PROS AND CONS OF ONLINE TUITION
2
Online tuition is where tuition is conducted
through the use of a video call app between a
teacher and the student. The pandemic has forced
the majority of us to seek education online.

Pros

• Online tuitions are more affordable compared to
  in-person sessions.
• A review of most tuition centers vs online PSLE
  tuitions now shows that the online mode is
  cheaper on average. This is likely due to the
  lack of the need for travel. The initial setup
  cost (a computer system, webcam, microphone,
  digital pen etc.) is negligible compared to the
  savings (travel expenses etc.).
•  Convenient timings and extra lessons can be
  arranged more easily - no hassle of travel!
• Many parents like to be present for their child's
  tuition time, or arrange for someone else to be
  in the house for safety. With online tutoring,
  there is no need for a parent to juggle their
  schedules as much.

Pros

•  Video infographics
• Infographics play a crucial role in e-learning.
  Professionally created infographics are used to
  teach students e-learning content, in subjects
  ranging from the simple to the highly complex.
  Infographics share information in a visual
  medium the appealing design and visual
  presentation of subject matter help infographics
  make e-learning effective.
• Game-Based Learning
• Every tutor has a different approach to teaching
  online. Some tutors will design the lesson plans
  based on knowledge of their students learning
  styles and preferences. The more an online tutor
  knows about the students strengths, the more the
  tutor can help the students during the session.
  Especially when it comes to math, some tutors use
  charts, pictures, and other fun math tools to
  make math seem more like an enjoyable and
  challenging game, rather than a dreaded task.

Pros

• Tests and Quizzes for Effective Learning
• Conducting short tests and quizzes can be helpful
  for online tutors to assess how well their
  students are grasping the concepts of math. If an
  online tutor measures the progress of students by
  conducting regularly scheduled tests or quizzes,
  the result can be a great increase in their
  confidence levels.
• Asynchronous Tutoring
• Students can now opt for Asynchronous Tutoring
  wherein an Expert Tutor, whod otherwise be
  unavailable for hundreds of students wanting to
  learn from a master on the subject, can post
  pre-recorded classes or tutorials online.
  Students can come back with specific queries
  later.

Cons

• Need a Good Working Computer
• In order to conduct Singapore online
  tuition smoothly, students would have to have a
  good working computer. A microphone and webcam
  are also required. While most laptops have these
  inbuilt, not everyone has access to these.
  There's also the question of giving the
  responsibility of maintaining expensive devices
  to young children.
• Connectivity/Technical issues
• Live sessions are conducted over the internet.
  Online tuition is vulnerable to weak connection,
  interference, latency or other technical issues.
  Valuable time will be wasted trying to diagnose
  and solve the issue. You will also still be
  liable to pay for the full duration of the
  lesson. Worse still, if the problem is on the
  tutors side and the tutor is unable to diagnose
  and fix immediately.

Cons

• Tough to control student behavior
• Online tutoring cannot help a student who is
  unwilling to learn. Parents may need to monitor
  tutoring sessions to make sure that a student is
  paying attention or trying to get better with
  each passing day.
• There are different learning goals for each
  tuition PSLE english tuition in Singapore, PSLE
  maths tuition in Singapore, PSLE science tuition
  in singapore.
• Parents need to make an informed decision.
• We hope this list helps you to do just that
