In home tutoring

In Home Tutoring is a form of tutoring that occurs in the home. Tutoring is receiving guidance or instruction by a Tutor. Most often the tutoring relates to an academic subject or test preparation. This is in contrast to tutoring centers or tutoring provided through after school programs. The service most often involves one on one attention provided to the pupil.

Benefits

In home tutoring services dispatch a qualified tutor directly to the client with no need to drive anywhere. Children get an individualized program. Not a pre-determined one that all kids that age use, but one that is specifically designed for the child's unique needs. A tutor can address any special needs and work to ensure that the pupil is getting help in those areas that need the most attention. [http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=27157]

Criticism

With the large variety of tutoring companies a prospective client should be careful when choosing a company. Some companies use substandard tutors and with little regard to the actual achievement of the pupil. [http://www.tutoringdirect.com/what_you_should_know.htm]

No Child Left Behind

Parents can take advantage of the No child left behind act to qualify for free tutoring for their child. A company must be registered as a suplmentary educational services (SES) provider. The child must meet state qualifications that often involve attendance of a failing no child left behind school and poor grades. When the child is qualified the US government will pay for the tutoring.
