Our Happy Clients
EXCELLENT Based on 49 reviews Posted on Wilert GohTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One of the most dedicated and passionate teachers I've known. My child loved his lessons and one major plus point is he listens patiently to every question raised by the student and explains in such clear details the student understands fully. I have seen how different the Science exam questions are different from our time and it is something Mr Daniel place high importance on, to tackle these questions tactfully and not just memorising standard answersPosted on Wollie LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My child Cherish wasn’t performing to “above average” level for her P5 EOY (2024) science and we thought we better engage a good tutor for her PSLE next year (2025). After reading some reviews, we decided to engage Daniel for his professional service in tutoring science. I can honestly state here. Daniel is a very consistent teacher in his own way of passing current and useful science knowledge and tips to students. A very focus teacher who knows what to prioritise and focus for his students to achieve good exam marks. And I’m very proud to share here is, my child achieved AL2 for her science today! From typically in the range of AL5-4 from her P5 results to AL4-3 for her P6 sch tests and exams to AL2 in PSLE. Apart from my child’s effort, I have to sincerely thank Daniel for his consistent effort for his class and to my child. Strongly recommended for those parents looking to improve their child science results next year! Thank you Daniel 😀🍻Posted on SheerlockTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mr Daniel Tay is one of the most committed and dedicated Science teacher we have had the privilege to meet. His lessons are well structured and he takes time to explain difficult science concepts to the students. His notes and worksheets are very comprehensive and hone the kid’s skills in answering tough open ended questions. We truly appreciate Daniel and will absolutely recommend him to any student looking to improve their Science. 🙂Posted on Andrew TangTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Tr. Daniel is very knowledgable in Science. He know the curriculum well. My son has improved in his OEQ greatly under his guidance too. Overall, I am very elated with my son acedemic progress since he embarked on the tutoring sessions under Tr. Daniel. Thank you and hope that my son can continue to do well in his science.Posted on Sheila PansyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would like to thank Daniel for guiding my son . He did not do well for his WA1, Daniel did a 1-1 and went through his papers with him . With Daniel’s guidance , he did very well for his WA2.. I hope my son will continue to do will for his PSLE next year . Thank you Daniel , a very consistent , hardworking and passionate teacher ! We are so glad we found you !Posted on Raine LimTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mr Daniel Tay is engaging during his online lessons using various tools that speaks to the young Gen Alpha crowd. He ensures they are attentive in the classes by calling upon every student frequently to read and answer questions. While my son understands key concepts generally before starting tuition, he now gets the exam answering techniques better and continues to improve his science knowledge, scoring an AL1 in year end exams from previous AL5! Hope this stays till PSLE! Thanks again to Mr Tay!Posted on ShaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 2 grades up in just 8 months! (From AL5 to AL3) Mr Daniel’s effective strategies, spot-on phrases/keywords, and clear guidance have made a remarkable difference for our child. Having always been interested in Science, she used to struggle during exams due to the lack of proper phrases and keywords - and it left her feeling demotivated. As an ex-PSLE marker, Mr Daniel knows exactly what examiners are looking for. Every lesson is purposeful and directed, helping students focus on what truly matters. His classroom management is also commendable - he handles students tactfully and keeps lessons smooth and engaging. With his support, our child regained her motivation and performed her very best in the end-of-year exam. For us as parents, it’s been such a relief as we no longer have to keep searching for the “right” tutor. Mr Daniel is that tutor, who delivers. 👏🏻Posted on chia meilingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son Xander improved from AL 5 to AL 2 in Primary 5 Science under Mr. Daniel Tay’s guidance. Xander always understood the key concepts but struggled to meet PSLE marking expectations. Mr. Daniel connects naturally with today’s Gen Alpha learners, making Science engaging and relatable. Thank you, Mr. Daniel, for helping Xander gain confidence and love learning Science!Posted on Gillian chewTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m very pleased with Darius’s progress in Science. Since attending Mr Tay’s classes, he has shown greater interest and confidence in learning. He now understands key concepts much better and is able to answer questions accurately. It’s wonderful to see his hard work paying off — moving from AL3 at P4 to AL1 at P5. I would like to thank Mr Tay for his patient guidance, effective teaching, and for providing Darius with constant practice and clear explanations of scientific concepts. Your support has truly helped him gain confidence and excel in the subject.

Parents of Sean Lee P6Hi, Teacher Daniel Tay. I would like to say THANK YOU very much for teaching and guiding Sean in the past four months (May-Sep 2025). I vividly remember when Sean just joined you in May'2025 he just barely passed (AL6), under your guidance we noticed Sean result was consistently improved from AL6 to AL5 and pre-lim Sean got (AL4).
As a parent my greatest joy is, Sean found his confidence and he start to like love science subject more compared to last time. If We get to know you earlier I believe he will be able to score AL1 in PSLE.
