We foster an environment where students can challenge themselves and uncover their hidden potential because we believe that education is a path of self-discovery and exploration.

Founder’s Message

When I started Explorer Academy, I wanted to build more than just a tuition centre. I wanted to create a place where students are guided with both heart and honesty. Where they are encouraged, challenged, and taught to take ownership of their learning.

Every lesson is designed around three core pillars: Learn to Learn, Learn to Understand, and Learn to Grow.
We teach students how to learn — to build habits, discipline, and ownership.
We guide them to understand deeply — by connecting science to real life, so every concept makes sense.
And we help them grow — by embracing challenges, learning from mistakes, and realising that progress takes effort.

There is a quiet joy in guiding students closely, celebrating their wins, but also holding them accountable when they slip. Growth doesn’t happen in comfort; it happens in moments of challenge, reflection, and courage. Watching that shift, when a student moves from “I can’t” to “I did,” is what makes teaching so meaningful to me.

Because to me, education isn’t just about grades. It’s about shaping learners who are curious, grounded, and unafraid to put in the work to become their best selves.

Exam Paper Review

Submit your school papers for review after each exam and together we spot strengths and learning gaps, decode tricky questions and exam techniques and plan what to focus on next term.

Every exam becomes a valuable learning opportunity

1-to-1
Clarity Consultation

A one-to-one consultation where teachers help students to set clear learning goals, receive targeted coaching on weak areas and map out an action plan for success.

It’s a personalised guidance that turns weaknesses into strengths.

SCI-CORE Profilier

A personalised progress summary highlighting strengths, areas to improve, and clear action steps for the term. Unlike school reports that come only at the end, ours is shared before major exams so students can act early. Parents may also book a call with the tutor to discuss the profile in detail.

It’s not just a report — it’s a roadmap to improvement.

SCI Masterclass

Focused revision sessions on key topics taught in the term. Each Masterclass reinforces understanding, sharpens mastery, and strengthens long-term retention that help students feel confident and exam-ready.



LAB + Experience

Our Secondary LAB+ help students gain confidence handling lab equipment, mastering practical skills, and preparing for Lower Secondary and O-Level practical exams.

For Primary levels, fun sensory experiments connect directly to classroom topics that builds curiosity, reinforcing scientific keywords, and processing skills and answering technique framework. Each child also receives a take-home lab kit to continue exploring Science beyond the classroom!

R.E.A.L Methodology

Recall → Explain → Apply → Link
Our step-by-step approach breaks tough concepts into simple, bite-sized parts. Using active recall and spaced repetition, students build stronger memory and deeper understanding.

Once students understand the concept, we guide them through the right thought process to apply their knowledge and connect ideas across topics. This helps them see the bigger picture and makes Science logical, meaningful, and easier to master.
