E-tutoring Benefits Aplenty

E-tutoring benefits aplenty

Saves time and money: One of the major benefits of e-tutoring is the saving of time and money. Tutoring costs are generally 30-40% less than those in the US and the UK and on top of that, the students and parents save a lot of time and money on commuting.
Convenience: Rain or shine, the students don’t have to leave their comfy homes for tutoring. They also don’t have to cancel their scheduled appointments with tutors due to tutors
unavailability. It is this convenience factor that is making e-tutoring a fast growing choice for the students.

Subject specialists: Students don’t have to stick to a single tutor. They can hire different specialists for different subjects and topics, and that too with ease.
Anywhere, anytime: Students can go for tutoring from anywhere where they have an internet access, be it a school or public library, cyber café, home, etc. They can have a session at any time suitable to them. Be it midnight or early morning, your tutor is always available.

Instant trouble-shooting: If you are stuck up in a homework question or you need to get ready for tomorrow’s exam, a tutor will be available immediately. So you don’t have to wait for the tutor, you can get them.
Multi-subjects at one place: Students can avail the tutoring in different subjects from one place. They don’t have to search for different subject specialists. A majority of the tutoring companies have the pool of different subject experts. It helps students to save time and money on search and hire.
Highly individualized and customized: Since it is one-on-one tutoring, tutoring is highly customized. The student can set his own pace of learning and do the topics of his choice. There is no pressure on him to finish the topic fast or go slow.
Security: E-Tutoring can be done from highly secured and comfortable environment
of home.
Direct approach: It’s a myth that e-tutoring cannot be that interactive as direct tutoring. But chatting along with VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) makes it feel as if a tutor is sitting next to the student. Moreover, different tools like PowerPoint presentation along with animations, flash movies etc, make these tutoring sessions a great learning experience for the student.
Easy as 1, 2, 3: Most of the tutoring companies are using user-friendly software with highly secured interface. It helps to keep the student’s information confidential without hampering its usability.
Flexibility: Unlike direct tutor tutoring, e-tutoring offers tutoring of any length of time. Students can opt for tutoring sessions of any duration.
