So, what exactly is group tuition? Group tuition is when one teacher, trained teaching assistant, or tutor works with a group of two to five pupils together. This type of arrangement enables the teaching to be more focused on a smaller number of learners, and it usually takes place in a separate classroom or working area. It is one of the most popular categories of private tuition.
Reasons Group Tuition is Helpful
1. It boosts the confidence of students.
Group tuition can help to keep students on track by providing a sense of friendly competition and motivation among their peers. When students are given a confidence boost, they’re more likely to become active learners – enjoying school and tuition lessons in the process!
2. It makes tuition less scary
Some students may feel intimidated by one-to-one tuition, however, small group tuition can provide a more supportive and relaxed environment for your child. During lessons, students are encouraged to interact with one another and have meaningful conversations. This would make tuition lessons less stressful and more enjoyable for your child.
3. Cost-effective and efficient
Group tuition can be more affordable for parents – especially those with more than one child – as compared to one-to-one tuition.
4. Improves social skills and communication
During group discussions, students have the opportunity to practice expressing their thoughts and ideas in a way that their peers can understand. This valuable skill will help them to communicate more effectively both inside and outside of the classroom.
5. Encourages group discussion
When in group tuition, tutors may incorporate discussion sessions for students to share their own opinions, answers, and ideas with the rest of the class. This helps students to cultivate critical and analytical thinking skills. It also opens the door for more in-depth discussions to explore a student’s point of view. All of this allows for a more well-rounded learning experience that engages all students in the classroom, not just those who feel comfortable speaking up right away.
Conclusion:
If you are looking for a tutor for your child, then you might want to consider the benefits of group tuition. Group tuition is ideal for students who want to work with a teacher who is available to them on a regular basis, especially if they are taking longer courses and need more support. Group tuition can also be beneficial for students who are studying more than one subject, especially if they are learning similar topics and need guidance with the differences. A tutor will also be able to support students with specific needs and requirements, or who need a lot of extra help. By having a tutor who is able to work with them on a regular basis, students can feel more comfortable asking for help and support when they need it.

What do we think are the most important subjects to be taught to our children? Our rights and responsibilites really should be pretty high up the list in my opinion. The other day I was walking our dog in the park and was pretty horrified by the amount of rubbish that had been abandoned by evening party-makers. Thankfully, for me, my morning was saved by a little boy who said what I’d been thinking…”why do people do this!” He then told me that his family are members of a litter picking group and they’d been out clearing plastic bottles from local hedges a couple of days earlier.
It made me think of a fabulous group called 38 Degrees. Now I’m not promoting them, although I do think that what they do is fabulous, but I do love their idiology. Their names comes from “the angle at which snowflakes come together to form an avalanche”; a single voice or a single action CAN make a difference and even more so when those singles are added together!
We need to understand that our planet should be looked after, properly. We need to learn that alongside every other important need in our lives. Children are incredible. They learn fast and they learn early. Let’s guide them well. Join The Complete Works in making a difference!

Growing as a person is, I think, all about the bigger picture.
I watched last night’s US Open tennis final. Simply wow.
Mixed in with all of the other details it was interesting to hear the match comentator (a grand slam winner) saying that they, like one of the girls, had been told at school to pull back on tennis to concentrate on their academic studies. She said, with a smile in her voice, “I ignored the advice too”.
These girls’ resilience started early! Joy taken from a hobby is just as important as the rest of the jigsaw puzzle. The whole person is the whole point. Well done for ALL of the hard work!
