Why a Singapore tutor

Singapore’s maths and science teaching, on Hong Kong time.

Arche Academy started in 2022 teaching Singapore’s own syllabus, where method and precision decide the grade. The same approach carries over to the IB and IGCSE: find the first principle that is missing, rebuild from it, then teach the exact answer structure the mark scheme rewards.

ESF secondary schools offer the IB Diploma, and many other international schools in Hong Kong follow either the IB or the British IGCSE route. We ask which programme, board and level your child is on, and teach to that syllabus rather than a general one.

What we teach
