Odyssey Math Tuition Eyes Expansion via Franchise Model in 2026 Amid Singapore's Booming Tuition Industry

Aug 18, 2025

Odyssey Math Tuition announces 2026 franchise expansion in Singapore's S$1.8B tuition industry, leveraging proprietary math tuition curriculum and 24/7 e-learning for ethical, affordable math education amid challenges like price, inequality, and aggressive marketing.

Singapore, August 18, 2025 -- Odyssey Math Tuition (OMT), a leading provider of specialized math education in Singapore, today announced plans to expand through a franchise model starting in 2026. This strategic move comes as Singapore's private tuition sector reaches new heights, with families spending S$1.8 billion on tuition in 2023—a 30% increase from S$1.4 billion in 2018—driven by intense academic competition and parental desires for an edge in subjects like mathematics.

Private Tution Industry In Singapore

The tuition industry in Singapore continues to thrive despite efforts by the Ministry of Education (MOE) to reduce academic pressure through reforms like the removal of mid-year exams and a new PSLE scoring system. However, with 70% of households enrolling children in tuition and average monthly spending rising to S$104.80 per household in 2023 (up from S$88.40 in 2017-2018), the Singapore tuition market shows no signs of slowing. Parents are increasingly turning to external support for core subjects like math, motivated by competition and the "kiasu" mindset, though this boom raises concerns about social inequality, student stress, and over-reliance on tutoring. Industry challenges include aggressive marketing tactics—such as fear-based ads warning of exam difficulties—and calls for a MOE code of conduct to curb unethical practices like selective enrollment or exaggerated success claims.

Odyssey Math Tuition's Plans To Scale in 2026

Odyssey Math Tuition's franchise model will leverage its proprietary math tuition curriculum, small group classes (around 8 students), and 24/7 online math e-learning platform to offer franchisees a turnkey operation with comprehensive support, including math tutor training, marketing guidance, and access to AI-integrated resources. The custom and proprietary math curriculum, developed and refined by Mr. Justin Tan over more than 10 years, complements the MOE's math syllabus by focusing on deep understanding of concepts through relatable explanations, practice questions, quizzes, and crash courses.

The e-learning system provides unlimited 24/7 access, enabling students to learn at their own pace with video lessons, worksheets, progress tracking, and personalized feedback—available as a standalone option to make quality math education more affordable and accessible for families.

Complementing this is Odyssey Math TV, a free video collection platform offering self-paced tutorials on O-Level and A-Level math exam papers, ensuring high-quality math tuition resources reach every student without barriers, as emphasized by Odyssey Math Tuition's commitment: "We believe that education should not be exclusive. With your support, we hope to continue providing high quality math videos to every student."

The expansion builds on OMT's ongoing growth, including a new physical center opening in September 2025 and standalone e-learning courses later that year, positioning the brand to capture a share of the market's 10-20% annual growth. Initial investments are projected to start at S$68,000-145,000, aligning with industry benchmarks for education franchises, with potential for recurring revenue through membership models and high ROI through ethical, sustainable practices.

In line with calls for industry reform, Odyssey Math Tuition's franchises will proactively adhere to ethical standards, avoiding fear-based marketing and selective enrollment. Instead, the business model emphasizes transparency, inclusivity for all ability levels, and a focus on student well-being.

"With Singapore's tuition industry evolving rapidly, we're excited to franchise OMT in 2026 to empower more educators and families," said Mr. Justin Tan, Founder and Principal Tutor at Odyssey Math Tuition. "Our focus on deep math understanding, combined with ethical practices that prioritize student well-being over scare tactics, will help franchisees build sustainable businesses.

"By preparing students for AI-driven futures through critical thinking and adaptability, we're not just teaching math; we're fostering resilient lifelong learners."

Early adopters echo this vision. "As a former teacher, the option of franchising with OMT allows me to focus on holistic math education without aggressive marketing—it's rewarding to see students thrive beyond grades," said Ms. Elena Lim, a potential franchise partner.

Parents like Mr. Rajesh Kumar add, "OMT's approach has built my child's math confidence without the stress of other centers; expanding this model means more families can benefit."

Boatwright takes oath of allegiance

Boatwright takes oath of allegiance

BENNIE Boatwright moved closer to becoming a naturalized Filipino citizen and a possible stint with the men’s national basketball team after taking his oath of allegiance to the Philippine flag recently. The Samahang Basketball ng Pilipinas (SBP) posted a photo of Boatwright taking the oath at the Philippine consulate in China, where the 6-foot-10 Boatwright currently plays as import for the Fujian Sturgeons in the Chinese Basketball Association. The 30-year-old Boatwright simply needs to complete the final step of securing a Philippine passport so he can finally play for Gilas Pilipinas as a naturalized player. SBP is hoping that the former San Miguel Beer import can get his Philippine passport in time for the November window of the Asian Qualifiers for the 2027 FIBA World Cup. The Philippines will next face Syria and Iran in Seremban, Malaysia. Boatwright’s naturalization lapsed into law in September as President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. neither signed nor vetoed the bill after 30 days on his desk. Having Boatwright as a naturalized player for Gilas Pilipinas in the coming Asian Qualifiers is a huge boost for the national team considering that Justin Brownlee has been hounded by multiple injuries to his legs and hamstring. National coach Tim Cone also revealed Brownlee has been dealing with heart issues. Brownlee managed to play against New Zealand during the July window in Auckland but missed the away game against Australia in that same window as the SBP announced he sustained multiple injuries. He did not play for Gilas Pilipinas in its last two home games against Iran and Jordan.

Gandler still adjusting to Capital 1’s system

Gandler still adjusting to Capital 1’s system 

AFTER playing three official games with Capital 1, Vanie Gandler admits she is still struggling to get into the swings of things with her new team. Gandler, the 2026 All-Filipino Conference Most Valuable Player, signed with Capital 1 in the off-season after her old team Cignal left the league. Despite the lofty expectations, the 25-year-old gunner said she is still adjusting to the system under head coach Jorge Souza de Brito but is confident she can contribute to the team. “It's okay so far. I think I've seen so much progress with our connection throughout the games. I was struggling at the start, but we always make sure to communicate. I'm being patient with it,” said Gandler, who scored 10 points in a five-set victory over ZUS on Tuesday.  “We're all being patient with our connection because we know that it's really a process and we can't force it,” she added. Gandler averaged 12.33 points in her first three games with Capital 1 which currently has a 2-1 win-loss record in the PVL All-Filipino Conference Siklab Series Gandler, however, is thrilled and grateful to have sophomore star Bella Belen by her side to take the load in scoring. “And of course, with regards to having Bella in the team, I'm very grateful of course that Bella's able to hold our ground while I'm still trying to find my rhythm,” Gandler said. “I'm still trying to find my role here in the team, but Bella's ever reliable so we're very grateful to have her.” Belen scored a career-high of 35 points in a win over Akari, followed by a huge 29-point outing against ZUS. Gandler, meanwhile, pointed out that all three games of Capital 1 in the tournament were 5-setters which helped build character for the team. “Yeah, I was talking to coach after the game and I was saying that it's good that our team is being exposed to these high-pressure moments this early on. Especially this early on in our journey together as this core. Of course, what's important is that we win,” she said. Capital 1 (2-1) looks to extend its winning streak to three when it faces winless PLDT (0-2) on Oct. 24 at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City.

Edwards, Timberwolves spoil Giannis’ Heat debut

Edwards, Timberwolves spoil Giannis’ Heat debut

LOS ANGELES — Minnesota star Anthony Edwards erupted for 45 points as the Timberwolves spoiled two-time NBA Most Valuable Player Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Miami Heat debut with a 131-106 triumph on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila). Edwards, teaming seamlessly with new arrival LaMelo Ball, added 10 rebounds and three assists. He had nine of the Timberwolves’ 21 three-pointers while Ball, who joined from Charlotte this season, drilled five treys on the way to 21 points. “At this point, me and him are gonna be like best friends,” Edwards told ESPN in an on-court interview before exchanging a beaming hug with Ball. Antetokounmpo, the former Bucks talisman who captured one championship and two Most Valuable Player awards in his 13-year tenure in Milwaukee, looked the part, connecting on 13 of 19 attempts from the floor on the way to 35 points with six rebounds. But the Heat as a whole — widely tipped as Eastern Conference contenders after landing Antetokounmpo — had no answer for the Timberwolves. “We’re going to have to step up our defense,” said Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, who added Miami’s offense “did not look like us.” The second night of the new season featured an array of familiar faces in new places. In Washington, Anthony Davis made his Wizards debut nine months after he was acquired from Dallas in a blockbuster trade and spearheaded a 128-118 victory over the Bucks. Now recovered from hand and groin injuries, Davis scored 34 points and pulled down 12 rebounds drawing chants of “MVP!” from Wizards fans who suffered through the team’s league-worst 17-65 campaign last season and saw top draft pick AJ Dybantsa suffer an ankle injury in the team’s pre-season finale. Trae Young, who was also acquired by Washington last season but played just five games for them because of injury, added 20 points and 13 assists in the Wizards’ first season-opening win since 2022. Tyler Herro, acquired in the trade that sent Antetokounmpo to Miami, led the Bucks with 24 points and Jaime Jaquez Jr., who arrived in the same deal, added 22. It was back to the future in Toronto, where the Raptors welcomed the return of Kawhi Leonard with a 135-92 blowout of the Chicago Bulls. Leonard, who led Raptors to their first NBA title in 2019, is back after a trade from the LA Clippers — a deal delayed by a league probe that found the Clippers and Leonard violated salary-cap circumvention rules, leading to stiff sanctions for the club. Leonard made five of 17 of his shot attempts but made all 11 of his free throws on the way to 23 points. Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley also scored 23 points each for the Raptors, who led by as many as 48 points in the wire-to-wire triumph. Triumphant Haliburton return Indiana guard Tyrese Haliburton, playing his first game since he tore his right Achilles tendon in Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals, scored 13 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter and added 12 assists as the Pacers edged the Pelicans 123-120 in New Orleans. Haliburton, who put the Pacers ahead for good with a driving basket with 1:23 to play, was overcome with emotion in an on-court postgame interview. “It means a lot to be back out here,” he said, wiping away tears. Dallas guard Kyrie Irving, playing his first game in more than 19 months after recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament, scored 15 points for the Mavericks in a 128-110 loss to the Houston Rockets — who had 30 points apiece from Kevin Durant and Jabari Smith Jr. AFP
