Encouraging online tutoring.

Online experiences more than just a passive lesson.  A bond is developed whereby no question is ever a 'silly' question whilst catering for all learning styles and abilities. The key to success is feeling comfortable with your tutor.

During my online sessions I strive ensure that those children who are anxious about being in a group build self-assurance in a safe environment.  My aim is to ensure that every child grows in confidence and is provided with new knowledge and a love of learning.

Introduction

1. Excellent tuition in the comfort of your own home.
2. One less journey to add to an already hectic schedule.
3. Access the course from anywhere in the world.
4. Perfect for children who feel anxious or nervous about starting new things.

Online tutoring has never been so accessible with technology creating new opportunities to learn. I have listed a couple of ways technology and the internet make learning online the new method of choice for some families.

Use of online whiteboards and screen sharing are very inclusive and simple teaching and learning tools, for example, help visually demonstrate concepts, open discussion about specific phrases or paragraphs of text.

A quiet learning environment, without the potential anxiety of a face-to-face meeting going into a strange place with a lot of new faces can be very daunting.

Competitive peer pressure is reduced, and a more independent learning discipline is established.

Children are more in control with online lessons and so feel more empowered in a relaxed environment.

Children nowadays are used to an online world and all the technology associated with online lessons and are therefore able to learn well this way.
