What exactly is your program?

123 Tuition is a highly structured, user friendly, online teaching system specifically created to support the New Zealand curriculum.

How much does the program cost?

The cost of the programme varies from family to family. The reason for this is that each programme is structured around each family’s particular circumstances. Therefore depending on the number of children in the family, their ages, current ability levels and how much, or little, of the programme is relevant for each family, the costs will vary quite considerably.

What is the curriculum?

123 Tuition provides home-based tuition and support for children aged between 4 and 16 and can represent a far more cost effective alternative to private maths tutors for learning maths and English tutors for learning English or Centre based alternatives.

Does 123 Tuition support the curriculum?

Yes, 123 Tuition is 100% aligned to the New Zealand curriculum. 123 Tuition can help parents understand in more detail the content and practices of the education system, in primary intermediate and high schools across New Zealand.

How is 123 Tuition different to a private tutor?

123 Tuition will be available to you 24 hours a day, every day, for all the children in your family to use again and again, as much as they need to and in the comfort and privacy of your own home.

How long will 123 Tuition last?

The length of time it takes to complete an 123 Tuition programme is, of course, dependant on how many topics and year groups you choose to purchase. However, this is again dependent on each family’s particular circumstances and will vary considerably depending on the number of children in a family, their ages and current achievement levels.

Can we stop and restart using 123 Tuition any time?

Children should, on average, watch one or two lessons a week, but if they need to stop for a brief period such as a family holiday, that’s fine. Although, please remember that your 123 Tuition is specifically there to help your children improve and ultimately reach their full learning potential.

Is everything explained clearly and accurately to parents?

Our Course Advisors explain everything about 123 Tuition extremely clearly and accurately as part of the initial assessment visit, including how it all works, which parts would be suitable for the family, the costs and other alternative options.

Am I expected to help my child with their 123 Tuition work at home?

YES if you want to and NO if you don’t. Many parents choose to watch the 123 Tuition lessons with their children but older children can watch the lessons and complete the exercises on their own.

I’ve heard some schools send some information out about 123 Tuition – why is this?

These days, parents often seek additional private tuition or further support for their children and from time to time approach their children’s school for guidance. Many schools have passed on information about 123 Tuition, which they feel may be helpful to some parents.

Can I receive further information about 123 Tuition?

Of course you can. However, as 123 Tuition uses audio visual teaching methods combined with cutting edge technology to deliver the teaching and support direct to your family home, our advice is always that it really needs to be seen and experienced first hand in order to be certain that it is right for you and your family.

Not structuring learning

Online learning requires a certain amount of self-discipline and time management skills. It’s a lot easier for students to give in to distractions when a teacher is not watching them. With online learning, there is no set schedule to adhere to; it’s up to each student to organise their own time productively. Creating a structured schedule and sticking to it is a great way to ensure that work gets done and isn’t put off. Along with scheduled learning, breaks are also important. Excessive exposure to the laptop or mobile screen without dedicated breaks could lead to a lack of interest and focus.

Not asking for help when its needed

Asking for help isn’t always easy. Students who learn online may need to ask more questions, as they don’t have peers to discuss ideas with. Without a traditional classroom, learners can engage with other students and instructors through online message boards and chat rooms. Students can fast-track their learning and get the hang of things more quickly and easily by reaching out for support and guidance from people who can help them with the transition.

A poorly organised study space

One of the greatest benefits of online learning is that it can be done anywhere with an internet connection. However, this doesn’t mean that all environments are great for learning. While it is very tempting for students to complete online classes from the comfort of their bed, studying in a space dedicated to relaxing isn’t very productive. Setting up a dedicated study space can improve focus and establish clear boundaries between learning time and downtime. Students will associate their dedicated space with school work, so the brain will know it’s time to get things done as soon as they sit in that spot.

Not taking notes

With online learning, it can be easy to slip into a more passive approach to learning by watching tutorials and not engaging further with the course content. If students are watching video tutorials, taking notes can be a great way to help them focus on what they are being taught. While writing, students tend to think more intensely, process more information, detect more doubts and questions, enhance their memory, and boost creativity. While revising, students can refer to these notes to find important topics instead of rewatching the whole video lesson, which saves time and increases productivity.
