Education
in this era becomes more challenging than it used to be. Why do I say so?
Because students nowadays have higher demands to reach their realistic goals,
and not to mention about the obstacles they should face. Let me take one
obstacle as example which is technology. As we all know that technology has
some benefits, but here I will focus on one of them which is as the entertain
for people, such as games. That’s the reason why most students prefer
technology to books and why most students’ academic performance become worse. Due
to that, parents are sure to be worried, they will find the way how to make
their children’s academic performance better. Based on the survey that I did, the
first thing coming to most parents’ minds to overcome the problem is tutorial
course, since it is very mushrooming nowadays, right? According to a web in
internet, tutorial course is a class conducted by a tutor for one student or a
small number of students and this way of study results in good effects. Taking
a tutorial course causes the students to have scheduled study hours, improve
their academic performance, and be goal-oriented.
Having scheduled study hours is the
first advantage of taking a tutorial course. Many students say that it is an
utterly hard thing to study after school. They would play game or go to
somewhere else before going home rather than study, review the lessons they
just got that day, or do their homeworks. Consequently, they just study in
school. However, with nowadays challenges and demands, studying only in school
is not always effective, is it? Remembering how hard to get successful in the
future when present education is challenging. Therefore, I can say that studying
after school is needed, and tutorial course has the answer for it. Tutorial
course makes the students have scheduled study hours. Having scheduled study
hours definitely will make students easier to pursue their dreams. They have to
get used to struggle and manage time well, which are the keys to success.
The academic performance of students
who take a tutorial course is different. It seems better indeed, proven by a
research called “Private Supplementary Tutoring: Comparative Perspectives on
Patterns and Implications” which was conducted by Professor Bray in Hong Kong
University. The research says that “Students' academic results are improved
after attending tutorial class.” Let me explain more about this. Students who
take a tutorial course will get additional scores from teachers more often because
they become more active in class ever since they take a tutorial course. They
often raise hands to answer teacher’s questions since they have already learned
the lessons first in the course. The lessons in class are understood fast by
them, so when they have tests, their scores will be good and oftentimes, be the
best in class. Most of the students who take a tutorial course then get the
first rank and will be easier to be accepted in their favorite colleges.
Therefore, improving their academic performance is the second advantage.
The third, taking a tutorial course
causes the students to be goal-oriented. Their self-confidences become higher
since they know their academic potentials are good. Their frequent study and their
study hours are enough to make them believe that they surely can be accepted in
their favorite colleges. As a result, they enjoy studying and automatically
will concentrate more while studying in order to pursue their realistic goals
in the future. They focus their efforts on achieving them until they get what
they want.
All in all, taking a tutorial course
has 3 advantages, which are having scheduled study hours, improving students’
academic performance, and being goal-oriented. When students’ study hours have
been scheduled well, they can automatically improve their academic performance
in class. At last, it can mold new good personality that is goal-oriented for
students so that they can focus their efforts on achieving their realistic
goals. If you want to get those advantages, then just take a tutorial course
and I’ll make sure you will get them.
