What Are the Benefits of 24-7 Online Tutoring?
Round the clock. Day and night. 24/7.
Skooli offers 24/7 online tutoring, but is it really something your students might need? Is it just a gimmick, or does it help them? Access to 24/7, online tutoring can be a true benefit to your students, and there are concrete reasons why.
For one thing, it offers total access—homework help when a student needs it. Another reason is that 24/7 access is empowering in that it gives students the chance to practice self-guided learning.
Online tutoring has many upfront benefits for both students and educators. For one, it is cost-effective. Lessons can be just as fun and engaging as in-person learning, and they can be scheduled at any time and any place. The pure convenience of online learning makes it worthwhile. Plus, because the location is not an issue, students can choose to work with any educator they like. A tutor can be across the globe, and they can work with any student at almost any time. A student in the U.S. learning Mandarin can work with a tutor in China.
And scheduling is a snap with online tutoring. Anyone who has worked with adolescents knows they like to make their schedules. With online tutoring, there’s nothing to it. Students can work on their own schedules easily.
Empower students with responsibility and the freedom to problem-solve
But there’s an even greater benefit to online learning. It’s not so much what it does, but what it doesn’t do.
Online tutoring, available 24/7, does not force a standardized schedule on students. Rather, it allows for self-directed learning. Online learning allows students to say when they need help and to choose when they want to schedule time with the tutor—and more importantly, when they don’t. This gives students the ability to learn on their own and to solve problems themselves.
Self-guided learning gives students the freedom to problem-solve. They have a chance to see what works and what doesn’t. And when they need help, their tutor can be there. This is the most functional part of online tutoring.
Support your students’ success today with the power of 24-7 online tutoring
Skooli believes that online tutoring is more than just an economical way to give students a little extra help. Online tutoring enables students to have the power to learn on their own, to see their skills grow, and to have support while they do it. 24/7 tutoring is not just a catchphrase—it empowers students and educators to learn and support one another.
