In the ever-increasing digital world, our Columbus, Georgia-based online tutors know how important it is to wield technology as a tool for academic growth. While many may be skeptical of the effectiveness of digital study, a survey by Bramble offers some interesting insight into online tutoring.
The survey found that 84% of the students surveyed reported that online tutoring proved to be just as effective or more effective than in-person tutoring. Over 73% of parents and 72% of tutors agreed that the students who studied online resulted in higher grades.
It is apparent that online tutoring is here to stay and may even be as beneficial as in-person tutoring. Besides its noted effectiveness, there are a few other big benefits to online tutoring.
-
Convenient and Flexible
One of the most obvious advantages of online tutoring is that it is convenient. Online tutoring eliminates the aspects of travel and rigid schedules by being available anywhere and working around your family’s schedule. In addition, online tutoring is usually more affordable than in-person tutoring so you can save both time and money.
-
Multi-subject Support
While a math tutor may be willing to meet with your student after school, they aren’t able to offer any expertise when your student also needs help with Literature. Online tutoring allows students access to expert help that covers multiple subjects in one session.
-
Personalized Help
Unlike in-person or group tutoring, online tutoring is focused on and personalized to meet your student’s needs. The one-on-one environment requires their participation, while the comfort of working privately and in their own space allows them to feel safe enough to engage in their learning process. Without other students present, there are also fewer distractions and more time to focus on their individual needs.
-
Fosters Independence and Confidence
Online tutoring requires that your student take initiative, be present and participate in order to see academic success. The personalized nature of online tutoring allows students to take control of their studies, and learn at their own pace, and allows the private space for them to grow in their confidence as a student and as a person.
-
Playback Availability
A unique advantage to tutoring in the digital world is the ability to record and playback tutoring sessions. This allows students the opportunity to revisit their sessions as needed, even if they are studying on their own.
