How IP Tuition Can Help You (Besides Pull Up Your Grades)

Is getting tuition really worth your money? What are you really getting when you attend tuition or register your child for tuition?

If you’re a student in the IP stream, we understand that grades are probably the top priority in your mind. You want to get good grades, excel in your chosen subjects, and be able to choose your preferred university and course. And most of you CAN!

As the top percentile of the cohort, IP students are already top-scorers. You are amongst the brightest and most capable of your peers when it comes to the academics. So how exactly would tuition help you?

Well, it’s actually interesting to hear the reasons our students give us. Often, it’s not simply about pulling up their grades, but the value we provide along the way that helps them get to their goals. With tuition, they can study more efficiently, feel more motivated, be more disciplined, and even get insider tips that they won’t get by studying by themselves.

Still deciding if you should sign up for IP tuition? Here’s what you’ll be getting if you do decide to join us:

You will save time

Many of our students say attending tuition actually saves them time! The math isn’t adding up? Yes, tuition may take up about 2 hours of your time each week for one subject. But compare that with spending hours and hours trying to figure out your homework – and still getting the answers wrong. Or spending lots of time doing independent learning on Google, but still not understanding the concepts.

Even the most hardworking students could do with some “shortcuts”. At Future Academy, our tutors have consolidated the information you need to know into easy-to-digest chunks – be it in topical worksheets, summary sheets, or in their simple-to-understand explanations. Most of our classes will also introduce topics early so that you have an easier time once your school teacher teaches the subject. When it comes to doing your assignments or studying for exams, you already have all you need to tackle them! No more wasting time!

You will be more motivated

Teachers in school are a hit or miss affair. If you’re lucky, you meet an amazing teacher who is great at making lessons fun and motivates you to do well. But if you’re not… Let’s not talk about it.

With a tutor, you can choose. Our Future Academy IP tutors are known to have turned students who hate the subject into students who love the subject! Most of the time, the teacher makes a huge difference on how motivated the students are. It helps a ton that our tutors make it a point to conduct lessons that are interactive rather than just one-way lectures. We consider it a success when our students tell us they look forward to our classes each week!

You are more likely to study regularly

Let’s face it. As a teen, time management is probably not your strong suit. Most students only start studying when there’s an exam coming up – and many end up studying last minute.

Attending tuition regularly forces you to review and revisit topics every so often, thanks to the revision and topical summary sessions. Even if you don’t revise regularly on your own, you will get to revise during tuition lessons. By having these milestones mapped out for you, it is easier to stay on track and avoid the last minute cramming that is known to pile on stress and be highly ineffective for students.

You can get insider tips

One of the best ways to succeed is to learn from those who have done it before you! Our IP tutors include those who graduated from IP schools themselves, as well as former IP school teachers who have taught numerous batches of IP students. If anyone knows what the IP syllabus is like, it’s them!

They can offer you advice that that you wouldn’t get anywhere else, such as what the school examiners are looking for in a student’s answer, how school exam questions are set, the best ways to study for each subject, and so on. Our friendly and approachable tutors also understand the types of struggles unique to IP students, such as high expectations and tough competition.

Conclusion

Now, do you still think tuition is only for those struggling students who want to improve their grades? Or will you be considering it for the abovementioned benefits it will give you?
