Advantages: 

1. Personalised Tutoring Plan

  • Unlike a group tuition classes, private tuition provides the freedom for the tutor to tailor a tutoring plan specially to suit your child’s learning pace and needs.
  • A less stressful learning process for your child – No added pressure to keep up with the rest of the class and tutor can provide more time and attention to areas of improvement.

2. 100% Attention from Tutor

  • Undivided attention and focus given to your child will enable the tutor to quickly better identify areas of improvement and provide a targeted approach to the learning.
  • A less stressful environment for children who are less likely to ask questions in class when they have doubts.
  • Get accurate feedback from the tutor on the learning progress of your child!

3. Convenient and Less Time Consuming

  • Let your child enjoy the process of learning in the comfort of his own home! Parents are welcome to join in the class!
  • Save on the logistics and time of sending your child to a tuition class.
  • Flexibility on arranging a replacement class in event of missed classes.

Disadvantages:

1. Cost

  • Group tuition classes enjoy economies of scale due to their size. However, with “pay as you use” fee format, you will never again have to worry about missed lessons and difficulties in arranging for replacement classes!

2. Over-Reliance on Tutor

  • There is the risk of over dependency on the tutor for learning and less reliant on self discovery. However, this can easily be overcome by developing a keen interest in the language and its culture; thereby sparking the curiosity of your child to discover more about the language independently!

In conclusion, there are many differing views on the pros and cons of private and group tuition. Still sitting on the fence? It is important to first understand your child’s learning preference and ability. After that, the decision would be obvious.

      Some Factors to Consider:

  • Does your child excel in a group tuition class environment?
  • Does friendly competition in a group tuition class environment spur your child to perform better in the language?
  • Is your child having difficulties keeping up with the learning pace in a group tuition class environment?
  • When in doubt, does your child feel intimidated to ask questions in a group tuition class environment?
  • Does your child easily lose focus by distractions in a group tuition class environment?
