You had probably hoped that you wouldn't need to consider the monetary aspects of educating your child until you got to college age and beyond. In fact, you have probably got savings arrangements in place ready for the expense.
It comes as a bit of a worry then when you learn that your child has fallen behind in a couple of important subjects. So much so that the school is unable to get your child back up to speed; schools are not set up to provide a lot of one to one tutoring. You know these subjects need attention; it's essential that your child gets the right grades otherwise it could affect what college he or she can attend.
Naturally you want the very best education for your child and you know there is only one way you can provide the help needed and that is private tutoring. There are many options available, group tutoring for five or six at a time after school, individual tutoring at a tutoring center, or one to one tutoring at home.
Group tutoring obviously is the least expensive option; but you have to get your child there after school and then get him or her home again. In addition, will group tutoring work as well; there's every chance that your child will need to attend a lot more group classes to reach a certain level than if they were tutored privately.
Individual tutoring at a tutor center sounds fine, but it's more expensive than group tutoring and you still need to work out the commuting. One to one tutoring at home may work out to be the perfect option, and overall may not be as expensive as you might think, so before you dismiss it as being something outside your reach do a little research; you may be pleasantly surprised.
There are several financial considerations to take into account when deciding on the type of extra tutoring to provide for your child. Firstly, while group tutoring at a tutor center is obviously less expensive than some other tutoring arrangements, you need to work out the costs associated with taking your child to and from the tutor center. Take account of the time you have to spend and the extra gas costs; if you work for yourself then you are also likely to be losing money while to do this additional commute.
Secondly, although group tutoring is less expensive than individual tutoring, consider whether you will need to your child to attend more group classes than you would on an individual basis. Only you know your child's ability, how they get on in a group and the best way your child learns. However, you will probably find (and it has been proved many times) your child will respond to one to one tutoring and will learn far quicker than ion a group.
This of course ultimately means that because fewer lessons are required the cost may be similar to your child attending group lessons where more are required to get your child to the correct level.
