From my experience in both attending classes at Tuition Centre
and being taught by people (tutors) coming to my house to teach me,
I would say that both has its pros and cons. Regardless of tuition
centre or private tuition, what matters is the
qualifications/certifications/achievements that the tutors have. As
in, the tutor’s own exam grades, the tuition center’s certification
in quality (if any) (for example), track record (how students
generally progress when they attend their tuition), etcetera.
Generally, going to tuition centre would enable the student to
learn faster as there are many students in the class to identify
many different doubts at the same time for the teachers to teach
and clarify. On the other hand, having tutors to come to house and
teach would enable the tutor to give a lot more attention and focus
on the student during the tuition, since it’s just one student to
one teacher.
It is usually quite hard to teach the Chinese Language to
Primary school student, especially if Chinese language is not used
at home.
While the tutors teach him the Chinese language, it would be
easier for him to learn the Chinese language if you learn the
language along with him and encourage communication in Chinese
language at home.
Anyway, as to whether to go for tuition centre or private
tuition, it depends on how much money you want to spend on this
AND the qualifications of the tutors or
tuition centre.
