Benefits of Online Tutoring

At Tutor Corps, we combine customized content, personalized learning strategies, and compassionate mentorship to help students understand not only what they need to know, but how to learn. Our approach includes a mix of content support, study skills development and mentorship, all delivered live and 1:1.

According to Brown University, emerging evidence indicates that virtual tutoring is just as effective as in person tutoring, and students and tutors have greater flexibility within the virtual setting (Example: a student needs to suddenly meet a bit later on a given day is more likely to still get their session in because tutors are typically able to more easily accommodate virtual schedule shifts if needed).

Benefit of 1:1 Tutoring

It has been empirically proven that 1:1 tutoring is the most effective form of tutoring, allowing for targeted intervention, especially when the tutoring is consistent.

1:1 tutoring allows for relationship building. It is much harder for tutors to deliver effective individualized instruction if they have to tutor more than one student at a time.

Efficacy of Online Instruction

Emerging evidence indicates that virtual tutoring is just as effective as in person tutoring.

And, online instruction better allows for the possibility of a tutor continuing with a student over several years, which is helpful because “ensuring students have a consistent tutor over time facilitates positive tutor-student relationships and a strong understanding of students’ learning needs.

Research has proven that high-dose tutoring is extremely effective for students who are struggling; 3+ tutoring sessions a week is the golden standard recommendation if a student is really struggling.
