In Singapore, Science in secondary school follows the MOE syllabus from Secondary 1 to 4/5, covering both lower and upper secondary levels.
In the early years, students take an integrated programme combining Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, focusing on foundational concepts, experimental techniques, and scientific inquiry. By upper secondary, they specialise in Pure or Combined Sciences, deepening their knowledge in preparation for GCE O-Level or N-Level examinations. Alongside content mastery, students develop essential skills such as problem-solving, data analysis, and applying scientific concepts to real-world situations—critical for academic success and future studies.
At our tuition centre in Newton, we help secondary school students go beyond memorisation to truly understand scientific concepts and their applications.
TLS Tutorials is known for tailoring lessons to match each student’s learning pace and strengths, ensuring no one is left behind. Our teachers break complex topics into clear, manageable steps while encouraging students to question, explore, and connect ideas. This approach not only strengthens exam readiness but also nurtures curiosity, problem-solving skills, and a genuine appreciation for Science.

Our Science tuition helps lower secondary students build a strong foundation in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology through integrated learning.
Lessons are closely aligned with the MOE syllabus, covering topics such as laboratory safety, measurement techniques, energy, forces, matter, and life processes. By linking concepts to real-world contexts, like how body systems work together or why environmental changes occur, we encourage curiosity and independent thinking. This stage focuses on developing scientific literacy and problem-solving skills.
At this stage, students progress into either Pure or Combined Sciences, exploring each subject with greater depth. Our classes are designed to strengthen understanding of theories, formulas, and scientific models while guiding students on how to apply them effectively in assessments.
Whether studying topics such as atomic structure, chemical reactions, motion, or human anatomy, students are taught to break down complex problems into clear, manageable steps. This method not only supports strong exam performance but also builds lasting confidence in scientific reasoning.
At TLS Tutorials, we know that students approach Science with different strengths, interests, and learning speeds. That’s why our secondary Science tuition lessons are built around a personalised learning framework rather than a fixed, one-size-fits-all model. From secondary 1’s Science syllabus to the specialised subjects at secondary 3 and 4, each programme is carefully structured to match your child’s individual needs.
Our customised lesson materials and targeted guidance ensure that every student can strengthen their understanding and develop the confidence to advance further down the road in their O-Level Sciences.
Pain Point: Students often find it difficult to grasp and apply scientific concepts due to large class sizes that limit personalised attention, overlooking their individual learning needs. This issue is compounded by the limited availability of parents to guide and provide further educational support at home.
Solution: Our secondary Science tuition lessons are held in small groups, with a maximum of four students each. This small class size allows our tutors to give targeted attention to each student, ensuring thorough understanding and support while promoting an interactive and collaborative classroom atmosphere.
Pain Point: The one-size-fits-all teaching approach provided in traditional classroom settings may overlook the unique learning styles of each student, making it difficult for them to absorb and retain key concepts. This mismatch can lead to diminished confidence as students struggle to keep pace with their peers.
Solution: Rather than adhering to a standardised teaching model, we personalise our educational strategies to align with the individual strengths and preferences of each student. This customised approach ensures our secondary Science tuition lessons resonate more deeply, fostering a richer, more effective learning experience that boosts both comprehension and confidence.
Pain Point: Many students struggle to keep pace with the rapid progression of Science lessons, which may often lead to them feeling overwhelmed and unable to fully grasp key topics within the limited time. This situation contributes to increased stress during exam preparations.
Solution: We thoroughly analyse each student’s weaknesses and assess these against the key topics they are expected to master. By focusing our teaching on these essential areas, we ensure the most efficient use of study time, directly targeting the gaps that most impact their academic performance.

Star 672025-08-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Started here in P4 Math, grade has remained consistent at A*. Continued with TLS academy until sec 4 . O Level A Math grade was A1. Teachers here are kind and understanding, they are adaptable and are able to adapt their teaching style to help me with understanding content. Would highly recommend people to join their classes. Karin Kan2025-08-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My P6 daughter started math tuition at TLS this year and enjoys coming to class each week. She says this is her favourite tuition class. Ms Esther and Abel have periodically run diagnostics tests on her math abilities which really help in identifying the areas where she needs to work on. I see her math grades improving and am hopeful she will do well in the PSLE. Tania Han2025-07-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mrs Esther is extremely patient and caring, I went from a 46% to a 87% in less than 5 months! The centre is very accommodating and I would highly recommend Sherry Lim2025-07-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter enjoys her lessons at TLS Tutorials which is specifically tailored to her syllabus based on her needs by Teacher Esther. The class is small, personable and conducive for learning and interaction with the teacher.

I couldn’t recommend them more highly. Most tuition centres are about revision, homework and test preparation TLS does that and more; they have monthly diagnostics test and check ins with the parents which is helpful for us to understand our children’s progress. Most importantly through these interactions, you feel they truly have the heart for your kids not just academically but also for their well being ! James S2025-03-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've seen a complete transformation in our daughters' attitude towards Maths since they started tuition here! They now look forward to their Maths lessons, which is a testament to the engaging and effective teaching methods used. We're grateful for Ms Giana's dedication and passion for teaching Maths and Abel's passion for caring for the students. Highly recommend! Jing Ren Tan2025-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent Education System that focuses on Student's Individual Needs and Customizing every lesson based on the student's own pace rather than the school's pace. I used to barely pass Physics and Chemistry due to lagging behind on the syllabus but Mrs Esther and Mrs Giana helped to strengthen my content significantly to the point that I achieved an A1 for combined sciences for O levels. Mrs Esther especially played a large role in building my confidence and is the main reason I could've done so well. Aiko Kitazawa2024-12-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined TSL just a few months before my O Levels. When I first started I felt lost and lacked confidence in my math and sciences. However with Mrs.Esthers support I began to see improvements. She was incredibly patient and took the time to focus on the areas I was struggling with. The small class sizes made sure that I received individual attention, and the worksheets and notes provided were very useful for my revision and practice. This support allowed me to go into my O Levels feeling much more prepared and confident.
