  • Exploring the Contemporary Educational Challenges and Impact of Influential Coaching Classes of English Language Learning in Pakistan
    Orient Research Journal of Social Sciences ISSN Print 2616-7085 June 2019, Vol.4, No.1 [31-44] ISSN Online 2616-7093 Exploring the Contemporary Educational Challenges and Impact of Influential Coaching Classes of English Language Learning in Pakistan Hassan Bin Zubair1 Ishtiaq Ahmad2 Dr. Iftikhar Haider Malik3 Abstract This research explores the structure, phenomenon and impact of coaching class on the academic scenario in connection with the shadow education system in Pakistan. It is assumed that coaching centers focus to apply better techniques to teach English as a second language (L2). This research analyzes all the positive and negative aspects of coaching classes on English language learning especially in secondary education. This study is qualitative in its nature and mode of presentation but most of the data has been collected in written and recorded form for more comprehensive results and findings. Data is collected through questionnaires and class observation in Pakistani public sector schools. It is observed that students are satisfied with the coaching centers and the education they are providing in the sense of learning of English as a second language. Findings of this research show that students and teachers pay more attention in coaching classes/centers than to their regular classes at school. The study has some important implications, Pakistan government should introduce the tight check and balance system to reduce the burden on the parents who pay hefty amount of fees to the coaching centers for the prosperous future of their children and the standards of the public sector schools should be raised so that the students will rely more on their regular classes at school.

  • Tutoring Center Effectiveness
    Erik Cooper Tutoring Center Effectiveness: The Effect of Drop-In Tutoring While tutoring as a whole has been demonstrated to improve student learning across a variety of subjects and age groups, there is little published evidence for the effectiveness of drop-in tutoring at the undergraduate level. This type of tutoring can be derided as homework help; however, it is clear from this study that students who made use of the Tutoring Center (TC) regularly gained more academically than simply help with an individual class. In fact students who visited the TC more than 10 times per quarter had ap- proximately 10% higher rates of persistence and approximately 0.2 points higher average GPA’s than students who infrequently visited or who do not visit the TC during their first year of college. hen reviewing the literature on academic support styles, thereW is considerable evidence for the effec- tiveness of traditional one-on-one tutoring where a single tutor meets regularly with a single student to improve the learning and understand- ing of the student (Cohen & Kulik, 1981; Hartman, 1990; Topping, 1996). However, many colleges and universities choose not to or cannot afford to make individual tutoring available to their students. Instead, tutoring centers or learning labs at many institutions provide tutoring support to a number of students simultaneously. While it is assumed that students receive the same or similar benefit from tutoring in a center as they would from individual tutoring, “there is a lack of conclusive evidence to provide the rationale for the widespread implementation of effective peer tutoring programs in college settings” (Lildren & Meier, 1991, p.69).

  • The Private Tutoring Scenario: Contributions to a Comparative Analysis
    The private tutoring scenario: contributions to a comparative analysis Alexandre Ventura António Neto-Mendes Jorge Adelino Costa Sara Azevedo Department of Educational Sciences University of Aveiro Portugal Comunicação na XXII CESE Conference – Changing knowledge and education: communities, information societies and mobilities. The World in Europe – Europe in the World, Granada, 3 a 6 de Julho de 2006, ISBN 84-8491665-0. 1 The private tutoring scenario: contributions to a comparative analysis1 Alexandre Ventura António Neto-Mendes Jorge Adelino Costa Sara Azevedo Department of Educational Sciences University of Aveiro Portugal Abstract – Private tutoring, which we will analyse in this paper, has earned our attention due to several reasons: i) the fact that it is practically a worldwide phenomenon, even though educational systems vary from country to country; ii) the fact that the repercussions of private tutoring on pupils’ results may provoke a reequation of equity and equality of opportunity principles; iii) the belief that the financial costs sustained by the pupils’ families, on one hand, and the rising number of private tutors available (working part-time or full-time), on the other, grant this phenomenon a considerable social and economic importance. This approach privileges a qualitative analysis of the private tutoring scenario, with the aim of getting to know better some of its forms: its exercise as the sole employment of the tutor or as a supplement to the salary earned in another activity; private tutoring as a self-employment or employee activity; private tutoring that takes place in a local tutoring centre; private tutoring that takes place in a tutoring franchise, at a national or multinational level.
