      Actually are teachers from the same schools allowed to tutor the children?

      Nope Lilac66, that's strictly not allowed. Too much conflict of interest.

      I know some are teaching their students in the tuition centre.[/quote]Now I see where the conflict of interest lies, if this were true. :roll: Not 1-1, but still doesn't seem right. You mean current teachers can teach in tuition centres? .

      Thought it's private as in 1-1 or small group at teacher's or student's home.

        I heard from one mum she is trying to get one teacher in the same school to tutor her kids but must seek permission from the principal. I've not c her then, so don't know whether this is allowed anot.

        By right, NO.
        Teachers are not allowed to give tuition to kids from same school. If teacher does that, it is direct conflict.

          My dd1 teacher gives weaker students extra coaching FOC! She does it before school starts and during recess times. That's dedication!


          wah salute that teacher. hope she doesn't get burnt out

          Actually I thought this is like the norm :? My P5 and P4 FT and CL teachers will give tuition to the weaker students after school (AM session).

            Private tuition shouldn't be allowed, I suppose. However, It will be strange if teachers aren't allowed to do it on 1-1 basis after school within the school vicinity, at no extra charge. I suppose you mean the former?

              My daughter in P2 has remedial for English and math after school hours.

              I am grateful for that small group coaching...bcos her teacher knows her weaknesses. Furthermore, my gal doesn't have tuition.

              Dedicated teachers deserve a raise. :rahrah:

                    My spouse, who is a teacher, offered free tuition for the weaker students but guess what? They did not turn up! :mad:


                    He also used to give free tuition to students who have muscular dystrophy at AWWA.

                      the irony and insult right? the truth is, there is a correlation between the weaker students and the problem students, assuming that those kids did not want to turn up on purpose. let these kids be, if offer to help and they don't turn up, better spend that time on other students who appreciate it more.

                        Geez the kids are so oblivious to what they're missing out. Perhaps some of these students have mental barriers built up, and will need more than the offer of free remedial.
