4 Pillars of Success

Exceptional Tutors

Charismatic, engaging tutors who care for you

Immense care and efforts are taken to ensure our tutors are able to deliver what is expected of them. Out of every 20 applicants interviewed, only 1 will meet our stringent requirements. Onboarding tutors will be put through a mentorship programme with a senior tutor.

During weekly team meetings, tutors are equipped with the best teaching pedagogy, identifying common pitfalls students face and how to dissect complex Science concepts for effective learning.

Skills such as classroom management, effective communication and enhancing engagement with students are also widely discussed.

Proven Pedagogy

Application-based teaching

Your time is precious, and we want to maximise your learning. Scientific concepts are often complex, yet inter-linked and built upon one another. We help students master understanding by simplifying complicated concepts into layman’s terms.

Understand concepts alone doesn’t translate to effective question-solving. With a strong emphasis on application in exam-grade questions, our students are constantly challenged beyond their comfort zone to excel in their examinations.

Active recall

We believe that learning through constant questioning is the best way to remember information. Students are quizzed to answer questions in class. We have cultivated a safe and encouraging environment for students to actively participate, and not to be judged when making mistakes.

Effective Engagement

Appreciate the relevance of what is learnt

Students who actively engage with what they are studying tend to understand more, learn more, remember more, and better appreciate the relevance of what they have learned, as compared to passive learners.

By asking the right blend of questions, encouraging students and inspiring them through various ways, we invite our students into the process of learning and adopt a much more self-conscious approach to effective learning.

Results That Speak for Themselves

Felix Tseng

Dunman High School

Joining Making Sense is easily one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. I was blown away in that one lesson by the ease in which you helped us to realise concepts, link topics together and remember things. I think it’s safe to say that if you lectured in a school, no one would be skipping lectures ever again.

The teaching approach here focuses on higher-level thinking by challenging us with application questions which helped me to improve my results. Within a term, I was able to improve from failing to topping the class!
