Who teaches you
Taught by Mr. Justin Ng
I have been teaching A Level History since 2013. Over that time, students from Hwa Chong Institution, Raffles Institution, River Valley High School, National Junior College, Catholic Junior College and Millennia Institute have come through these classes, a number of them joining with grades in the S to D range and leaving with a distinction.
I write all the notes and mark all the scripts myself. There are no relief tutors and no outsourced marking. If you send an essay outside lesson time, it comes back to you with written feedback, not a grade and a tick.
With six students in a room, I know within a fortnight where each one is losing marks.
JC1 History Tuition
Preparing for the Promotional Examination
The first year of H2 History is where most students realise the subject no longer works the way it did at O Level. The content is heavier, essays demand argument rather than recall, and Promos arrive sooner than expected.
The 10-lesson Term Revision covers:
- 8 topical content lessons on the Pursuit of National Unity (Paper 2, Theme 1) and the End of the Cold War (Paper 1, Theme 1)
- 2 timed mock tests, so you know where you stand before Promos rather than after
- Curated study notes written for the 2026 9174 syllabus
- Marked practices with written feedback on structure and argument

JC2 H2 History Tuition
Preparing for the Preliminary Examination
The 10-lesson Term 3 Revision is practice-driven rather than content-driven. At this stage the problem is rarely a shortage of notes.
- 8 practice-led lessons covering Economic Changes and Outcomes in Southeast Asia, Intra-State Conflicts and the Global Economy
- 2 timed mock tests under examination conditions
- Curated study notes aligned to the 2026 9174 syllabus
- Every script marked personally, with specific feedback on structure and argument
Students have joined three months before A Levels and moved several grades. Starting now allows more room than that.

How lessons work
The class format
Group size: Capped at 6 students. Small enough that every script is read closely and every student is spoken to during the lesson.
Lesson length: 2 hours.
Fees: $400 for four lessons.
Materials: All notes are written in-house and revised each year against the current syllabus. Nothing is photocopied from school handouts.
Marking: Practices are marked and returned with written comments. Additional essays sent between lessons are marked at no extra charge.
Consultations: Arranged on request when a student needs to work through something individually.
Attend on-site at Bedok or Online
On-site: Block 205 Bedok North Street 1, #01-365, a short walk from Bedok MRT.
Online: Live lessons via Zoom, with the same discussion, materials and marking as the on-site class.
Students often switch between the two during examination season, particularly when school schedules tighten. Let us know in advance and it can be arranged.
Student results
What former students have said
“Struggled with history a lot in JC. With the help of Mr Justin, my results improved tremendously during A levels and I got A for the subject in the end. He is also very approachable and willing to mark essays for you if you send them, giving detailed feedback and suggestions.”
Cheryl Tan — Hwa Chong Institution, 2025, A for H2 History (9174)
“Very personalised tuition experience, good condensed notes useful for both case studies and essay, especially compared to more convoluted school notes.”
Darius Chan — Raffles Institution, 2025, A for H2 History (9174)
“Because of him, I improved from S/U grades in my mid-year exams and Prelims to an A in the A Levels.”
Sasha Sudev — Catholic Junior College, 2024, A for H2 History (9174)
“Had the pleasure of having Mr Justin as my H2 History tutor just 3 months before my A-Levels. With such a short time, I managed to jump up 5 grades.”
Adriana Manuella — Millennia Institute, 2025, H2 History (9174)
