Online Tutoring

WhizKidz Tutoring offers stability with top-notch educational opportunities to keep students on pace with school goals and achievements.

What is Online Tutoring?

Using the standard dictionary definition, a tutor is a person who offers individual or small group instruction. So, tutoring, therefore, means offering instruction. Rather than teaching, a tutor works online to aid students and guide them to become independent learners.

When applying tutoring principles to the virtual world, online tutoring incorporates all the benefits of in-person tutoring services. The tutors at WhizKidz Tutoring combine extensive content knowledge with the ability to connect with students.

Online tutoring for kids does present some additional challenges, but it is also a very effective way to connect with students who would otherwise miss out on a valuable opportunity.

Benefits of Individual Tutoring Online

Aside from just offering assistance within a specific subject area, online tutoring provides many additional benefits:

• Improves the student’s attitude toward studying

• Aides in personal growth

• Improves academic performance

• Provides in-depth, intensive concentration within a subject area

• It helps students move toward self-directed learning

• Self-paced learning is based on each student’s needs

• Individualized to concentrate on student growth

• Improves confidence and self-esteem

Every student can benefit from working with a tutor online.

How WhizKidz Conducts Tutoring Online

WhizKidz Tutoring provides services for students from Pre-K and Kindergarten through College. Our highly competent tutors are knowledgeable in many subject areas. Online tutoring can be one-on-one or as part of a small group through our group tutoring.

Tutoring sessions can be 30, 45, or 60 minutes, or longer if necessary. WhizKidz works closely with New York schools to assist with distance learning. As needed, students may meet with tutors weekly, bi-weekly, or on a pre-arranged schedule.

Types of Online Tutoring Sessions

Online tutoring can be individualized, with one student to one tutor or two to six students in a small group setting.

Individual Online Tutoring

Individual tutoring can benefit any student that requires assistance. Although the pandemic has created a more immediate need for online tutoring, students can continue to receive help once things settle into the familiar routine.

WhizKidz Tutoring offers services for Pre-K through the college level, including test prep. With certified specialists in various subject areas, individual online tutoring is a great option for any student. In addition to the benefits mentioned above, individualized online tutoring offers:

• Tailored sessions

• Building on classroom instruction to enhance subject-matter knowledge

• Help with specific projects or subjects

• Skill development

Whether your Pre-K student needs help with speech therapy or your high school student is struggling with composition, WhizKidz Tutoring has a solution.

Group Online Tutoring

Some students function better in a small group learning environment. Group tutoring with WhizKidz offers an excellent alternative to individual tutoring. Groups usually are two to six students in the same age group working within the same subject area.

The small group setting allows student interaction and completing group projects and activities online. Group tutoring includes all the benefits of individualized tutoring with the added benefits of virtual socialization.

A tutor will build on classroom lessons from the grade-level curriculum within the group online setting. Sessions can be tailored to what works best for the group members, including teaching methods and materials. Students within the group often help one another understand concepts.

Group tutoring is available for students from the Pre-K level through college prep.
