Preparing Students for Academic Excellence for IGCSE & IB

We built KS Academia Prep around a simple observation:

Students rarely struggle because of the two hours spent in tuition each week.

They struggle because of what happens between lessons.

Without structure, accountability and consistent practice, each lesson risks becoming another revision session instead of genuine progress.

That’s why we’ve developed a learning system that extends beyond the classroom, helping students build momentum throughout the week so every lesson moves them forward.

IGCSE EconomicsIB Economics HL

아이비 경제 믿고 여기서 들으세요. The best econs tution you can find in Singapore. I started taking lessons from here since IGCSE econs all the way upto IB econs. I successfully managed to gain both a 7 in HL econs and A for econs extended essay. The active interactions between the tutor and students as well as the top tier teaching skills of the tutor made my experience here truly memorable.

IB EconomicsJason Low

Taking classes from Jason tutor was an amazing experience. He focuses on both the 'intuitive understanding of economic concepts' and 'the practical methods to score high marks in the actual exam'. He is also very capable of planning lessons based on the individual needs of the student, which proves that he thoroughly observes each students for their weaknesses and capabilities. Thanks for Jason, I was not only able to get a 7 for economics on the IB Final exam, but was able to develop an economic mindset and logic and take it with me even after graduating highschool.

But afterall, he is passionate of what he teaches and the impact he gives to his students, which is what inspired me most of all.

IB EconomicsJason Low

I joined Jason's IB econs class during Grade 11 and it's been really helpful! I was always very engaged during the lessons and the way Jason teaches is very efficient. I maintained a 7 throughout the IB course and ended up getting a 7 on my final exam as well. Thanks to Jason, I didn't have to prepare too much for finals - the weekly lessons itself are enough to pull you through! Totally recommend if you want to score high or if you are struggling with econs.

IB Economics HLJason Low

在KS Academia prep的学习体验真的非常棒!Jason老师的教学方法特别有帮助。他不仅会耐心讲解经济学的知识和理论,还会帮学生剖析答题技巧和学习方法。他从不要求学生死记硬背,而是通过思维导图和逻辑链条的方式,帮助我们把知识点理解透彻、记得牢固。他教给我的论文结构、答题技巧、IA写作方法和高效记忆法,不仅让我在IB HL经济中拿到了7分,而且这些学习方法也让我在其他科目上同样受益。很高兴能遇到像Jason老师这样认真负责、真心为学生着想的老师。通过他的课程,我不仅取得了理想的成绩,养成了良好的学习习惯,更对经济这门学科产生了浓厚的兴趣。另外,Jason老师的押题也非常准!他总能提前预判考试的重点内容,帮助学生做好最充分的考前准备。真心推荐给所有正在学习IB经济的同学!

EconomicsJason Low

Although I spent less than a year learning from Jason, his tutoring has been the most enriching and beneficial for me. From the start, I wasn't a very competent humanities student, and getting the highest grade seemed completely out of reach.

Then, I was introduced to Jason by a friend in JC. His lessons helped to bolster my conceptual understanding of the principles of Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, and his way of teaching even brought me to enjoy the topic of International Economics, which originally was my least favourite topic.

Later on, I was able study more efficiently with Jason's notes compared to using the rather verbose textbooks recommended by school. Jason's notes and summary courses are terse and also very enriching, and they left room for additional real-world examples that I could even use in my essays.

Eventually, this allowed me to secure a substantially higher score for my school tests and assignments, and I noticed significant improvement in my understanding and participation in Economics classes in school as well.

Furthermore, Jason's way of using real-world examples and making different sample questions to cover all the topics trained me to strategize before the exam season. His timed practices also helped to optimize my in-exam pace, which a lot of students (including myself) were struggling with.

Ultimately, I noticed massive improvement from near-failing to a top grade, proving Jason's resources and tutoring skills to be exceptionally useful and effective in improving one's economics skills.

IB EconomicsJason Low

I took IB Econ lessons from Jason. He was very clear, patient, and knew exactly how to guide me through the IB. He also had a strong understanding of both IB requirements and Economics, so he was always able to answer my questions clearly and in detail. His explanations helped me understand difficult concepts much better, and he also provided classes for IA, which were rly important in order to achieve good grades. I recommend his classes for IB Econ students. Best in sg

I learned IGCSE Economics and IB Economics SL from my tutor Jason. His explanations were always clear and he provided students with appropriate examples that helped me to understand theories better. Thanks to his lessons, Economics was not a problem at all for me in my IB finals.

I've been a student of Ms. Ara since 5th grade. I am now a rising sophomore who has successfully met all expectations of the math standards each year. I have seen KS Academia Prep grow into an educational space that supports, respects, and pushes students into trying their best. Each and every teacher in the hagwon has a distinct passion for teaching, and I can tell that students go home learning something each day.

Great teacher who engages properly with students, both in and out of the classroom. In their economics programme, concepts are conveyed in a fun and understandable manner, and salient in real life contexts. Will recommend here for tuition!

One centre, IGCSE through IB

Most tuition centres see students once a week.

For the other 160+ hours, students are left on their own.

At KS Academia Prep, structured study sessions, Teaching Assistant support and regular accountability ensure students continue making meaningful progress between lessons, so lesson time is spent advancing rather than catching up.
