What our students say
"I joined Zenith at the start of J2 when my Economics grade was at its lowest, a U. It also did not help that my school’s Economics department was not the strongest. Thankfully, I met an amazing tutor, Laychun, who was incredibly selfless and always supportive whenever I had any questions. I remember constantly texting him super late at night, and he would still reply to all my messages, which really shows how much he cared for his students, even at 2am. During the weeks leading up to A-Levels, I was feeling quite uncertain and lacked confidence in my abilities, as Economics had always been a subject I struggled with. However, Laychun really believed in me and kept providing extra consultations to clear up my doubts, breaking down abstract concepts into simple explanations. On top of that, the notes, answering formats, and predictions provided by Zenith were really helpful and game-changing. I am extremely grateful to Laychun for believing in me when none of my school tutors did. None of this would have been possible without his help. :)"

"When I started lessons in J2 with Lay Chun, I had a poor foundation and did really badly for promos. Lay Chun was super helpful in addressing my misconceptions and content errors! He emphasizes breaking down large concepts and exam questions to make them easier to tackle. He also stayed up super late to reply to our questions, which I really appreciated. Nearing the A-Levels, he consistently checked in on our progress and mental state, always providing positive reinforcement that helped me slowly feel more confident in answering exam questions.Lay Chun also goes the extra mile for his students by making additional notes and sending us tips and tricks to tackle essays and remember things more easily. I found this super helpful in the last stretch of exam preparation. Honestly, I'm so grateful to him – 100/10!!"

"I was struggling a lot with Economics in J1 and convinced myself that I could self-study, but I was wrong. My school was focusing on teaching the content, while what I really needed was extra help and practice in answering techniques, which I think is more important to master. I only joined Lay Chun’s class at the beginning of J2 after I didn’t meet my expectations for my Economics promos. My friends who were already in his class recommended him to me, so I had high expectations.In the first few months, Lay Chun met all my expectations, and I saw an improvement in my grades. Every lesson was planned perfectly, the pace was just right, and I always left class liking Economics a bit more. Even though the class was a bit big, I felt like it was as helpful as a 1-1 tuition session. Lay Chun always ensures that everyone fully understands a concept before moving on, asking questions, checking in on us during lessons, and being willing to stay behind after class to answer any questions or clear up misconceptions.By prelims, I became much more confident and managed to get my first A in Economics. The constant practice and emphasis on answering techniques made the A-Level exam feel much more manageable. In the end, I achieved an A for A-Level Economics, which I’m incredibly grateful for. I’m really proud of the improvement I made, and I truly owe it to Lay Chun’s guidance, patience, and constructive feedback. I would recommend his lessons to anyone struggling in Economics and willing to put in the effort to improve."

"I am very appreciative of all the resources Zenith provides for Economics. The notes are extremely helpful and concise, allowing me to grasp the concepts more easily. Additionally, Lay Chun has pushed me towards my highest potential during his lessons. Whenever he explains concepts, he creates mind maps to help us understand the theory and the thought process behind the content, which definitely aids in both understanding and application. He is very patient with us and always tries his best to answer our questions, even voice recording his responses when we text him after working hours. His dedication to his work and students is reflected in the grade I received for Economics. Overall, I highly recommend attending Zenith Economics lessons under Lay Chun, as he has helped me truly love the subject and offers many studying tips and tricks that are effective in helping us score better for exams."
- Erin Lee Yi Xuan, Grade A, Class of 2025
"Lay Chun is kind of funny, which makes his class entertaining and helps me to stay engaged with his lessons, allowing me to properly absorb the Economics content. The succinct and clear-cut notes also made it easier to revise the content on my own time! Additionally, the intensive time trials nearing A-Levels heavily boosted my confidence and prepared me to write under time conditions and pressure."
- Kelly Pohan, Grade A, Class of 2025
"Lay Chun always answered my questions and helped me to understand concepts and how to study effectively. My Economics improved a lot, especially in the last month before A levels, thanks to the weekly time trials. He would always remind all of his students not to give up, which was something I appreciated because I was consistently struggling in Economics."
- Reanne Quek, S to A, Class of 2025
"Mr. Tan Lay Chun is a dedicated and caring teacher who prioritizes not only his students' grades but also their well-being. He has answered all of my many queries promptly, explaining them in detail to ensure I fully grasp the concepts. His enthusiasm for teaching has encouraged me to approach economics with a positive attitude. His caring nature allowed me to stay calm as he comforted me during times of distress when I was unsure of how to answer economics questions nearing the A-Levels, making me more confident in the subject. I highly recommend this tutor for the above reasons, as he acts not only as a guiding light during the dark days of studying for A-Levels but also as a friend, a confidante, and your biggest supporter."
- Natalie Ng Sze Yuan, U to A, Class of 2025
"When I first started Economics, I was pretty lost and clueless about all the concepts that were taught, and my test results reflected that. However, after my sister introduced me to Zenith, I met my tutor Tan Lay Chun. With Lay Chun’s clear explanations, solid essay structures, detailed feedback, and funny personality, I finally learned how to answer exactly what examiners look for and jumped from an E to an A at A-Levels. I’m incredibly grateful and highly recommend Lay Chun to students who want to see an improvement in their Economics grade."
- Junrui, E to A, Class of 2025
"Before Lay Chun, I found Economics super confusing and hard. However, he’s really good at explaining concepts easily and makes the subject enjoyable to learn. I love that he’s always available on text and very approachable when you don’t understand something and need clarification. He’s a very patient teacher who always calmly guides you through difficult topics, and I would recommend him to anyone who finds Economics daunting."

"Jumped from U to A with only one year in J2 with Laychun. He is my savior 😇"
- Oh Jing Teng, C to A, Class of 2025
"Initially, I was not good in Economics and constantly kept failing, getting grades like 2/13 throughout school. A-Level was the first time I got an A, and it was because of my tutor. He constantly reminded us of what was important to focus on for A-Levels and provided concise explanations of the content, excluding unnecessary information and only focusing on what mattered. Another important thing was that he always told us not to give up and made sure we did extra practice. His teaching style really suited my learning, and I believe that’s why getting an A became fully possible."
