Do you think its better in a one of one enviroment or as a group? Consider things like HSC enrichment sessions, and tutoring centre coaching

During my HSC year, I was just so against group tuition. It does nothing for me and i just saw it as a waste of time having to be dragged through with a class that was not at the same level. Some people were too advanced and they were grouped with people who didnt know a syllabus existed

One on one was the way to go for me. Im not really a confident person to shout out in group situations so this way, i can ask stuff and also ask what is relevant to ME and what I feel inadequate in. I spent 400 on group tuition for a term (paid for it and signed contract so i couldnt back out after the first shit lesson

) for economics. After that i quit and simply continued my one on one tuition for maths (been havign that since yr 7) and ended up ok in the HSC.

Concerning HSC enrichment stuff: I went to the typical usyd ones for english and the harbourside convention for the AOS. Waste of time and waste of money. they didnt tell me anything i didnt know already and ALOT were just conducted by drones milking money off stressed HSC kiddos (like me

). Perhaps this is because im a nerd or something cos i heard some people actualyl found some use in it...

I like private tutoring, I learn & concentrate better if its one on one. I was lucky enough to have my english teacher tutor me in both english & german

Woah they get $20 AND HOUR? I charge $20 for 2 hours. Maybe I should charge more

Anyway I think one on one tutoring is best since you pretty much have to concentrate!! no one else in the class and you can't doze of. Plus you can ask more questions that way.
