Economics Tuition That Really Helps
Economics at JC level can be challenging. This is the first time students are in contact with the subject, and some students may find the subject so difficult that they lose interest in the subject altogether. A pity because it is a very marketable subject recognized by many employees and can open doors for students in the future.
At Anthony Fok’s Economics tuition, students are in good hands as they are personally coached by JC Economics tutor, Dr. Anthony Fok, who is a former Ministry of Education school teacher. We make sure that students are equipped with the required higher order thinking skills, comprising application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation. We teach students how to explain current economic trends using principles in textbooks, putting forth answers in an impactful argument supporting statements against contradicting views. In doing so, we are proud to have produced successful students who have gone on to graduate in prestigious universities such as the University of Cambridge and London School of Economics and Political Science.

Is Economics tuition a necessity?
Singapore has been dubbed the “Tuition Nation”. Even Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong recently commented that tuition has become a “minor national obsession”. Singaporean parents are certainly willing to splurge on tuition services for their children as they perceive tuition to be the key to academic success. In the last report on Singapore household expenditures in 2008 by the Department of Statistics, figures showed that Singapore households spent around $820 million on centre- and home-based private tuition, up from $470 million a decade earlier.
In today’s competitive society, many parents view tuition as a necessary means to scoring distinctions in examinations and getting ahead of the academic race. However, Dr Anthony Fok believes that tuition should be viewed as a supplement to a child’s education, and not an integral part of our education system or an obligatory pathway to success. The role of tuition should be to fill in the gaps of knowledge.
What makes Dr Anthony Fok special?
Dr Anthony Fok has long been recognised as one of Singapore’s most respected and effective Economics tutors. As early as 2008, he was featured in The Sunday Times as “one of the five most sought-after tutors in Singapore.” The article noted that “as he is well known for his ability to deliver results, parents try all means to put their child in his class.” This recognition reflects not only popularity, but a consistent track record of producing outstanding results.
Beyond results, what truly sets Dr Fok apart is his philosophy of teaching. He believes that effective tuition goes far beyond simply covering syllabus content. As Dr Fok shares:
“My popularity as a top Economics tutor in Singapore comes from more than merely imparting Economics knowledge. I motivate students to love the subject and to look beyond academic grades. I teach values and life lessons that will remain relevant long after graduation.”
Students and parents often describe Dr Fok as more than just a tutor. He takes on the role of a mentor and guide, supporting students both academically and personally, and helping them build confidence, discipline, and resilience.
Another key strength lies in his exam-focused expertise:
“I help to shorten the learning process and bridge the gap between what is taught in schools and what eventually appears in the national examinations.”
Students seek Dr Fok not only for clarity, but because they want to achieve an ‘A’ grade—and he is confident in delivering results when students commit to working hard together with him.
Above all, Dr Fok’s dedication is driven by genuine passion:
“I enjoy teaching and I am fortunate to find great satisfaction in helping my students succeed.”
This passion, combined with proven results, media recognition, and unwavering commitment to students, is what makes Dr Anthony Fok a tutor that parents trust and students rely on—year after year.
