We once had a Maths private tutor who taught for 3 - 4 months only and left my child before the year end exam comes. A good and responsible tutor is one who wants and willing to stay on with the child till end of year and not leaving him/her in the lurch by giving excuses like schedule limitations and health reason etc. for not being able to continue teaching but subsequently finding other students to start group tuition. Yes group tuition earns you more income than one to one teaching but we are not paying you any lesser at $500 per month for 4 lessons 2 hours weekly! Looks like dollar and cent matters most to this tutor and not the responsibility and commitment. If can’t commit then don’t teach in the first place. This is definitely not passion for teaching. Just trying to make more money out of the demand for tuitions in Singapore.
