Private tuition is expensive, hard to vet, and often inconsistent. Mass weekend classes are overcrowded and impersonal. Children — especially those building confidence — rarely thrive in either extreme.
The case for 6 to 8
In a small group, every child is known by name, gets regular speaking time, and benefits from peer learning. Tutors can correct gently and progress the entire group together.
What changes for parents
- Lower fees than 1-on-1 with most of the same attention.
- Children stay engaged because the energy of the group keeps the lesson alive.
- You get clearer progress reports because the tutor truly knows the cohort.
