How do I know if I need an IELTS tutor?

You might benefit from having an IELTS tutor if you’re having difficulty with various concepts or formulas, get constantly frustrated with IELTS homework, or when your grades start falling behind. On top of that, having 1-on-1 tutoring sessions with an IELTS tutor can help you to regain confidence and get back on track.

How to choose an online IELTS tutor?

As you look over the list of online IELTS tutors, pay close attention to the qualifications indicated on their profiles. From their profile descriptions to their education and work experiences to reviews from other students or parents, having considered these factors will help you choose an online IELTS tutor that best suits your needs.

What questions should I ask an IELTS tutor during the first meeting?

Common goals of hiring an IELTS tutor are: to improve grades, simplify abstract concepts or complex notions and prepare for exams. Therefore, it’s important to ask your tutor questions, such as the process they use to help students they’ve worked with in the past; if they are familiar with your school’s curriculum; and how long they are willing to commit to helping you with your IELTS class. You may get back on track after a couple of tutoring sessions or may need long-term help that could require a tutor staying with you the entire school year - this could also be discussed with them during the first meeting.

How much does an IELTS tutor cost?

The price of a private in-person or online IELTS tutor is set by each individual tutor. IELTS tutor prices differ due to several different variables, including experience, university levels (ex. Ph.D. candidate vs graduate student vs bachelor’s degree vs undergraduate degree), demand, and teaching experience. No matter your budget, finding an experienced IELTS tutor to help you with any IELTS problem is easy with TutorOcean.

How does online IELTS tutoring work?

When you sign up for online tutoring with TutorOcean, all your classroom sessions will take place in our exclusive Online Collaborative Learning Platform with live video conferencing and white-board technologies. The TutorOcean platform is a secure private learning environment that is accessible anywhere in the world where a reliable internet connection is available providing the ultimate tutoring experience. It also includes powerful features like a virtual whiteboard and video chat capabilities to facilitate a face-to-face study experience without the headache of a commute. Perhaps most importantly, our Live Learning Platform records every study session so that you can build up a comprehensive review library over time.

Are IELTS tutors worth it?

Studies suggest that as many as eight out of 10 students can potentially benefit from private instruction, including children who are high-achievers. Not only can private 1-on-1 tutoring online or in-person help foster a deeper understanding of key concepts, but students can also be taught broader study skills that will be very useful in later school levels even into high school and college/university classes. The only way to truly discover the benefit of a private IELTS tutor is to try a tutoring service for yourself. Take your time to meet several tutors to ensure you find the right fit, especially with regard to matching teaching and learning styles.

How can a tutor help me master IELTS?

An IELTS tutor can help you to recall more than just concepts of IELTS, but to put that knowledge to use. A private tutor can help you to connect what you’re learning in school (at any grade level) with what you see and experience in your daily life. A private IELTS tutor can help you review your academic concerns and create a study plan that highlights your strengths and builds on your weaknesses to help improve your grades. Book your first tutoring session today and discover how an experienced tutor can help you truly master all the key IELTS concepts.
