Founder & Lead A Level Economics Tutor
B.A. Economics (NUS) ยท M.Sc. Applied Economics (SMU) ยท EMBA (Quantic)
Mr Toh founded Economics at TuitionGenius (ETG) in 2007, making it one of the longest-running specialist JC economics tuition centres in Singapore. What started as a handful of 1-to-1 students quickly grew โ within a year, he transitioned to group classes due to overwhelming demand. Today, he continues to personally teach every JC cohort, mark essays, host consultations, and reply to student WhatsApp messages. Yes, even at midnight.
He is one of only two authors of the official H1 and H2 A Level Economics TYS answer keys, published by SAP Education and available at Popular bookstores. He also authored the 50 Helpful Microeconomics Essays and 50 Helpful Macroeconomics Essays, published by Shing Lee. Every ETG publication โ from Express Textbooks to Summary Cheatsheets โ is written in-house by Mr Toh and updated every term.
Mr Toh has been featured in The Straits Times, Mothership, CNA, Vulcan Post, Zaobao, and AsiaOne โ making him one of Singapore's most widely covered JC economics tuition educators. He successfully defended the TuitionGenius trademark in a 5-year legal battle through the High Court and Court of Appeal โ with nearly $400,000 in costs awarded. He is a father of four boys and continues to pursue further academic study.
He doesn't just run ETG. He handpicks every tutor, trains them on his curriculum framework, and quality-checks teaching across all classrooms. The team below exists because he built it โ and he holds it to the same standard he holds himself.

How We Teach A Level Economics
Every ETG Economics lesson follows the same curriculum framework โ designed by Mr Toh, executed by specialists. This is what separates structured economics tuition in Singapore from ad hoc tutoring, and how consistency scales across all our JC classrooms without diluting quality.
Every A Level essay, every CSQ, every answer is trained through a repeatable framework. Our H2 economics tuition teaches JC students to weigh costs against benefits, identify stakeholder trade-offs, and qualify their arguments โ the evaluation skills that separate A from B.
Every week: essay or CSQ assignment โ worked solution + video walkthrough โ personal marking by your tutor โ specific feedback on what to fix. This rhythm compounds. By A Levels, it becomes muscle memory.
Mr Toh has reverse-engineered nearly two decades of H2 Economics papers. ETG predicts 5 out of 6 essay themes yearly โ a track record that makes this some of the most data-driven A Level economics tuition in Singapore. We teach JC students to read what SEAB is testing โ not just what the topic is about.
15+ exclusive publications โ from Express Textbooks to model essay guidebooks to 40-page Summary Cheatsheets. All written by Mr Toh. Not recycled. Not AI-generated. Not sourced from fresh graduates.
New tutors learn by observing Mr Toh's classes before teaching independently. Lesson plans, marking rubrics, and teaching approaches are standardised across all classrooms. You get the same system regardless of who teaches your slot.
Students WhatsApp Mr Toh directly โ and he replies. Unlimited free consultations over Zoom or face-to-face. TAs available on-site during exam season. Support doesn't end when the lesson does.
Economics Tutor Selection Process
Becoming an economics tutor at ETG Singapore requires more than a degree. Every A Level Economics tutor is handpicked by Mr Toh โ not mass-hired through agencies or job boards. Here's what the process looks like.
Economics degrees from top universities. Strong first-class or upper-second credentials. We look for genuine subject depth in H2 and A Level Economics โ not just a degree certificate.
Every candidate teaches a mock lesson. We evaluate clarity of explanation, ability to simplify complex concepts, and alignment with ETG's structured approach. Most applicants don't pass this stage.
New tutors observe Mr Toh's classes and teach under supervision. They learn ETG's curriculum framework, marking standards, and lesson delivery style before they ever face a class alone.
Tutors are reviewed regularly โ through student feedback, essay marking calibration, and lesson plan reviews. Consistency is non-negotiable across all ETG classrooms.
Frequently Asked Questions About ETG Economics Tuition
Economics at Tuitiongenius (ETG Economics) is a specialist A Level Economics tuition centre founded in 2007 by Mr Eugene Toh, one of only two authors of the official H1 and H2 Economics TYS answer keys published by SAP Education. ETG achieved a 70.3% A-rate in 2024 โ compared to the national average of approximately 45% โ based on whole-cohort data with honest statistical caveats.
Three structural advantages are difficult for other centres to replicate:
ETG has been featured in The Straits Times, CNA, Mothership, Vulcan Post, and Zaobao. The programme has guided over 4,000 students since 2007 across locations in Bukit Timah, Kovan, Pasir Ris, and Upper Thomson.
ETG Economics differs from most tuition centres in three measurable ways: the founder authored the official TYS answer keys, the centre teaches only Economics, and results are published as whole-cohort statistics with honest caveats โ not cherry-picked top scorers.
Most multi-subject centres employ tutors who reference the TYS. At ETG, students learn from the team led by the person who wrote it. This means every model essay, every marking rubric, and every exam technique is aligned with what Cambridge examiners actually look for.
Other specific differences:
Choose ETG if you want a structured, specialist programme with verifiable credentials. You may prefer a different centre if you want multiple subjects under one roof or if Economics is a lower priority for your child.
When evaluating economics tuition centres in Singapore, focus on five verifiable criteria rather than marketing claims: who writes the materials, whether results are whole-cohort or cherry-picked, the tutors' actual credentials, the feedback system, and whether the programme is structured or ad hoc.
Specific questions worth asking any centre:
ETG Economics is most suitable for JC students (H1 or H2) who want a structured, exam-focused programme with weekly practice-feedback cycles, proprietary materials from a published author, and access to a specialist teaching team. It may be less suitable for students looking for a casual homework-help arrangement or multi-subject bundling.
In 2024, ETG Economics achieved a 70.3% A-rate across the whole cohort. Over 19 years (2007โ2025), the long-term distinction rate is 65% across all cohorts. These are whole-cohort numbers published with statistical caveats, not selected top scorers.
Specific subgroup performance:
Important context: these figures carry inherent response bias (students who score well are more likely to report results) and selection bias (students who seek tuition may already be more motivated). The national A-rate for H2 Economics is typically around 45%. ETG publishes this context alongside every result because transparency matters more than inflated numbers.
The most common reasons students switch to ETG Economics are: lack of structured essay feedback at their previous centre, generic or outdated materials, and the absence of a systematic practice-correction cycle.
ETG's weekly Graded Homework Programme is often cited as the key differentiator โ students submit an essay or CSQ every week, receive a worked solution and video walkthrough, then get personal marking with specific feedback on what to fix. This cycle compounds over months and builds exam readiness through repetition and correction, not just content delivery.
Students also frequently cite the quality of ETG's proprietary materials (written by the TYS author, not sourced externally), the 24/7 WhatsApp access to Mr Toh, and the prediction accuracy (5 out of 6 essay themes yearly) as reasons for switching mid-year.
For most JC students, group tuition with a structured programme and weekly graded homework is more effective than ad hoc 1-to-1 sessions โ because A Level Economics rewards consistent practice and exposure to varied question types, not just content understanding.
ETG's group classes provide a structured curriculum, weekly essay/CSQ practice with personal marking, 160+ recorded lessons on the LMS, and access to all printed materials. Group dynamics also help students benchmark their performance and learn from peer answers.
1-to-1 tuition at ETG (via Premier Access) is best suited for students who need targeted remediation on specific weaknesses, have scheduling constraints that prevent group attendance, or are aiming for the highest possible grade with personalised coaching. All 1-to-1 students also receive full group class access at no extra cost.
ETG recommends group tuition as the default for most students. 1-to-1 is the right choice if your child has specific, identifiable gaps that require individual attention.
Every tutor at ETG Economics is handpicked by Mr Eugene Toh โ not mass-hired through agencies. The selection process involves academic screening (Economics degrees from top universities), a mock teaching evaluation, a co-teaching observation period under Mr Toh, and ongoing quality checks.
The current team includes a former HCI lecturer who teaches H3 Economics (Mr Jeremy Ng), a Lee Kong Chian Scholar and Dean's Lister (Ms Cherilyn), tutors with degrees from Cambridge and Carnegie Mellon (Mr Zhu), and multiple senior tutors with 4โ5 years of dedicated ETG teaching experience.
All tutors use the same curriculum framework, marking rubrics, and lesson structures designed by Mr Toh. This standardisation means students receive the same quality of instruction regardless of which tutor or location they attend.
Mr Eugene Toh still personally teaches every cohort at ETG Economics. Most group class students will have Mr Toh as their primary instructor. He also designs all curriculum materials, writes all in-house publications, and personally reviews every essay marking rubric used across ETG.
For 1-to-1 private tuition, Mr Toh accepts only one student per year via the Principal Tier ($450/hr). All other 1-to-1 students are matched with a senior tutor from the ETG team.
Regardless of who teaches your class, Mr Toh remains accessible to all ETG students via 24/7 WhatsApp and unlimited free consultations โ Zoom or face-to-face, at no extra charge.
ETG publishes whole-cohort data โ not cherry-picked top scorers. The 70.3% A-rate in 2024 is based on all students who reported their results. ETG acknowledges two known biases in this figure: response bias (students who scored well are more likely to report) and selection bias (students who seek tuition may already be more motivated than the national average).
The national A-rate for H2 Economics is typically around 45%, so 70.3% represents a significant positive gap even after accounting for these biases. Over 19 years, ETG's long-term distinction rate across all cohorts is 65%.
ETG publishes this context openly because statistical transparency is a stronger trust signal than inflated claims. When evaluating any tuition centre, ask whether their published results are based on the whole cohort or selected individuals, and whether they disclose known biases.
Yes. ETG Economics offers a free trial lesson for group classes. Students attend a real lesson โ not a sales pitch โ and receive the ETG Starter Pack, which includes printed materials such as the Microeconomics Express textbook, Economics Summary Booklet, and Diagrams Booklet.
The trial is designed to give students and parents clarity on whether ETG's structured approach is the right fit. There is no obligation to continue after the trial. Book at eugenetohgroup.typeform.com/trial or WhatsApp the admin team at +65 8121 6488.
Yes. ETG runs a confidential Financial Assistance Programme offering subsidies of 25%โ100% for students who need support. Applications are handled with full discretion. ETG's position is that financial circumstances should never prevent a deserving student from accessing structured economics tuition.
