Nursery: ages 3–4. Kindergarten 1: ages 4–5. Kindergarten 2: ages 5–6. Each course has two free lessons, so you can try one first. For PSLE and O-Level Tamil, please use Raffles Guru.
Each course has 18 short lessons that follow a loop of hear, see, try, find and practise. Lessons are audio-first and tap-based, so your child does not need to read or type. A parent sets up the account and enters the child's name.

If videos aren't loading, please try these steps: 1) Check your internet connection. 2) Refresh the page. 3) Clear your browser's cache. If they still don't load, please contact us using the form on our contact page.
Our platforms are web-based and work on most modern devices, including PCs, Macs, tablets and smartphones, using the latest Chrome, Firefox or Safari. An internet connection is needed. Please try a free lesson on your device before you buy.
Click "Lost your password?" on the login page and enter your email. A reset link will be sent to you, so please check your spam folder too.
Log in with the email you used to buy. A Raffles Guru login is a separate account. If you have just bought and are asked for your child's name, that is the normal first step, not a payment problem. If your course still does not show, please send your order number through the contact form.
Please try these in order:
1. Tap Start in the lesson, because sound begins after that tap.
2. Check your device volume and silent switch.
3. Open the grown-ups menu and check sound is not muted.
4. If you opened the link from another app, open it in Chrome or Safari instead.
If there is still no sound, please use our contact form.
A game must be finished before Next appears. If your child is stuck, a parent can skip it from the grown-ups menu. A lesson that is reopened starts again from its first screen.
