1.

Ensure the Tuition School you choose offers a plan tailored for your child.

2.

Consider the type of tuition that best suits your child – Group or "One-to-One". A popular misconception is one-to-one tuition always gives the best results. However, a child in individual lessons can become anxious because the scrutiny of the teacher is fully focused on them for the whole lesson. At Master Coaching we have shown time and again, students learn best in small groups with their peers working through the same course. Our analysis and experience shows the most efficient learning occurs in groups of ten students. (How Children Learn)

3.

Environment is very important. Students do not want to be placed in another school environment. Layouts of centres and learning rooms should be investigated. Don’t just telephone for a booking, arrange for an interview at the centre.

4.

Many well known Tuition Schools subscribe to the “cramming” method. This can give good results early on; however, most educators and psychologists agree that cramming leads to an unbalanced childhood.

5.

Be wary of signing tuition agreements. If a service has value, that value is enough to keep you as a client. Master Coaching is the only coaching organisation that offers a complete unconditional money back guarantee for the first four weeks.

6.

The private tutor is often a school teacher or university student looking for extra income. They could be outstanding but how can you judge? There are also ethical and moral dangers and insurance issues that could leave both parties vulnerable.

7.

How much tuition is enough? Children need time to play and develop their social skills and fitness levels. At Master Coaching we have found with as little as one hour per week coaching, with our specially trained staff, your child can achieve outstanding results. Our centres are purpose built to maximise learning . Tuition in one subject will lead to improvements in all other subjects, due to our expertly designed programs and specialised sessions, using the Triple A Learning System.

Always select an organisation registered with the Australian Tutoring Association (ATA)
