Recommended by IP families across Singapore
Future Academy has grown primarily through referrals from parents and students. We focus on clear teaching, structured practice and helpful feedback for IP students. Many families recommend us to friends and schoolmates.
Many of our new IP students come from parent referrals and word-of-mouth recommendations.
Parents from RGS recommend us to other RGS parents. Hwa Chong families tell other Hwa Chong families. RI parents share our name with neighbours whose children attend RI. These referrals usually happen for one reason: lessons are structured, explanations are clear, and students learn how to handle tutorials and exams with more confidence.
Raffles Girls’ School (RGS) Success Stories
Our support for RGS and IP students is delivered by Future Academy’s teaching team, led by Mr Jason Lau and Ms Yvonne Chen. Classes are assigned based on availability, and all teachers follow the same lesson structure and standards. Here is what some of our students have shared:
Nicole L. — IP Year 2 Student
IP Mathematics | Ms Yvonne Chen (Braddell)
Outcome: From remedial to A grade within one year
The Challenge:
Nicole was stuck in math remedial in Year 2. She tried studying earlier and doing extra practice, but her grades barely moved — she felt her results had hit a ceiling.
The Solution:
Ms Chen’s team provided structured concept sheets, worked examples, and targeted practice questions. With lesson recordings available online, Nicole could review missed content and revisit difficult topics at her own pace.
The Results:
Within a year, Nicole’s grades bounced back to A. She moved out of remedial and went on to tackle challenging topics like trigonometry and differentiation with confidence.
“I realised I made the right decision to come to Future Academy. Within a year my grades bounced back to A, mostly due to the help I got from Ms Chen.”
— Nicole L. (IP Year 2 Student, Braddell)
Hannah T. — IP Math Student
IP Mathematics | Ms Yvonne Chen (Bugis)
Outcome: B grades to straight A’s in 2 terms
The Challenge:
Hannah was stuck at B grade and finding it hard to improve despite effort. She needed more clarity on concepts and a structured way to approach challenging questions.
The Solution:
Ms Chen’s lessons focused on building clarity around each concept using a hybrid learning format. The engaging, structured approach helped Hannah stay consistent and motivated across each term.
The Results:
Hannah went from B grades to straight A’s in just 2 terms — one of the fastest improvements our Bugis team has seen.
“Ms Chen has helped me pull my grades up from B to straight A’s in a matter of 2 terms. The environment is very conducive for learning and they try to make the lessons as engaging as possible.”
— Hannah T. (RGS Year 4 Student)

Why IP Families Recommend Future Academy
When parents recommend us to other IP families, they often mention these practical reasons:
A teaching team you can trust
Our teaching team is led by Mr Jason Lau (former Head of Mathematics Department at Hwa Chong Institution; NIE-trained; Master of Science) and Ms Yvonne Chen (former Raffles Girls’ School teacher; NIE-trained; 15 years of teaching experience). They set the lesson structure and standards used across the team.
True IP school specialisation
Our teaching team includes former IP school teachers. That experience helps us understand the pace, assessment style and common misconceptions in IP classes, so lessons stay aligned to what students face in school.
Maximum teacher-to-student ratio of 1:6
Our small groups balance personalised guidance with peer learning. Students learn how to explain their thinking, compare methods and tackle unfamiliar questions, while teachers check understanding and correct mistakes early.
