FAQ for Chinese Tuition Rates

How Much Do I Expect to Pay For Chinese Tuition?

The cost of Chinese Tuition ranges from $25 to $130 per hour, and it varies depending on the Chinese Tutors’ experience and qualifications. These rates are determined based on extensive data gathered from a diverse group of Chinese Tutors in Singapore. We continually update our Chinese Tuition rate chart to reflect the current market rates in the Chinese tutoring industry.

Can I Dismiss A Tutor If I Find Him/Her Unsuitable?

In the unlikely event that you are not satisfied with the provided tutor, just let us know. We will then terminate the tutoring arrangement with that tutor. Please ensure that all tuition fees due are paid to us, and we will allocate the tutor’s portion accordingly. Following this, you can choose to request a replacement tutor or discontinue your tutoring arrangement with us.

How Do You Determine The Chinese Tuition Rates?

Our Chinese Tutors determine their own Chinese Tuition rates. We do not establish the Chinese Tuition fees but offers an accurate representation of the current market rate for Chinese Tuition services. Each Chinese Tutor sets their Chinese Tuition fees based on various factors, including experience, qualifications, and any associated travel expenses.

May I Know How To Pay For The Lessons?

Payment is due to us at the end of the second week of lesson. We offer various payment methods, including PayNow and Bank Transfer. Starting from the third week of lessons, parents have the option to make tuition fee payments directly to the tutor using a mutually agreed-upon payment method, which typically includes options like Cash, PayNow, or Bank Transfer.

Do You Charge An Agent Fee?

We provide our matching services to clients at no cost. Clients are only obligated to cover the fees for lessons that have been scheduled and conducted.

We do not charge GST, so there is absolutely no hidden cost for our service.

Is There Any Commitment For Engaging A Tutor?

Engaging a tutor with us does not entail any long-term commitments. Clients have the freedom to discontinue the services of a tutor at any time if they are not satisfied.
