level. Location and online delivery options are also worth confirming at this stage.
To take the next step, contact Explorer Academy directly via WhatsApp or phone to ask about subject availability, current class schedules, and whether a trial class can be arranged before any term commitment is made.

This tuition centre has been such a great help for my girl! They provide extra test papers, bite-sized notes, and even additional supervised self-revision classes all for free. A big shoutout to Miss Kay!! Thank you for always checking in and giving timely updates on my child’s progress. After every major test like the semester test or prelims, Miss Kay will request for the papers to be brought in so she can review the mistakes and identify which concepts my child isn’t confident with. She really goes the extra mile for the students, paying extra attention to weaker topics and even buying food for the kids sometimes. It’s really reassuring for parents to know that our children are in such good hands! Apart from the usual lessons, the centre also organises fun activities like movie sessions to let students chill and have fun (for free) and lab sessions that are available at a small extra cost. Honestly, this tuition centre gives you so much value, you’re paying so little but getting so many benefits. Highly recommended! 💯 Sorry for taking the image from google! Really wanna to do a good review for the centre!

My daughter Rebecca started with EA two years ago. Although she did ok in her PSLE Science through a private tutor, she did not enjoy the learning process. With EA, she has been motivated to attend the sessions because of how Ms Joanne engaged her in her learning through a clear and structured method. She faced some ups and downs in Science in Secondary 1 and 2 but prevailed with a strong result. We thank EA for such valuable support.

We are very grateful to Ms Kay for her dedicated teaching and guidance. She has been very patient in helping my son catch up with his science lessons and always takes the time to explain concepts clearly. We truly appreciate that she offers free consultations whenever needed and pays extra attention to the topics he struggles with, ensuring he gains confidence and understanding. Thank you, Ms Kay, for your continuous support and encouragement – it has made a real difference in his learning journey.

She is very patient and will make sure you understand the topics before moving on. When I had my first class, I could already tell that she hopes her students at utmost importance. She always pushes up to go for remedial lesson when needed. I thank her deeply with all my heart for teaching me. I will say that she is the best teacher of the year

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Explorer Academy charge per session?›
Explorer Academy is priced at the mid-range ($$) tier, though specific per-session or monthly package fees are not publicly listed and should be confirmed directly with the centre. Tuition centres in Singapore typically charge on a per-session basis, as part of a monthly package, or by term — and the rate usually varies by subject, level, and whether the format is group or one-to-one. Ask about any trial class fee, whether learning materials are included or charged separately, and whether sibling or package discounts apply. Some centres offer a reduced rate for the first session. See the full tuition centre cost guide for Singapore →
Can I try a class before committing?›
Many tuition centres in Singapore offer a trial class, and it is reasonable to ask Explorer Academy whether this option is available and what it costs. A trial session lets you assess whether the teaching pace suits your child's current level, whether the tutor's explanation style works for your child, and whether the class size allows sufficient individual attention. Come prepared with your child's most recent school results or assessment papers so the tutor can gauge the appropriate starting point. After the session, consider whether your child felt engaged and whether the content covered was appropriately pitched — neither too easy nor overwhelming.
What are the tutors' credentials?›
Specific tutor qualifications for Explorer Academy are not listed in the available information, so it is advisable to ask directly when you make contact. Useful questions include whether tutors hold a degree in the relevant subject, whether any have an NIE teaching qualification or prior MOE school experience, and how many years of tuition experience they carry. Also confirm which syllabus the programme is aligned to — MOE, IB, IGCSE, or AP — to ensure it matches your child's school curriculum. A centre with a 4.9 rating across 77 Google reviews suggests families have found the instruction satisfactory, but verifying credentials directly gives you a clearer picture before committing to a term.
