Founders

Melanie Lim has more than ten years of experience as a tutor having graduated with a Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Teaching from the National Institute of Education. Her last role as Manager of the Science Curriculum Unit in The Learning Lab saw her leading curriculum development, managing a team of curriculum specialists and teaching mainstream as well as GEP students. Believing Island Tutors is a better way to support students, she taps on her extensive knowledge to develop a rigorous curriculum for the latest MOE syllabus.

Leanne Teo is a business owner and former Ministry employee with a focus on branding, marketing, and communication. As a parent, she grew concerned with the amount of time children spend on travelling to enrichment classes, and conceptualised Island Tutors as the best way to deliver an engaging curriculum with excellent tutors, while easing the burden on children.

Our Teachers

We have a diverse team of tutors with high academic achievements and various teaching experiences.

Island Tutors meticulously selects and trains tutors with nurturing, patient and engaging dispositions. We equip them with our teaching pedagogy and the most updated content knowledge.

Supported by our team of curriculum developers and administrative staff, our tutors only need to focus on their students’ learning experience, ensuring students get the most out of every lesson.

The questions in the booklets are exactly the ones my child found difficult in the school test! Your questions came out in their test papers!

It's very fun. I like my teacher and I like it when he brings experiments for us to do during the lesson.

I really appreciate the convenience of Island Tutors. When the usual teacher couldn't make it during the exam period, they arranged a relief teacher. Tuition agencies I used to find tutors in the past could not do that for me. It's really like having a tuition centre at home!

I love the notes! They help me understand the topics and pass my tests. I like to do the online activities with my mum as a break from studying too!
