Home or Group Tuition?

[anit]

Do you think it's better to get one-to-one tuiton or in a group?

It depend. if a child is very weak in the subject, then one to one is a best choice. :)

but then i thought having in groups will encourage learning together and motivating each other.

Group tutition is good for average and above student. Otherwise the weaker ones may not be able to catch up with the others. Some tutition centres will do a assessement text for the child and assign them to the right group.:)

I think one on one tuition is better. Kids already have their school classmates for group learning and motivation...

yar true also. but seriously speaking i think these days school stress is really very high. i think i must ask my sis to cut down on my neice tuitions.

it also depends on the subject. i think for languages (Chinese and English), group tuition will be better as it needs interaction and brainstorming (etc, compo) among the students.

as for subjects like Maths, Science, i guess one-to-one will be more beneficial. Anyway, it also very much depends on the child's preference and adaptability :)
