our values and principles

At AE, we are driven by a shared passion for empowering students to achieve their academic goals. Run by students from prestigious institutions such as NUS Medicine and NUS Law, we bring a unique blend of academic rigor and a deep understanding of modern learning needs. Having graduated from these courses ourselves (i.e. A Levels, IB), we are confident that we can make a meaningful difference in each of our student’s educational journey.

STUDENT-centered approach

Our foremost priority will always be the needs of our students. We believe that every learner is unique, with distinct strengths, weaknesses and learning styles. That’s why AE offers:

  • Individualised or small group tutoring, ensuring that our students receive the personalised attention they deserve

  • By focusing on the specific academic needs and goals of each students, we tailor our lessons to ensure maximum understanding and engagement.

  • Our tutors prioritise clear communication and quick responses to queries, making themselves readily available to support students both inside and outside of lesson time.

comfortable learning environment

We understand that learning is most effective when students feel comfortable and supported. At AE, our tutors go beyond simply delivering academic content — they are dedicated to being approachable, empathetic and responsive to students’ needs. Wherever possible, we will match tutors with students from the same school. This ensures that our tutors can truly relate to the specific challenges that their students face, whether it’s dealing with school-specific curriculum nuances or exam pressures. By sharing similar experiences and fostering a strong tutor-student relationship, our tutors can offer valuable insights and guidance that resonate with their students on a personal level, making learning a more enjoyable experience.

Academic excellence and commitment

At AE, we value academic excellence and are dedicated to providing high-quality rigorous tutoring. Not only are our tutors academically accomplished, but they also bring real-world experience and insights from their ongoing studies in some of the competitive fields in the country. Our tutors bring more than just textbook knowledge; they are familiar with the rigorous academic expectations of both the IB and A Level programs and understand the nuances of the curriculum.

For the IB Program, with its emphasis on inquiry-based learning, critical thinking and global perspectives, it requires a tutor who can nurture not just subject knowledge, but also the development of research, analysis and writing skills.


Conversely, the A Level Program, which requires an exam-focused approach, it demands a deep understanding of subject content, as well as strong exam techniques and time management strategies.

Our tutors know the key to excelling in each of these programs. This allows them to effectively guide students through the distinct challenges these programs present, developing students with the essential skills to excel.
