The education system in Ukraine is facing challenges that have prompted many students to turn to tutors.
Why are parents forced to pay for extra classes with their children and when should they contact tutors? Let’s find out together!
Reasons why people often turn to a tutor:
● need for personal training;
● missing important school material;
● preparation for exams, for example NMT or GIA;
● poor quality of subject teaching at school.
If a child decides to turn to a tutor, this may indicate that the school education process does not provide an adequate knowledge base. As a rule, the school teacher does not have time to pay attention to everything, so the student, with his questions, turns to the tutor or his teacher outside of class time.
There are situations where the help of a teacher is considered very necessary, an example of which is the preparation for important tests or missing lessons at school, because of which it is difficult for the child to reach the material on his own.
How much does a tutor cost?
On average, a lesson with a tutor costs 250-500 UAH, so if you study 2 times a week, you have to pay more than 2000 UAH/month for just 1 subject.
When it comes to personalized learning, teaching mainly focuses on changing the emphasis. In this version of the educational process, the main thing is the student, and not the standards or requirements of school programs. Individual psychological characteristics, talents, weaknesses and strengths, social environment and cultural context – all these become tools for personalization. And, unfortunately, the average Ukrainian school, perhaps, wants, but cannot ensure the implementation of all these principles.
Fortunately, in Ukraine there are many specialized online schools that combine an individual approach and a school curriculum.
The most popular of these is the Alternative Online School. It is a remote school that provides complete secondary education from grade 1 to 11 (12) and issues state-issued documents.
Unlike a classical school, “Alternative” specializes in distance education, so all educational material looks bright and interesting for modern youth. An important advantage is that in an online school, a student can study anywhere at a time that is convenient for him. And open access to video lessons, even from the last year of study, always allows you to repeat old material or understand any topic in more detail.
In addition, “Alternative” provides feedback from teachers who will always explain incomprehensible material in a personal chat or in free online consultations. Also a good bonus is the availability of additional courses and video lessons, for example, for each class there are alternative lessons filmed in bright locations on informative topics. The school provides courses to prepare for the State Examination and External Examination, which are also free.
The cost of education in such a school is up to 1600 UAH/month for secondary education. However, the “Alternative” provides many discounts, for example: 99% discount for children of military personnel, 50% for displaced persons and from 20 to 50% for other preference categories, which makes training comfortable and affordable.
