Hougang has a lot of tuition centres packed around a small number of hubs — Hougang Central, Kovan (Upper Serangoon Road), and The Midtown mainly — so parents looking for preschool English tuition usually have several options within a five-minute walk of each other. Some of these centres run full enrichment programmes from preschool through JC; others focus narrowly on English and reading.
We swept every listing categorised under “Hougang” on this directory and kept every one that teaches Preschool English. That gave us 18 centres — a real count, not rounded, not padded.
