May 22, 2006 -- Get your child a great tutor for less
If you have a son or daughter who is having some trouble in school, you may want to consider a tutor. Now, Clark knows tutors can get pretty expensive. But there is a way to get a great tutor at one-third to one-fourth the cost of a typical tutor. According to the Washington Post, tutors in India have master’s degrees, can teach a variety of subjects and only costs $18 to $20 an hour. One is called “Growing Stars” and is based in California. Another is “Study Loft,” which is based in Chicago. They only use overseas tutors. Many of the systems have live chat capability so students can see and interact with their tutor. So, who thinks this is a bad idea? Teachers unions do. They are in an uproar over this and are trying to get Congress to outlaw the overseas tutoring. Let’s hope that goes away quickly.
