Leading A-Level General Paper Tuition for JC and IP Students in Singapore

Key Learning Objectives of our GP Tuition for Junior College:

Our specialized A Level General Paper tuition programme is designed specifically for Junior College students in Singapore. We focus on developing the three core competencies that Cambridge examiners assess in the A Level GP examination:


Building up their writing skills by learning how to express their thoughts and opinions in an organised and fluent manner.

Honing their comprehension skills by learning how to identify question types and recognise corresponding question requirements.

Improving their summary skills by learning how to locate relevant information within a text and summarise content in a coherent manner.

If you have been feeling stumped and resigned by junior college GP, despair no longer! It is never too early or too late to begin preparing for A Level GP, and what’s important is to not resign yourself to an unchangeable fate but take the steps to begin improving your GP sometime, somewhere! It goes without saying that A Level GP is one of the trickiest subjects to prepare for. Students are often overwhelmed by the various components tested, and are often stumped as to how to improve at each of them. For many students, especially those who struggle with the language, they resign themselves to not preparing for A Level GP at all, believing that their low standard of English is fixed and immutable and will thus always translate to Cs or Ds.

A-Level GP: Fewer Components, But Deeper Learning And Broader Perspectives

With seemingly fewer components in A Level GP, it can be easy to assume that A Level  GP is simpler. However, our A Level GP tuition teachers are aware of the academic  requirements and are prepared to deepen learning in these areas. Through discussions  on critical issues with our thematic approach, students will broaden their perspectives and open their eyes to the authentic impact English has in their lives.

Our Junior College GP tuition emphasizes not just memorization of content, but deep understanding of issues and development of sophisticated analytical skills. Students learn how to construct arguments that demonstrate critical thinking, draw on relevant evidence, and persuasively present their viewpoints—exactly what distinguishes A grade from B grade responses in General Paper A Levels.

I feel very blessed to have found Augustine's English tuition centre. The enrolment is fuss free. There is no deposit or complicated terms and conditions to confuse busy parents like me. My gal has been with this centre since P6 in 2019 till now. She is more than willing to travel from south all the way to the East to attend Augustine's English classes and without fail. She finds him very engaging and motivating enough to keep her interest in learning English going and to the extent that she fills up her bookshelf with English storybooks, using her own pocket money. She has smoothly progressed to sec 4 now, with consistent good score in English. If my gal manages to go to JC next year and if there is still English tuition class open for JC level, she will definitely continue her tuition in this centre! Keep going, Augustine!

very lively class.
teacher was fun and understanding.
very useful lesson materials that will enhance your english/gp skills.

Visible progress after 4 months. Uses incentives to motivate students. Young teacher but seems ok. Worth a try if you dont want to send to the big boys center which sometimes can be a hit or miss depending on the teacher itself. O'level is still 18 months away. Once the after o'level results are confirmed I will likely revise the rating.
