How does online tuition work?

Watch this 1 minute video and find out!

For more more details on anything in the video, see below:

Software

BitPaper

An interactive whiteboard app upon which a teacher and student can write simultaneously. No software needed—it's as simple as following a link! 

​

Notes can be saved at the end of a lesson as a pdf file.

Zoom

Zoom is JTC Education's VOIP of choice. We share meeting details with you to your email/phone before the start of any lesson

Materials

Computer/Laptop: 

​

Note: Phone screens are impractically small when using BitPaper interactive whiteboard app.

Graphics Tablet (optional) and/or Phone: 

​

In lessons it is critical that we can see students’ approaches to answering questions. The ideal format through which this happens is with the use of a Graphics Tablet.

If students prefer not to commit immediately to purchasing a tablet then sending photos via Whatsapp messenger works equally well. 

​

Note: Some notebooks/iPads allow for the use of other gadgets such as Apple pencils or styluses, which can work equally well.

Earphones/Headset:

​

Not an absolute necessity, but it helps to prevent feedback on video calls.

Pen and Paper:

​

It's always useful to have pen and paper to hand when studying, even though it often isn't necessary whilst on a graphics tablet.
