Sophia Education's Comprehensive Billing and Registration Policies

Transparent and Inclusive Fee Structure

At Sophia Education, our listed fee is all-encompassing, covering all necessary materials and instruction without any hidden costs. This includes the application of GST. We do not require any additional fees for materials or deposits, ensuring a straightforward and transparent pricing structure.

Billing Cycle and Invoice System

  • 4-Week Billing Cycle: Our billing is conducted on a 4-week cycle basis, rather than monthly. Invoices are auto-generated every 4 weeks.

  • Extra Lessons: If extra lessons are added within a 4-week cycle, these additional charges will be included in your next billing cycle. For example, if your regular fee is SGD 400 per 4 weeks and you take an additional lesson, your next invoice will be SGD 500 (SGD 400 + SGD 100 for the extra lesson).

  • Missed Lessons: Conversely, if you miss a lesson due to valid reasons, this will be reflected as a credit in your next billing cycle. For instance, missing one lesson will lead to a positive balance of SGD 100, making your next invoice SGD 300 (SGD 400 – SGD 100 credit).

Registration and Special Offers

  • New Student Registration Fee: A one-time fee of SGD 30 is applied for new students enrolling in their first subject. This fee is non-refundable.

  • Second Subject Enrollment: Current students enrolling in a second subject will receive one free lesson credit, added to their account after the completion of the 4th lesson of the new subject.

  • Sibling Enrollment: For current students’ siblings enrolling at Sophia Education, one free lesson credit will be added to their account after the completion of their 4th lesson. This offer is applicable to one subject only.

Sophia Education Tuition Fee Q&A

Dear parent, for easy recording,tuition fee is paid on the first of every 4 lessons. Should you wish to stop after 1st lesson, any unused tuition fee will be refunded within 3 working days without any questions asked. Each of our lessons are absolutely beneficial and useful. We don’t provide free lesson. Because we believe in our quality, that’s why we have stop anytime policy. Thanks.

Almost all other tuition centers charge parents by term basis, parents need to pay one shot 12 lessons or even 18 lessons (4 plus months!!)+various tuition fee deposit, tuition admin fee and tuition material fee.

Beside that, they don’t refund any unused tuition fee even your child dislike the tuition lessons and wish to stop earlier. They use this way to ensure the students still attend lessons even the students don’t feel their lessons valuable anymore. These modes are very unfair for parents/students. We believe in using the quality of our lessons and our premium service to win the students/parents.

That’s why tutors with us are highly filtered and qualified with strong responsibility on every student and every single lesson. The reason is very easy, if they don’t perform well for even just 1 single lesson, parents and students might report to us and we will change to other tutor 🙂 😀

Similarly, if you missed one lesson due to valid reasons, your balance will be positive $100 by the end of this cycle and the next invoice will be $400-$100=$300 (credit bring forward $100 will appear under the “Payments”) .
