Online tutoring is a valuable resource for students of all ages and abilities, but there are still many misconceptions about what it is and how it works. At Easy as Pi, we use document cameras and computer-adaptive diagnostic assessments to provide high-quality, personalized tutoring services to our clients. Here, we'll dispel three common myths about online tutoring.
Myth 1: Online tutoring is less effective than in-person tutoring.
Many people believe that the lack of face-to-face interaction makes online tutoring less effective, but this couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, online tutoring can be just as effective as in-person tutoring, if not more so, as it allows for greater flexibility and access to a wider range of resources and tutors. With the use of document cameras, our tutors can easily share and explain visual aids and written materials, making the learning experience just as interactive as in-person.
Many parents are hesitant to try online tutoring because of their experience with remote learning. While we understand their reluctance, it's very important to note that remote learning during the pandemic provide a great deal of challenges because of how it was hastily implemented. Districts did not provide teachers with adequate notice for planning, resources or training.
Myth 2: Online tutoring is only for students who are struggling in school.
This myth likely stems from the idea that only struggling students need extra help, but the truth is that online tutoring can benefit students of all abilities. Our computer-adaptive diagnostic assessments help our tutors to identify each student's strengths and weaknesses, and our personalized approach ensures that each student is challenged at the right level to help them achieve their full potential.
Myth 3: Online tutoring is only for certain subjects.
Many people believe that online tutoring is limited to math and science, but this is not the case. We offer tutoring in a wide range of subjects, from language arts and social studies to math and science, as well as standardized test preparation. With the help of our experienced and qualified tutors, students can receive expert guidance in any subject they need.
At Easy as Pi, our goals is to ensure that our students receive the best possible tutoring experience no matter how we provide our services.
