The decision of whether to provide private tutoring to children can be a difficult decision for many parents, especially in the current economic climate. Here we put forwards five ways in which your child can benefit from private tutoring to help you make up your mind as to whether it is the right option for you.
Highlight weaknesses
It is very difficult for most people to recognise where their weaknesses lie. Private tutoring provides the opportunity for a qualified person to not only take a look at a student’s ability in terms of specific topics, but also look at the ways in which they study. This enables them to make suggestions to the pupil as to what areas they should focus their attention on and also to give them study tips.
Getting involved
As your child improves their knowledge and becomes more confident they are more likely to get involved in lessons and put forwards their ideas. The extra involvement in class means that they will not only gain benefit from the private tutoring sessions, but will also maximise learning whilst at school.
The knock on effect to study
Studies have shown the private tutoring in a specific subject can have a knock on effect in other subjects. This may seem common sense for a subject like maths, which can be applied to other subjects such as science and business studies. However, there is also evidence to suggest that tuition in one subject can improve performance in subjects that are completely unrelated. The belief is that this kind of impact occurs due to improved confidence and learning skills within the child.
Increasing education options
The ability of your child to better learn greatly improves their chances of securing good grades. Obviously this helps to open doors in terms of securing the places that they may desire at certain colleges and universities. Considering the fact that applications for further education settings have never been higher; there is a real need for our children to secure the very best grades that they are capable of.
Improving work opportunities
Not all school leavers are interested in going into further education and some are much more geared towards going straight into the workplace. However, that doesn’t mean that private tutoring can’t be of benefit to them. The current economic climate means that competition for jobs is fierce and applications have never been higher. This means that prospective employers are able to demand more from applicants than in the past and those without decent grades will struggle to even get to the interview stage.
