Lexington Singapore School was founded in 2014 by a Singaporean math teacher, Kar-Hwee Koh, who was first asked to tutor her neighbor’s kids in math.
Today, Lexington Singapore school has over 30 teachers teaching almost 500 kids in small group classes, from kindergarten through high school. Our own curriculum is designed based on the highly successful pedagogy and methodology from Singapore, and adapted to the local school requirements.
Our teachers are active or retired school teachers in the greater Boston who come to our program to share their knowledge and passion for math education with eager students every week. Our classes are deliberately kept small for individualized attention and learning, but also big enough to have lively discussions and group learning synergies.
Weekly lessons are either held in-person in Lexington or Acton MA, while remote classes are held via Zoom. Fall classes run from September through January, while Spring classes run from late January through June. Please refer to our website for current class schedule, availability and tuition rates.
To find out more about our programs, sign up for a free online evaluation session on our website, during which we will advise on suitable classes and options for the student.

Business Review
"My rising tenth-grade twins first joined Kar Hwee at Lexington Singapore School (LSS) when they were in first grade and they remained LSS students all the way to high school! I was looking for a math program that focused on the theory of math — one that could teach the kids how to think mathematically, how to understand and conceptualize math, rather than how to memorize and repeat math facts.
The problem-solving the kids were doing as lower elementary school students at Lexington Singapore School really demonstrated how comfortable they were learning how math worked.
Math was fun and challenging — then and now. They understand it and have a great time with it, even when it is difficult. This was all I was hoping for and far more!
As a bonus, the twins are at the very top of their honors math classes, have participated on their school math team, and have won math awards in school. And year after year after year, their Lexington Singapore School math teams have won the New England Regional Continental Math League (CML) Contest.
Kar Hwee is an amazing educator and she has built a fantastic school for kids where they can gather together and discover what makes math tick. I am so grateful for all of the years my kids have been part of the LSS community and so happy that they have grown up to be strong — and yes, even joyful — math thinkers!"

"My daughter has been fortunate to attend classes since she was in kindergarten. Every year she has loved the classes, her teachers and her classmates. I know Ms Kar offers world-class math education, and she really cares about providing the very best, from selecting outstanding teachers, to crafting a solid well-rounded curriculum, to caring for and nurturing each and every one of the students, to enriching parents with workshops, and many other wonderful things. My son also joined more recently and he really loves math, his teacher and classmates. Our family is very grateful and we always highly recommend it to other families!"
