8 reasons by Hamish
- You don't click with your teacher - sometimes people just think too differently and can't find a way to communicate effectively. With a tutor you can find a way that works for both of you
- You feel overlooked with so many others in the class - teachers have to spread their attention over a lot of students and sometimes they can give more to some than others. A tutor can focus all of their attention on you
- You want to take the next step - you might find that your classwork is too easy and you want an extra challenge. With tuition you can look at work that will push you more
- Your class moves too quickly and you can't keep up - teachers have to get through a lot of work in a small amount of time. It can be easy to fall behind when things move so quickly. Tuition gives you the opportunity to take your time to get things right
- You feel lost and don't know what's happening in class - if you missed something early on in a topic it can make everything afterwards confusing. A tutor can help you understand those keys to unlocking the whole puzzle
- There's something in particular you want help with but your class had moved on - your class might have moved on to a new topic but you were still stuck in an earlier one. Since a tutor only has to focus on you they can help you work through the earlier topic while you keep moving forward in class
- You want to supplement your in class learning - in class you learn how to do things, but you might also be interested in why that works. A tutor can take you into more detail about the extra things that your teacher just doesn't have time for
- You feel awkward asking for help in class - it can feel embarrassing to ask for help when everyone else seems to get it. With a tutor no one else will know what questions will have so you can feel more comfortable asking for help
