Like most of the early teens, Mike had recurrent nightmares about numbers in his math book. He lagged behind his school lessons but was too shy to ask for help. His mother tried to help him out but her expertise lied elsewhere.

Then Mike found help. A genie in a bottle! A genius who could answer his any doubt anytime!

Welcome to the world of online tutoring, the way the new world teaches itself. Millions of students are tapping into their mobile devices to find tutors to coach them on anything under the sun. Online tutoring sites are proving to be the panacea they have been waiting for.

“I had my doubts since the whole concept was entirely new to me.” Says Mike. “But I was pleasantly surprised by the tutor’s method of teaching.”

Mike’s mother Michelle Walker, who introduced him to TutorComp.com, says her son can solve a problem in just a few minutes.

Michelle says she was constantly nagged by her son over his math homework. “It’s not always easy to help out, there were several times when I went clueless.”

Michelle is not alone. Many working parents like her have found online tutoring sites the best way to help their children stay competitive. These sites provide a convenient and cost-effective way for students to excel in their studies.

The groundswell is matched by data projections. The online tutoring sector is set to reach $100 billion in revenue by 2018, according to Global Industry Analysts Inc (GIA). The trend is fast catching up in the United States, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific.

 

says Mr. Gigo Joseph, the CEO of TutorComp.com

Unlike the old times, this is an era of working-class people. Two parents’ working families have multiplied. Sure they do make sure to provide everything to take care of their kids, but it’s not always possible to give full attention to the children’s education. Not every time are they available to cater their kid’s so-called “Math Situation” or an assignment on a challenging subject that is to be submitted on a critical deadline.

Online Tutoring is one of the best ways to provide support for struggling students because it is flexible, cost-effective, and user-friendly. With Online tutors, students can clear their doubts at any place at their own convenience. A Smartphone with a net or laptop along with a data card is more than enough to learn online.

 

However, Mr. Joseph added that the real challenge lies in educating the parents and students alike on the possibilities of online face-to-face tutoring.

 

 

The beauty of online tutoring is the freedom it offers to the student and the tutor. Students are no longer reliant on the convenience of the tutor. They have help whenever and wherever they seek it.

 

Says Gigo Joseph adding that TutorComp is very well on its way to expand its horizon to new markets.
