Considering a private tutor? Whatever the reason and whatever your level, finding the right tutor can help improve your skills and knowledge. Whether it’s homework, exam help or general tutoring classes, a tutor will put you, the student, at the centre of the learning process.
Private lessons can mean faster progression and tailored lesson plans. It is, therefore, easier to find your place and assert yourself in this context of learning. You will gain confidence, trust and above all, benefit from the right expertise. A tailored schedule will also help you organise your lessons and develop autonomy over your learning.
In other words, a tutor can fill in the gaps of your learning or simply provide basic knowledge about subjects you have always been interested in! And, Superprof has a variety of subjects and tutors, so you can find the lessons that most suit you.
Every student has particular needs. An experienced teacher will be able to restore the taste for a subject when difficulties could create a mental block. The fear of maths, for example, is very common among students!
Have you always been interested in science but never knew where to begin? Do you want to learn a new language but have a fear of speaking? Or are you passionate about music but never learnt those favourite guitar chords?
A private tutor can make assessments on your level and knowledge base and propose personalised support to make your lessons a success. Whether for one-time help or weekly classes, an experienced tutor will bring out the best in you, building constructive momentum to reach your potential.
Over the years, academic support and private lessons have become essential for many students. Contrary to popular belief, they are not reserved only for students who are failing.
Private lessons can vary in price. On Superprof, we offer private lessons for around RM25 to RM50 per hour, but there are also cheaper options available. Each tutor sets their rates at a price that reflects their experience and qualifications.
Of course, if you learn with a tutor who is still a student at university, or learn with a tutor near your home, you can reduce your costs, as experienced tutors usually charge more for lessons, and take out travel costs from the equation.
Looking for cheaper lessons and want to avoid travel costs? Why not consider online lessons?
Tutors who offer tutoring lessons are usually equipped to teach remotely, and are familiar with the latest tools and apps that make learning fun and engaging.
Additionally, online classes can be a great way to find a tutor quickly. Superprof has a large community of tutors who provide lessons for all ages and levels, and by learning via webcam, you don’t have to trouble yourself with finding a teacher in your area.
Online lessons can be a cheaper and more convenient way to learn. No need to travel or limit your tutor search, and with Superprof, you have thousands of diverse profiles at your fingertips.
