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?

How Does the Colorado Opportunity Fund (COF) Work? #2025
I’m an in-state student planning to enroll in the Architectural Drafting Certificate program at Front Range Community College (FRCC). I’m trying to understand how the Colorado Opportunity Fund (COF) applies to my tuition. FRCC’s website lists tuition as $285 per credit hour for in-state students and $169 per credit hour after the COF stipend is applied. However, when I check my COF account, it shows that I’m awarded $145 and that $145 remains. I’ve already been approved for COF and selected to apply the stipend toward eligible courses. I’m planning to enroll in 6 credit hours for my first semester and want to understand how this amount will impact my tuition. Could someone please explain how the $145 COF amount is calculated and applied to tuition? Also, why does the actual reduction on FRCC’s website show only $116 per credit hour instead of $145? I’d appreciate any clarification or advice to help me make an informed decision. #2025
