Should I choose online or in-person tutoring? Which is better?

It all comes down to what helps your child stay focused and actually enjoy learning. While online tutoring offers convenience, in-person tutoring provides hands-on interaction and fewer distractions. A tutor sitting next to your child can read their body language, catch moments of confusion, and adjust on the spot. There’s no risk of zoning out or pretending the Wi-Fi “suddenly stopped working.” If your child struggles with staying engaged or needs extra motivation, having a physical tutor there can make a big difference. Sometimes, the best learning happens when there’s no screen between the student and the teacher. However, if the situation calls for it, Cardinal Education can facilitate an excellent online tutoring experience for distance learning and other similar cases.
