At Principal Tutors, all tuition is offered via online sessions as we believe online tutoring is the most effective and efficient way to connect tutors with students. A suitable device that is able to
receive the online session and sufficient bandwidth is all the technology required to access online tuition. Although the session is facilitated with the use of technology, the tuition is in real-time, with a real person, and the primary medium of learning is the interaction between the tutor and the student. Online learning combines all of the benefits of one-to-one tuition with the added convenience and ease of the online world. The technology involved does not replace the human interaction between a tutor and a student, it simply provides the most efficient space in which that interaction can occur.
Online tutoring creates a virtual learning space that is adaptable and convenient for both tutor and student. Critically, it takes away the constraints of geography and means that the student can access the expertise of tutors across the entire country, making it even easier to match the right tutor to the specific needs of the individual student. Online tutoring also allows for greater flexibility in scheduling. It eliminates the added logistical consideration of ensuring a suitable shared study -location and takes away the time spent having to travel to that location. Consequently, this means a wider range of time slots can be made available, making it even easier to fit tuition sessions into busy lifestyles.
Online tutoring allows sessions to take place in an environment where the student feels most comfortable and has the benefit of being less intrusive as it does not require inviting someone into your home or having to visit the home of another. The technology involved with online learning is constantly evolving and has become highly effective as it allows files and documents to be shared easily and interactive elements to be worked on in real time with instant feedback. Furthermore, sessions can be recorded on request, allowing students to refer back to their tuition session in a way just not possible with face-to-face tuition.
It is an exciting world where the possibilities for empowering and enabling students to reach their fullest potential are now more achievable than ever. With increasing numbers of parents recognising the benefits of additional tuition in helping their child's learning and growing their confidence, there has never been a better time to explore what online tuition can provide for your child.
