Tutorial centres
Helpful
I have been studying at a tutorial centre for two years. The fees are very reasonable, and my command of English has improved greatly since I started.
My tutors are all qualified teachers. They are sincere and kind. I have been helped a lot by them.
One of my teachers was British. At first, I could not say anything to her. However, later I learnt how to communicate in English with a westerner.
I think that the tutorial centre has given me a lot of confidence in using English.
I go to sleep
I have been attending a tutorial centre for two months. I have been forced to attend by my parents, but I do not think it is useful for me.
I am always very tired after school. Sometimes I even sleep during the classes in the evening.
Furthermore, the teachers are very boring. They give us a lot of supplementary exercises but they teach us nothing. I usually read comics during class. Sometimes I go to a video arcade instead. I think tutorial centres are useless
Waste of money
I have studied at a tutorial centre for one year. However, I think that I have been cheated.
These tutorial centres are only interested in making money, so they accept too many students for each class. However, they do not want to pay for good teachers. My English teacher was a university student who studied physics, not English!
Very often, he could not answer our questions about the use of the language.
In my opinion, it is better to spend more time on school work than to waste money at a ‘money-making’ tutorial centre. Good and bad
I have experienced both good and bad tutorial centres.
In my first centre, I was in a very big class. My teacher was an Australian. He just talked about his travels. I could learn nothing from him. I left within a month.
Then I ask all my friends for their advice. As a result of their recommendations, I enrolled on a course at another centre.
The teachers are excellent here and the classes are small. We have been taught many good techniques for developing our language and studying skills.
There are both good and bad tutorial centres, so you must do some detective work before you enroll.
However, the most important thing is whether you are willing to learn and to work hard. The key factor is yourself.
