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.
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.
