5. DOES TUTORING BENEFIT THE CHILDREN?
Certainly, since the tutor interacts individually with your child giving all the attention that she/or he needs. If a child falls behind, the program director will address the issue with the parents and take appropriate measures to fill up the gap. He/she can always ask any kind of doubts that they have any number of times. The teacher tries to build up a rapport with the student and tries to help them reach their goals.
What is an Assessment?
The Assessment is a 'test' to assess your child's ability across the key topics set out at global tutors. We have presented the Assessment in an exam style so we can understand his/her ability topic by topic. The output gives you a guide to your child's actual ability and determines the initial lesson plan for the student.
Please do not help or let others help your child with the Assessment. A false result will generate an unrealistic lesson plan, and disqualify you from our Money Back Guarantee.
Why is an Assessment necessary?
The Assessment allows the GLOBAL Tutors Virtual Tutor to create a unique lesson plan which will cater to the needs of the individual student, a plan that will build confidence in their weaker topics and fortify their stronger ones.
