Online Tutoring Companies
One of the most popular online tutoring companies out there is Tutor.com. This site has tons of tutors on hand that can give you instant assistance in almost any topic. This is particularly nice if you are at home working on your homework and you are pulling your hair out trying to figure out a difficult problem or concept. Right now they are running a special promotion where your first 25 minutes are free. Definitely worth checking out!
Tutor.com has a number of good articles on Surviving Math Class. I would particularly recommend How to Make Math Homework Fun. While not every assignment is going to be fun, it is good to think about different ways to make Math Fun.
Some pros to this kind of tutoring experience:
- Lots of resources at your fingertips
- Instant access to an expert from the comfort of your own home
- Don't have to schedule appointments in advance
- Saves on travel expenses
The cons:
- It can be more difficult to stay committed because there isn't the same ongoing accountability.
- Monitoring your spending requires closer scrutiny.
- Another pitfall to avoid is signing up for a service and then not using it. This is easier to do if you don't actually meet someone in person.
A few suggestions if you are considering one of these online Math Tutoring companies:
- Read the fine print.
- Look around. There are many great online tutoring companies. Make sure you find the one that is right for you.
- See what other customers are saying about there experience.
- Utilize free trial periods, but don't forget to cancel the service at the end of the free trial if you decide you don't want to continue.
