How It's Done
The online tuition process would be interactive and conducted using a laptop or desktop computer. All teaching resources would be shared with the student and this would include the use of Microsoft Word, Adobe PDF’s documents and PowerPoint presentations. YouTube would also be utilised as a regular learning medium.
Capture
Students who participate in online tuition have the added advantage of recapturing images by taking a photo of a document on their smartphone. Handouts or instructions to assist with their tuition are used as an aid to complete homework tasks. The session is also recorded for recap purposes.
1 to 1 Tuition
Face to Face or 1 to 1 tuition is the most common practice in private tuition and some students quite naturally, prefer this method of tutoring as they prefer that in person interaction. They get the added benefit of following YouTube videos etc. via a television monitor linked to a laptop so the content is projected to the TV screen.
Resources
Technology i.e. desktop computers, mobile hard drives etc. are very good tools for saving/retaining/securing teaching resources etc. for re-use in future tuition sessions. Documents, PDF’s PowerPoint presentations etc. can be stored, retrieved and then emailed to students before the planned tuition session.
