Tuition agencies ensure that they have the best private tutors on board to provide the best for students in need for help. In this day and age, education has become much complex (as compared to how it was a decade or so ago) and this is purely because times have changed, and more competition has risen, creating a situation of the “survival of the fittest” today. Students are unfortunately finding it more difficult to perform well in exams as the questions being asked are heavily knowledge application-based and requires critical-thinking skills. Hence the reason why tuition has gained a great amount of importance and many can’t do without it!

So, what is the role of private tutors in tuition agency?
#1: GUIDANCE
Guidance is of utmost importance especially when students are unsure and lost in track in their learning journey. Students are still discovering what works for them and which learning technique helps them to learn at the optimal level and hence students need some sort of expert’s guidance and advice to cope with so much that goes on.

Often times the lack of proper guidance is what causes students to end up being stressed and depressed and this perpetuates the cycle of underperforming. This vicious cycle could take a toll on the confidence of these students and this may adversely affect them in areas beyond education.
#2: COMPASSION
It can be unfair sometimes when the typical late bloomers are being put down at times by the criticisms of their peers and on top of that when parents get disappointed with bad grades, the process of recovering from that feeling of failure becomes even more difficult. At moments like these, tuition teachers are the best individuals who can show some compassion and explain to students that failure is part of the journey of learning.
School teachers (some of them) may have a better time teaching the students who are already excelling, and they may not have the patience or sufficient time to help every single student in the group of those who underperform. This may seem like a dismissive gesture and students often end up feeling unmotivated. Compassion is necessary for students to gain confidence and realise that one bad grade is not the “end of the world”.
#3: EXPERT TEACHING
Private tutors are mostly well-trained, and they concentrate on their expertise; they gain experience of teaching specific subjects and education level. These experiences equip them with specific sets of teaching skills and gives them the skill of observing a student and customising the teaching process accordingly to meet the student’s need.

This targeted approach is lacking in school teaching mostly because it is not possible to cater to each and every student’s learning needs. It is essential to understand that different types of teachers have different set of expertise. Some tutors who are undergraduates may be young and amicable, ex-MOE tutors may be formal, but their teaching would be targeted precisely to meet the demands of the education system, and there is so more.
#4: MOTIVATION
For any student, motivation and inspiration is the key to success and achieving beyond expectations. When private tutors motivate their students there is a constant push of support (academically and emotionally) which drives them to perform at their best.
Should a student feel insecure and doubtful, and fear examinations, it may cause them to stop working hard. This can be a dangerous path as it will be challenging for students to pick themselves up thereafter and excel despite the hurdles. A bunch of motivational words every now and then will be of great support and this enables students to remain focused in t
#5: TRUST
Tuition agencies aim to provide the best and beyond a shadow of a doubt, students trust their tutors and they develop a sense of trust for themselves which enables them to get through education and examinations with a clearer mindset.
Trust is such an important quality and this is what gives us the conviction in the things we do. Private tutors’ guidance will be a great support and help when it is coupled with trust and conviction and the process of learning can do wonders. The tuition experience would be something students would never forget in their lives; the memories will always be cherished.
IN CONCLUSION
Though the education system evolves in this complexity over the years, this does not mean that it is impossible to succeed. Adapting and adjusting to the changes require effort and expert guidance; which is what private tuition is all about. It is a better option for students to seek help at the start before things get too late!
