The basics

Who is Zippy for?

Students preparing for PSLE, O-Levels and A-Levels who want help with their studies at home, and parents looking for something better than another hour of tuition.

Is the starter course really free?

Yes. It runs for one to two weeks, and you don't need a card to sign up.

Who checks the feedback?

Zippy marks every answer in seconds. In programmes and intensives, a mentor or teacher also reviews your work and adds their own feedback.

What does a mentor do?

Follows your progress through the programme, answers your questions in the lessons, and teaches the parts you're stuck on.

How is an intensive different?

It runs for one month with fixed start dates and a small cohort, and you have a dedicated teacher from the first day to the last.

Phone or laptop?

Both. Zippy runs in any browser, the Android app is on Google Play, and the iPhone app is in beta. Your progress follows you from one to the other.
