How to post a tuition request
The KiddoSG app is launching soon. This guide shows how it will work.

Posting a request is the fastest way to find a tutor. Instead of messaging tutors one by one, you describe what you need, and qualified tutors apply to you.
Step by step
- Go to Requests and tap Post a request.
- Choose the child, subject and level (e.g. P5 Maths, or Sec 3 A-Math at G3).
- Choose where: home tuition (pick your nearest MRT or town), or online. We only show tutors your town, never your address.
- Choose when: the days and times that suit you, e.g. Tue/Thu after 6pm.
- Set your budget per hour. The app shows the typical range for that level and tutor type to help you decide.
- Add a short note, e.g. "Weak in problem sums, PSLE next year". Don't include your child's full name or school.
- Tap Post.
What happens next
- Matching tutors get an alert. Most requests get their first application within a few hours.
- Each application shows the tutor's rate, experience, verified badges, reviews and a short message.
- You see every applicant. It's free for every parent.
Tips for better applications
- Be specific about topics, e.g. "fractions and ratio" rather than "Maths".
- Give a realistic budget. Very low budgets get fewer applications.
- Reply to tutors within a day. Good tutors get booked quickly.
