Singapore's tuition industry - Entering the tuition industry without stellar grades - am I fighting a losing battle? ?
In Singapore’s tuition industry—where many tutors have strong academic credentials—how can late bloomers with non-stellar grades still build credibility? Would it be more realistic to differentiate as a specific type of educator (e.g. mentoring-focused, applied learning, confidence-building), rather than competing purely on academic results? For context, I would consider myself a very late bloomer. Managed to make it from what we termed as a 'neighbourhood' secondary school -> poly -> university (one of the big-3 ones). How can I land myself up as a tuition teacher despite having so much stacked against me? And parents only looking for indicators of credibility relating to paper qualifications or grades?

Should I take the Singapore Government Grant for undergraduate studies?
I am a high school student from Bangladesh. I have recently been accepted to Yale-NUS College for the class of 2023. I have an option to take the Government grant that will allow me to pay subsidised fees but I will have to take up a bond to work for 3 years in a Singapore-registered company after my studies. I am interested in pursuing a career in Artificial Intelligence research and I intend to pursue a phd. I have 3 options now: 1) I can take the grant but it will mean that I will have to work for 3 years before pursuing my next studies; 2) I can take student loans instead of the grant and pay them back after getting a job; or 3) I can study in a public university in Bangladesh on a very low cost and then pursue my higher studies abroad. If you recommend to take the grant, can you suggest some companies that I can work with to fulfill my bond with a Bachelor of Science degree and also gain experience that will help me in pursing a career in AI research. Thank you in advance. #college #singapore #ai #artificialintelligence #technology #undergraduate #computer #bachelors #science
