Frequently Asked Questions
How many students are there in small group tutoring?
Small group tutoring Is also possible at one of the students’ home. For instance, a tutor can teach 2 students (max 3 students) at the same time. Call to find out more.
How does a typical lesson like?
For one to one tutoring, it will be individually tailored to the student's needs. Lessons can be face to face at student's/tutor's home or online. With online lessons, we will be using online tools such as Zoom, Skype, Hangout, Whatsapp or combination of these. Typically, the tutor would go through key points of a topic and provide a summary. They will go through questions (guided practice) which are appropriate to the level of the student. Practising questions are important to test the student's understanding of the topic. Where appropriate and if student's schedule permits, homework will also be assigned to the student. Students will also be taught the most effective and appropriate method to study the subject.
How much is the fees and payments?
Fees depend on whether it is one to one private tutoring or small group tutoring (for students around Antwerp). Usually, fees depend on a few factors such as which grade the student is in, subject & duration. Typically, a session is 2 hours duration. Feel free to email or call us for enquiry. At the beginning of each calendar month, Dr Ship Tutoring will send invoice for advance payment to the parents. Any unused sessions will be carried forward to the next month or refunded in case of no more lessons.
Will the pace of the lessons be suited to my child?
The tutor will pitch the lesson level and pace according to the profile of the students. Those requiring more help will be given more targeted and appropriate coaching.
