Overview:
Marcus Toh, Delson Kim and Ryan Lee are the Co-Founders of Podsee, a Singapore-based education technology startup transforming the way tuition and enrichment centres operate. Drawing from their own experiences as tutors and educators, they created Podsee to simplify administrative work, improve communication between parents and centres, and make it easier for families to discover and enrol in the right tuition programmes. Their vision is to build an integrated ecosystem that empowers educators to focus more on teaching while enhancing the overall learning experience for students and parents.
Industry:
Education Technology (EdTech) | Tuition Management Software | SaaS | Education Services
Professional Experience:
Before founding Podsee, the three co-founders accumulated experience across education, technology and entrepreneurship. Marcus and Delson spent years teaching tuition and witnessed first-hand the administrative challenges faced by tuition centres, while Ryan brought software engineering expertise to develop the platform. Together, they combined educational insight with technology to create an all-in-one solution that streamlines enquiries, trial lesson bookings, attendance, scheduling, payments and parent communication. Their goal is to replace fragmented manual processes with an efficient digital platform that supports the growth of tuition businesses.
Turning Point:
The turning point came when the founders recognised that most tuition centres were relying on disconnected tools such as WhatsApp, spreadsheets and manual payment tracking, resulting in unnecessary administrative work and an inconsistent experience for parents. Rather than building another tutoring platform, they chose to solve these operational pain points by creating a unified system that benefits tuition centres, educators and families alike. Their mission evolved into building the operating system for Singapore’s tuition industry, enabling centres to scale more effectively while providing parents with a simpler way to find quality education.
What They Do Now:
Today, Marcus, Delson and Ryan continue to lead Podsee’s product development, business strategy and customer growth. They work closely with tuition and enrichment centres to refine the platform while expanding its capabilities to include marketplace discovery, automated administration and business analytics. Their long-term vision is to become the central platform connecting parents, students and education providers, creating a more connected, efficient and data-driven tuition ecosystem across Singapore.
