Master JC History with the subject experts at The Humanities Clinic

H2 History Tuition for JC Students

What is JC History & Why is it Important?

History is a key humanities subject in Singapore’s A-Level curriculum, designed to develop critical thinking, argumentation, and source analysis skills. The subject requires students to evaluate global and regional historical developments, assess causation and impact, and craft persuasive arguments based on evidence.

Unlike O-Level History, JC History requires deeper analysis, structured evaluation, and argumentation techniques. Many students struggle with source-based case studies (SBCS) and essay writing, making it essential to master structured answering strategies.

At The Humanities Clinic, our JC History tuition program teaches students structured frameworks, step-by-step answering techniques, and exam-focused strategies to excel in H2 History.

  • Learn directly from Humanities specialists with more than 10 years of teaching experience. At The Humanities Clinic, we understand the common pitfalls students face—and we know exactly how to guide them through structured techniques to master essay writing and exam strategies with confidence.

  • At The Humanities Clinic, we understand the importance of individualized learning experiences. Unlike many other tuition centres, our class sizes are at a maximum of 5 students to ensure that every student receives the attention they need while benefiting from group dynamics and collaborative learning.

  • We develop comprehensive programmes that impart effective step-by-step examination strategies. Develop and hone your critical thinking skills and independence to tackle Humanities subjects effectively.

  • Always there for you - last minute jitters and doubts? We’re always here to answer your queries regarding exam questions or topics, through 24/7 Whatsapp support.
