How To Be Happier

22 Proven Methods Of How To Be Happier

Incorporating even a few of these practices into your daily routine can lead to noticeable improvements in happiness over time.

Start using our 22 tips to help you be happier, be more in control, and be able to cope better with life’s ups and downs.

  1. Manage your stress levels. All of us feel stress, whether it is cause by school work, office pressures, or family situations. You can find ways to reduce stress, and also learn time management techniques
  2. Start having a regular exercise routine, and time for yourself. These are important because taking control of your time can effectively reduce your stress levels. Even moderate exercise releases chemicals in your brain that lift your mood. It can help you sleep better, have mor energy, and keep your heart healthy. Choose an exercise that you enjoy, and aim for at least 150 minutes a week. Even a daily walk can make a difference. Regular exercise releases endorphins, which can boost your mood
  3. Breathing techniques can reduce feelings of anxiety and stress
  4. Practical self-help cognitive behavioural therapy techniques can help you solve problems and build resilience
  5. Enjoy yourself. When you do things that you enjoy, your emotional well-being improves
  6. Simple activities like watching sports with a friend, taking a long relaxing shower, or meeting with friends for a delicious meal can all improve your day
  7. Doing something that you are good at like cooking, singing, craft, or dancing is an effective way to enjoy yourself and have a sense of achievement. Engaging in activities that you enjoy and that stimulate your creativity and passion will definitely help you feel happier
  8. Try to avoid doing things that seem enjoyable at the time but will soon make you feel worse afterwards, like eating junk food
  9. Self-esteem is the way you feel about yourself. A good way to improve your self-esteem is to treat yourself the way you would treat a close friend – in a positive and honest way
  10. Instead of saying to yourself: “You are so stupid for messing up on those recent pages of homework”, you should ask yourself if you would say these same words to your best friend. Most probably not. So, you should not say these to yourself because these words are very hurting and damaging to your self-esteem
  11. Instead, tell yourself: “You are very bright and hardworking. You will get it absolutely right the next time you do your homework.”
  12. Choose a well-balanced diet. Healthy food does not always need to taste bland and boring. When you make healthy choices about your diet, you will feel emotionally stronger. You will know that you are doing something positive for yourself, and this will increase your self-esteem
  13. A good diet helps your brain and body to work efficiently, so you should aim to eat a balanced diet that includes all the main food groups
  14. Get enough sleep. Most adults need between 7 to 8 hours of sleep every night, in order for their body and mind to have adequate rest. Quality sleep is vital for mental and emotional health
  15. Talk to friends and relatives. Having a social network is important, whether you prefer your network to include friends, family members, or church members. When you talk through your concerns with members of your social network, you can release tension instead of keeping it inside you. Communications help strengthen your relationships and connect better with people. This is crucial for emotional well-being
  16. Resilience is what enables you to cope with life’s ups and downs. When you can overcome painful times, your resilience grows. Try making something creative out of bad experiences for example by writing, painting, or singing. Through these, you can express your pain and get through hard times
  17. Practice gratitude. Regularly take time to reflect on or write down things that you are grateful for. This can shift your focus on what you don’t have, to what you already have
  18. Mindfulness and meditation. Practicing meditation and mindfulness can help reduce stress and promote a sense of peace and contentment
  19. Limit the time you spend online. When you reduce the time you spend on social media, you can reduce feelings of anxiety and dissatisfaction
  20. Help others. Volunteering, or helping others in need can boost your mood and provide a sense of fulfillment
  21. Set small goals. Achieving small, manageable goals can provide you with a sense of accomplishment and progress
  22. Spend time in nature. Nature has a calming effect can improve your mood. Try to spend more time outdoors regularly

SINGAPORE’S LEADING PRIVATE TUITION AGENCY

HOW DO I REQUEST FOR A TUTOR?

You can request for a tutor by submitting our online Request Form.

Upon receiving your request, we will Whatsapp you to discuss your child’s academic needs. We will spend the next few hours shortlisting several suitable tutors within our database and network for your consideration.

Our working hours are from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week.

Tuition usually commences within one week after you have selected a tutor.

TRIAL LESSON

The paid trial lessons can be 1.5 hours or 2 hours per session.

CAN I CHANGE THE TUTOR AFTER THE TUITION BEGINS?

You just need to pay for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted. There will not be any extra charges for the change.

AM I ABLE TO VIEW THE TUTOR’S CERTIFICATES BEFORE THE FIRST LESSON?

You can request to see the hardcopies of certificates of your tutor to be presented to you during the first lesson.

The client acknowledges that it is his/her responsibility to verify the suitability, credentials and qualifications of any tutor with whom he/she engages.

HOW MUCH DO I PAY FOR YOUR TUTOR MATCHING SERVICES?

Success Tutors is Singapore’s leading private tuition agency and our matching service is free for students/parents requesting for tutors. This is because our agency commission is charged to the tutor, not to you.

The client will pay to Success Tutors half of the fees payable in the first 4 calendar weeks. This amount is the commission to Success Tutors for matching the tutor to the client, and will be borne by the tutor.

Thereafter, the client will pay the tuition fees directly to the tutor.

If lessons are postponed during the first two weeks, the commission payable to Success Tutors will be based on the tuition session conducted the subsequent week(s).

The tutor shall collect all fees due to the tutor from the parent after the two weeks. Success Tutors will not assist in any recovery of fees.

PAYMENT OF FEES

The client is required to pay tuition fees only for the number of hours of lessons given by the tutor.

If you decide to stop the tuition after the first lesson, you are required to pay for only that lesson.

Please transfer the fee for that lesson to Success Tutors and we will transfer the tutor’s fee to him/her.

Tutors are not authorized at any time to collect the payment on Success Tutors’s behalf.

Tuition fees are to be paid every 4 weeks to the tutor, unless otherwise agreed between the client and the tutor.

PAYMENT MODE

We will provide our bank account information for you to make payment via internet banking or ATM transfer directly to Success Tutors’s bank account.

If the client fails to pay us, Success Tutors reserves the right to terminate the Assignment. This is in fairness to the tutor, who might need to give the available slot to another client if this Assignment does not materialize.

Once the payment is received, it will be acknowledged in the form of a receipt, issued to the payer (Parent/Requestor/Guardian) via Whatsapp, sms, email or other electronic communications medium. We will also provide details of the Tuition Assignment that can include: tutor’s name, hourly fee, date of commencement of tuition, subject(s), level, duration of each lesson and frequency, etc.

FIRST LESSON

Once the client accepts the tutor’s candidacy, the client will not be able to change the schedule of the First Lesson.

Clients are allowed to make changes in the schedule after the First Lesson is over. However, Success Tutors hopes that this is not necessary as the tutor has already reserved that slot of time for you.

If you want to make changes in the schedule, please consult with your tutor to ask if he/she is able to change the schedule or not.

The tutor is to bring his/her identity document, academic transcripts/certificates and relevant documents for the First Lesson for verification purposes.

If the tutor is unable to conduct the First Lesson of a tuition assignment, the tutor must call Success Tutors at least 3 business days before the actual lesson. If the tutor fails to notify Success Tutors of his/her cancellation/postponement, an administrative charge of S$30 will be imposed on him/her.

If the tutor fails to contact Success Tutors with a valid reason to inform us about the tutor’s absence from the lesson, the tutor’s profile at Success Tutors may be blacklisted. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

LOCATION OF TUTORING LESSONS

Tutors will conduct lessons at the student’s residence unless otherwise specified and agreed upon by both the client and the tutor.

If the client has a request for the tuition to be conducted at another location (eg a friend’s home), Success Tutors will ask if the tutor is able to accommodate the request.

Success Tutors and the tutor will not be responsible if the given location is occupied or not available for use for the lessons and the officially scheduled timings will still be counted as a paid lesson.

TUTOR REASSIGNMENT OR CANCELLATION OF ASSIGNMENTS

There is no obligation or contract to complete a fixed number of lessons, except for the First Lesson.

If at any time the client is not satisfied with the tutor, the client may request a replacement or termination. However, the client is responsible for paying the fee for the number of lessons given prior to termination.

Success Tutors will discuss separately with the client and the tutor regarding future tuition arrangements, and Success Tutors will change the tutor for the client. There will not be any extra charges for the change and the client needs to pay just for the tuition session(s) that have been conducted.

If the client cancels a tutoring assignment before the tutor completes the agreed number of lessons for the first 4 calendar weeks, Success Tutors assumes full claim to 50% of the tuition fees for the total number of lessons delivered in the month. For example, if the client had requested for 8 lessons per month, but the assignment was cancelled after the 5th session, Success Tutors will be paid pro-rated commission for the 5 lessons conducted.

Success Tutors will not be liable for any payment charges or issues arising from the cancellation of tuition assignments by the client.

If the client terminates the Assignment because the tutor is often late, skips lessons without valid explanations etc, the tutor will bear Success Tutors’s full commission fee.

If the tutor cancels the Assignment after confirming acceptance (that is, the client’s contact information and address have been given to the tutor), the tutor will need to compensate the commission which amounts to 50% of the fees payable (as stated in the confirmation Whatsapp, sms, email or other forms of electronic communications messages) for the first 4 weeks.

If the tutor wishes to cancel a Tuition Assignment before the end of the first 4 calendar weeks, the tutor is to inform both Success Tutors as well as the client at least 3 days before the next lesson date. Success Tutors will recover our legal share of the one-time commission of 50% of the fee for the first 4 calendar weeks from the tutor. Tutors are encouraged to have a long-term commitment as the clients have vested their trust in them.

TERMINATION

The tutor will receive full or pro-rated payment for the number of lessons rendered, provided the tutor has complied with the Terms of this Agreement.

The client has the right to terminate the tuition if the tutor is unable to produce the documents certifying his/her credentials. In such cases, the tutor has to pay Success Tutors the amount of money equivalent to the tuition fee for the day, as commission.
