School was the start. This is the career.
Live, mentor-led programmes in English & test prep, AI & data, business & finance and digital careers, taught by people who do the job, in groups small enough to be noticed in.
We haven’t built these yet. We’re opening the founding cohorts to the people who tell us they want them. Nothing is charged, and the courses with the most interest get built first.

The founding faculty
Practitioners and examiners, not career lecturers. Profiles are shown by role and experience while the faculty is being assembled.
Where this leads
Indicative monthly pay bands across the markets we serve. The low end reflects entry level in South Asia; the high end reflects experienced roles in Singapore, the Gulf and the UK. Deliberately wide public ranges, for direction only.
Ranges are broad market estimates gathered from public job listings and vary widely by country, employer and experience. A first role in Colombo or Chennai sits near the bottom of each range; the top reflects several years of experience in a higher-cost market. They are not a guarantee of employment or earnings.
How the founding cohorts work
01
Two minutes: the outcome you want, the courses you’d take, and roughly when you’d start.
02
The programmes people actually reserve places on are the ones we build first. You get told before anyone else.
03
Everyone on the list gets pilot pricing and first refusal on a seat. No payment until a cohort is confirmed and you say yes.
Indicative pilot pricing
These are the numbers we’re considering for the founding cohorts, not a live price list. Nothing is charged today, and if these are wrong, the form is where you say so.
Pricing for where you actually live. These are US dollar figures set deliberately low for South Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa, not Singapore or Gulf rates. If they are still out of reach where you are, pick the honest band in the form. That answer carries more weight than any other on this page.
from US$49
per programme
Course materials and recordings, with fortnightly mentor check-ins.
from US$99
per programme
Live small-group classes on a fixed schedule, the format most people ask for.
from US$199
per programme
Your schedule, your pace, one mentor. For hard deadlines.
Employer-funded or team training? Say so in the form; we price groups separately. Instalment plans and regional pricing are both on the table for the pilot.
Short, direct answers to what people ask before they enrol. These hold true whichever provider you end up choosing.
A short, skills-first programme, usually 4 to 14 weeks, that teaches one job-relevant capability and ends in a certificate rather than a degree. Unlike school qualifications such as IGCSE or A-Level, there is no exam board and no fixed academic year: you enrol, complete a project or a test, and finish with something you can put on a CV.
Prices range from about US$50 for a short English test preparation course to roughly US$300 for a 12-week technical certificate when bought from regional providers. Large Western bootcamps charge US$1,000 to US$15,000 for comparable content. Tutopiya is pricing its pilot cohorts between US$49 and US$269 so they are reachable from South Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa.
Take IELTS Academic for most UK, Australian, Canadian and New Zealand universities and for professional registration. Take IELTS General Training for skilled migration and work visas. Take TOEFL iBT for United States and Canadian universities. Take PTE Academic if you want fast, computer-scored results for Australian or New Zealand visas. Take the Duolingo English Test if cost or a deadline is the constraint and your institution accepts it.
They help most when they come with evidence of work. A certificate alone rarely moves a hiring decision, but a portfolio of two or three real projects, a dashboard, a financial model or a live campaign, does. That is why the strongest short programmes are built around graded projects rather than recorded video and a quiz.
The right test depends on who is asking for the score, not on which is easiest. Check the exact requirement with your university, employer or immigration authority first, then prepare for that test.
| Test | Format | Typical fee | Results in | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IELTS Academic | Paper or computer, speaking with a real examiner | about US$215 to US$310 | 1 to 13 days | UK, Australia, Canada and NZ universities; nursing and medical registration |
| IELTS General Training | Paper or computer, speaking with a real examiner | about US$215 to US$310 | 1 to 13 days | Skilled migration, permanent residency and work visas |
| TOEFL iBT | Computer, speaking recorded and scored later | about US$190 to US$330 | about 4 to 8 days | United States and Canadian university admission |
| PTE Academic | Computer, scored automatically | about US$200 to US$290 | 1 to 5 days | Australian and NZ visas, plus many universities that want fast results |
| Duolingo English Test | At home, adaptive, about 1 hour | about US$65 | about 2 days | Tight budgets and tight deadlines, where the institution accepts it |
Fees and turnaround times vary by country and are changed regularly by the test providers. Treat these as indicative ranges and confirm the current figure with the official test provider before you book.
No, and we’d rather say so plainly. We’re a school-curriculum tutoring company (IGCSE, GCSE, A-Level, IB) looking at whether to build professional and certificate programmes next. This page exists to find out which ones people genuinely want. Join a waitlist and you’ll hear the moment a cohort is confirmed.
Nothing. There is no checkout on this page. Prices shown are indicative pilot pricing so you can tell us whether they’re realistic. That answer is itself part of what we’re testing.
Because we won’t put a name and a photo on a course that hasn’t launched. The profiles show real role types, sectors and experience levels of the kind of practitioners we recruit. Named profiles get published before any cohort starts.
Working professionals, university students, recent graduates, and school leavers who need an English test score for admission or a visa. Several are also relevant to employers who want to train a team; say so in the form and we’ll treat it differently.
Tell us in the notes field. Requests for unlisted courses carry more weight than anything else on this page, because they show us where the demand actually is.
Between 4 and 14 weeks depending on the programme, at 3 to 6 hours a week. Short English test preparation runs 4 to 8 weeks. Technical certificates such as data analytics, machine learning and UX design run 12 weeks. Everything is designed to be finished alongside a full-time job or a degree.
For most of the beginner programmes, no. Data analytics, generative AI, digital marketing, UX design, cloud and cybersecurity all start from first principles and assume no prior degree. Machine learning, financial modelling and the PMP track expect some prior exposure, which is marked on each course as Intermediate.
Yes. Everything is delivered live online, so the only requirements are an internet connection and a time zone we can schedule around. Pricing is set in US dollars and pitched for South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Gulf and Africa rather than Singapore or Western rates.
These are live cohorts with a mentor and a small group, not a video library you watch alone. Classes run to a schedule, assignments are marked by a person, and the capstone is reviewed rather than auto-graded. That is also why places are limited and why cohorts only open once enough people commit.
They go to the Tutopiya team so we can contact you about this programme, and nothing else. No marketing lists, no third parties. See our privacy policy.
Two minutes, no payment, no obligation. The answer decides which founding cohort opens, and yours is held for you when it does.
