The benefits of tutoring in small groups
Students who actively participate in small group discussion are more likely to learn and retain more information.
Unlike the larger class sizes in schools, small group tuition ensures there are fewer or even no distractions to allow quality teaching and learning.
It builds confidence and self-esteem as students learn to collaborate and work with peers. Good confidence in school work means better outcomes for students!
Group discussions can expose students to a diversity of ideas and opinions that contribute to a better understanding of the content of the course.
Reinforced Learning: small group tutoring allows students extra time to cover the content of the curriculum studied at school to consolidate their knowledge and apply it accordingly in exams and assignments.
The Tutor can easily identify weaknesses in students in a small group setting which in turn allows them to focus on improving their knowledge and skills.
In small groups, a tutor will revise more content than in a larger classroom setting and adapt to the individualised methods that work best with the students.
