Online or in-home — what actually matters
· 3 min read
The format matters less than fit, plan, and whether the tutor knows your child's school context.
Parents ask us which is "better." Wrong question.
Better question: does the tutor know the level, the plan, and the school context? Online and in-home both work when those are right. Both fail when you're paying for generic homework help.
Online works when
- Your child can focus on screen for an hour
- Tutor runs the session with intent — not reading questions off a PDF
- Parent can give a quiet corner
In-home works when
- Younger children need physical presence
- You want tutor to see how they work (messy desk and all)
- You're in a metro we service
What doesn't change
Term plan. Diagnostic first. Classroom-active teachers. Parent loop between sessions.
Enrol and pick what fits your family.
