Sometimes a teacher could not find preferable environment and this happens with the student too. Most of the problems are rectified with the help of Education Technology (EdTech). Online tuition can be defined as a method of teaching and learning when a tutor and student are connected to each other with the help of internet and a computer system along with a webcam for a seamless experience. There is a lot of hassle which is generally experienced during teaching offline but in this case, it is none. Generally, one could earn around 60,000 INR per month but the sky is the limit. Here are 10 most important factors which is why one should opt for teaching online and earn a decent amount of money without compromising with time.
Location is a crucial element when it comes to teaching. A specific location could be in favor of a student or tutor or in rare cases, both. It is often problematic to find a synchronized link where both conditions are satisfied. Online tutoring has removed this problem because it provides the way in which both Tutor and Student do not have to be in a specific location, they could be anywhere and the tuition could be facilitated without taking location’s factor in account. Only a good internet connection and a proper device along with relevant accessory are needed for the session to take place.
Another important concerned factor for tuition is time. Both parties i.e., Tutor and Student want the tuition as per their choice of time. As the location’s factor is removed altogether, now a tutor can find interested students with synchronized choice of time with the student. Tutor is free to set the minimum or maximum working hours for a whole day. A tutor could choose between teaching full-time or part-time, as per the need and flexibility.
Online tutoring increases the reach of a tuition because an interested student could be from any country. In offline mode, sometimes a tutor with specific profile is not able to find students because of little to no demand for that profile. With online tuition, tutor does not have to think about the demand of a particular profile because the batches could be of mixed locations so the tutor is not limited to a particular country but, he/she could teach anyone and the student could be from any country.
In conventional method of tutoring, it is not easy to focus on every student because it is time-consuming to take feedback from every student and the method used is not efficient enough. Online tutoring improves the administration because all students can ask questions or discuss at the same time without the possibility of creating disturbance in the environment. The tutor can administer digitally and hence not creating a queue for students to ask questions because they can ask questions concurrently and the tutor can respond in any way suitable.
With offline teaching, assessment of the students could be troublesome because paper based assignments are both time and resource consuming. Online tutoring can help with both time and resource because everything is handled digitally and the tutor can give assignments which could be assessed very efficiently. Automated MCQs could also be given, it would not require the tutor to check every answer and hence saving time and effort.
In offline tutoring, interaction between a tutor and student is affected by various factors, shyness is one of them. These factors are almost removed by online tutoring and self study. It is reported that the students tend to ask questions without shyness or hesitation and because there is no classroom activity, concentration is also improved.
By solving various problems, online tutoring saves a lot of time of both tutor and student. A big part of time is completely removed from the equation because of removal of commuting, saving both time and energy. The tutor does not necessarily have to be in professional attire, he/she could be wearing anything with comfort and hence saving a lot of time and effort. Waiting for students to ask questions one-by-one also increases time consumption; it is removed too. These factors including others, constitute overall efficiency which is improved by a big margin when compared to face-to-face sessions.
Queries and responses are handled digitally and managed efficiently so there is virtually no difference between online and offline modes when it comes to accessibility and delivery of information. In fact, this mode makes it is easier to make multiple copies of the same information and to deliver it.
Making notes in conventional tutoring is a difficult task and saving them for future use is a lot more difficult than that. As every piece of text and graphics is saved digitally, there is no inconvenience at all in saving this information for future use. Notes can be saved on cloud and can be accessed from anywhere in the whole world, leading to better accessibility of information. There is an option for recording the whole session which could benefit the student in revising or clearing any doubts.
With the changing lifestyle, technology and busy schedule, online tuition is in great demand these days. Most of the students are busy in multiple tasks, trying to achieve a specific goal with minimum time. It is often problematic for them to find a suitable tutor in their nearby vicinity and because they’re already busy in extracurricular activities, they want their tutor to be as near as possible. Finding a tutor with desired profile and nearest location often leads to no result that’s why most of the students are migrating towards online tuition. It saves their time and resources without affecting their schedule. In conclusion, teaching online is way more effective than conventional teaching.
