Before you choose a tutor

Maths Classes in English Medium: How to Choose One in Sri Lanka Match the class medium to the medium your child sits the paper in, check the teacher can actually teach maths in English, and compare fees by class format. Maths Classes in Sinhala Medium: Fees, Formats and How to Pick a Teacher What Sinhala medium maths tuition costs in Sri Lanka in 2026, the difference between theory, revision and paper classes, and the questions to ask before you pay.

Choosing a tutor safely

Advice.lk reviews every listing by hand and confirms the contact number works. That is the limit of what a directory can honestly promise — it is not a background check. The rest is on you, and these are the checks worth doing.

Treat as warning signs

  • No proof of qualification, or photocopies only
  • Guaranteed grades or promised marks
  • Payment for a full term demanded up front
  • Refusal to allow a single trial class
  • A fee well above others for the same format
  • No reply, or a number that never answers

Ask for these

  • Original certificates, not copies
  • The school or institute they teach at, and confirm it
  • Two current parents' numbers — then actually call them
  • A fee that includes papers and notes, stated plainly
  • Marked scripts returned with corrections
  • A first class held at the institute or somewhere public

Pay month to month for the first two months. A teacher confident in their own class will not object, and it is the single cheapest protection you have.

Understanding the exam system

Tuition in Sri Lanka is shaped by three competitive gates: the Grade 5 Scholarship, O/L, and A/L. Which class your child needs depends on which gate they are facing.

Common questions

How much does tuition cost in Sri Lanka?
It depends heavily on subject, level and format. As a rough guide: a mass class at an institute costs least per student, individual home tuition the most, and online classes sit in between. A/L subjects cost more than O/L. Rather than quote a single number, every listing on this directory publishes its own fee range so you can compare before you call.
What is the difference between Sinhala medium, English medium and Tamil medium classes?
The medium is the language the class is taught in, and it should match the medium your child sits the exam in. A strong Maths teacher who teaches in English medium is the wrong choice for a Sinhala medium student sitting O/L, because the terminology on the paper will not match what was taught. Filter by medium first, then by subject.
Is Advice.lk an agency? Do you take a commission?
No. This is a free directory. We do not place teachers, we do not take a cut of your fees, and we do not charge to contact anyone. You deal directly with the teacher or institute.
How do you check the listings?
Every submission is reviewed by a person before it goes live, and we confirm the contact number works. That is the limit of it — we cannot background-check individuals, so please verify qualifications and ID yourself and attend the first class somewhere public.
I teach in Sri Lanka. How do I get listed?
Submit the form on this site with your subjects, medium, district and fees. It is free, there is no commission, and there is no limit on enquiries. Listings usually go live within a day.
Which subjects and levels are covered?
A/L and O/L across all streams, Grade 6-11, Grade 1-5, the Grade 5 Scholarship exam, Cambridge and Edexcel O and A Level, and university and professional qualifications including CA Sri Lanka, CIMA, ACCA and AAT. Alongside those: IELTS, spoken English, foreign languages, programming, music, dancing and art.

Advice.lk lists tuition teachers and centres as a free directory. We are not an agency and we take no fee or commission from any lesson you arrange. We verify contact details but we do not employ, supervise or background-check the people listed. Please meet in a safe public place first, verify qualifications and ID yourself, and never pay large sums in advance. See our guide on choosing a tutor safely.
