The Benefits Of Online Tuition

As we go further into the 21st century, technology has become more and more advanced. This has in turn heralded a shift from traditional face to face business to an increasingly online way of doing things. Education ,and particularly tuition, has been affected by this transformation in recent years. 

 As competition to secure university places has grown more fierce, students are increasingly going online to find their tutor of choice. Some may be initially hesitant to do online tuition as it is a relatively new teaching arena. However, to the initiated, it can provide a viable alternative to face to face tuition. Indeed some people actually prefer it for a number reasons. 

1) Many tutors reduce their hourly rate for online lessons and so pupils can benefit from the reduction in cost.

2) Pupils can benefit from choosing tutors from a wider talent pool. With face to face tuition, you are limited to a small radius nearby where you live.

3) Many times online tuition provide mores convenient scheduling. As the tutor does not have to travel, they may have more availability.

4) Some people find it awkward letting a stranger into their house and may feel obliged to clean frantically before each visit. All that can be avoided with online tuition.

Some may be concerned that some of the teaching quality is lost in the online setting. However many online tutors would testify that they are able to deliver just as effective a lesson as in the face to face setting. There are many online education platforms on the market today with the ability to write and draw on screen using an interactive whiteboard.  These state of the art platforms also allows past papers and other documents to be shared in real time. These can then be annotated to deliver a highly effective teaching experience. All classes can be recorded and reviewed later to aid in revision.

With these advances in technology it is safe to say that online tuition has multiples benefits. It is indeed a viable alternative to the traditional model of face to face tuition.
