Why hire a tutor?
More students are seeing private tutors in Canada in recent years to provide an academic edge in their education. Parents are turning to private tutors as a cost effective alternative to expensive private schools to enhance their child's education.[1] Tutors can provide remedial support, improve the grades of average students, help with college or university entrance, or enrichment for gifted students.
Some of the benefits to a student who has a tutor include:
- Better understanding of class material.
- Higher self esteem and confidence in what students do at school, and in their lives.
- Less stress and anxiety.
- Make learning easier, and fun!
- Increased time for extra curricular activities while improving grades.
