What should you expect from your tutor?
What should you expect from your tutor?
By Marcus Ong (Senior Tuition Coordinator, We Care Tuition Agency)
If you are searching for a tutor now, you should consider how you should make a wise selection of a tutor so that your expectations are met. There are several tuition agencies in Singapore that offers matching services of tutors to students. With the wide range of tutors you will need to consider carefully the best choice of tutor for your child so that you get the maximum benefits.
Qualifications of Tutor
You will need to know how qualified your tutor is before you can hire the tutor. Obviously, you do not expect an O levels holder to teach a JC student. Trust is good but I suggest caution is the best solution. Always verify the identity of the tutor who turns up for tuition using the following method. You should verify the credentials against the identity card of the tutor to be sure that the tuition agency has sent the correct person to your place. You do not wish to find out only after your child’s exams that your tutor is less qualified than expected. Ask confidently and you should really be cautious of agencies that refuse to accede to your request or tutors who keep forgetting to bring their documents down to your place. All these are warning signs that your tutor may not be qualified to teach at all.
Charges of Tutor
Different tutors have different charges just as lawyers and other professionals. The trained teachers definitely command the highest fees because they are familiar of the syllabus and will be able to help your child navigate through the syllabus with little ease. The good ones are able to inspire at the same time and they will know which areas are commonly tested in exams. Thus, we cannot expect such tutors to be cheap because cheap tutors are usually cheap for a reason in the first place. Thus, you may like to ask the tuition agency to explain why a tutor is charging a certain fee. You may like visit our site too at www.wecaretuition.com to understand the different charges of tutors.
Your tuition budget.
When you hire the services of a tuition agency, you should be honest about your budget for tuition so that the correct tutor can be allocated to you. With other financial demands on your family, I feel that there is no need to spend a bomb on tuition alone. In most instances, the tuition coordinators will advise you accordingly the type of tutor you can hire based on your budget. For example, our agency www.wecaretuition.com believes in value for money. All the coordinators are trained well to send the correct tutor down for each budget given.
Tutor’s style
This is the most important factor that you will have to consider. You will need to know which style of teaching suits your child best. Do you want your tutor to drill your child or you like your tutor to do a question and answer-based methodology? Do you like your tutor to replace your child’s teacher completely or you just like your tutor to complement your child’s teacher. You will need to be honest so that the correct tutor can be matched to your child. Remember, all children have different learning styles and you will need the tutor to help you discover your child’s learning style.
