Private tuition or one-to-one tuition in Malaysia is a thriving industry. Retrenched professionals and retired teachers have even set up tuition centre in residential area to earn a living. When students are struggling to keep up and improve their grades on exams and tests, parents will encourage and at times, forced their kids to attend tuition classes during their free time particularly during the weekends. From English Language to Mathematics, Science to Geography, you name it, they’ve got it!

Years ago, parents would only send their kids to tuition classes if they have a hard time understanding and grasping certain subject. However, the trend has clearly changed for parents send their kids to tuition classes seven days in a week even when these children are outstanding and top students in class. Some blamed it on the exam-oriented education system in Malaysia. These top students are forced to attend tuition classes to improve their already good grades.

Realizing the potential to earn good money from private tuition, some of these tutors simply jump on the bandwagon to increase their income. These individuals have no diploma or degree to qualify as tutors to coach students. But no doubt, tuition is a booming industry in the country.
