What are the benefits of online tuition?
1. Travelling somewhere? Tuition can now take place anywhere in the world. Going away on holiday just before your exams? No worries, tuition can still happen. Even if your tutor is travelling abroad, tuition could still be possible!
2. Want a last minute tutorial? Online tuition is extremely flexible. Perhaps you want a last minute session before a test to revise topics or practice questions you don’t understand. It is much more likely that your tutor will be able to fit you in if you have an online session rather than a face to face tutorial.
3. Need more tutorials? On top of being able to organise last minute sessions, your tutor may be able to provide more sessions each week alongside their other students, as they do not have to account for travel time etc.
4. Not very organised? Depending on your tutor and the subject, online tuition may allow for a set of more organised and reliable notes that can be stored electronically and accessed from wherever in the world you might be.
5. Want to go over some topics again? Some online tuition platforms have the ability to record part or all of a session (video or audio only). This means that you can record certain explanations (or the whole session) and then recap these again in your own time or use them as independent revision help.
6. Interested in technology? Most resources are now online, including textbooks. By using carefully selected resources, online tuition allows for a fluid blend of such material which can maximise impact. Since technology is such a huge part of our lives, most students feel more comfortable and engaged with online tuition.
7. Can’t find the right tutor? Online tuition means you have a wider variety of tutors to choose from, meaning you are more likely to find the perfect fit for you!
8. Prefer studying in the comfort of your own home? The final bonus is the ability to study from the comfort and familiarity of your own surroundings. Some students even fit online tuition sessions into their free study periods (depending on facilities available at their school)!
