Title: TuteSmart - What is it like?
Post by: JR_StudyEd on May 09, 2019, 01:20:48 pm
*Specifically VCE, obviously.*
*Maths Methods is what I want to enrol in*

For those involved in Tutesmart, can anyone tell me what the Tutesmart experience is like? How did it benefit you? What's the teaching style? Doesn't have to be Methods, just in general.

Hey!

Disclaimer: I work over at Tutesmart.

The program essentially has two components: a weekly 1.5 hour class based on the subject(s) you enrol in and one-on-one tutoring in the roaming space in each of the centres. The 1.5 hour classes break down each section of the study design for the given subject so that everyone is all clear regarding required knowledge. We also run different practice sacs during class - after which you can hand up to your tutor to get it marked (if you are looking for extra practice). In the one-on-one roaming space you can receive individualised help based on the specific questions you have. You can attend the centre as many times as you wish during the week and receive all the help that you need - which is really beneficial (especially leading up to SACs).

If you are keen to find out more have a suss of the website and try booking an information appointment: https://tutesmart.com/

Hope that helps! :)

How many times a week is the class held by the way, Ribozyne?

You attend each class you sign up for once a week, but each centre has its own timetable so there will be repeats of classes if you miss your allocated class time/the class doesn't run that week due to public holiday. There will also be recordings of each class uploaded online so you can catch up on any classes you couldn't attend in person. Like Ribozyme mentioned, you can access the roaming tutors at any time even if you don't have a class that day. Basically you can come in to study whenever you don't have a class, and if you have questions there will be tutors in the study space ready to help you out. Definitely come visit a centre and book an appointment if you have questions or just want to check out the space.
