Group Classes vs. Individual Sessions: What Works Best for High-Achievers?
In this blog, we dive into the decision many parents face: should their child take individual tutoring or join a small-group class? The answer is nuanced — it depends on the student’s goals, learning style and schedule. For high-achievers aiming for extension beyond the syllabus (for instance, Iranian students prepping for overseas opportunities or advanced school placement), group classes like our new AI and Vedic Math tracks offer several advantages: collaborative peer learning, exposure to advanced concepts, and a structured schedule that fosters discipline and engagement.

However, individual sessions remain essential for personalised support — especially when a student needs to make up ground (remediative work), manage language transition (e.g., Persian ➜ English medium), or prepare for specific exams. At TheTuitionE we recommend a hybrid approach: a weekly group session to build interest and peer energy + one individual session to target specific needs. Over time, this mix provides both efficiency and personalisation.

For Iranian families, the group format also offers a cost-effective entry point. Because online group classes have slightly lower per-student cost, more families can access premium content. This matters in a context where many students have been forced out of school due to economic stress.
