Top 5 Reasons to Hire a Private Teacher

Written By: Jami Dennis

For many families, conventional schooling simply doesn’t work for them. They envision a more enriching, adaptable and safe learning journey they envisioned for their children. For those seeking a customizable, high-quality education outside of the the walls of a conventional classroom, hiring private teacher is the ideal solution.

If you’re considering making a change, or have always dreamed of homeschooling, here are some of the top reasons families choose to hire a private teacher:

1. Education that Adapts to Your Child’s Learning Style and Pace

At ABC, our private teachers customize each child’s educational experience to fit their unique learning style, pace, and interests. A private educator can foster deeper, more meaningful learning experiences for your student. They can plan hands-on science experiments. They can work with your student to develop creative projects and learning initiatives. Or, they can simply immerse themselves in reading all about your child’s favorite subject. This tailored approach meets children where they are at and lets them grow at their own pace.

2. Focused Support for Advanced or Specialized Learners

Private teachers provide the focused attention that’s often impossible to achieve in a large classroom. Working with children individually or in small groups of up to three, they can address each student’s specific needs. Whether that’s supporting a child who need to be challenged, a student who’s struggle with social or learning challenges, or simply benefit from a quieter learning environment, a private teacher will help your student(s) thrive academically and develop confidence in their abilities.

3. Experiential, Hands-On Learning (Beyond the Screen)

Many people learn best through experience, and the same goes for students. Research supports the idea that experiential learning is more effective for children. Studies show hands-on exploration of a subject can lead to a deeper understanding of the material, increased knowledge retention, and improved engagement with the content compared to traditional earning methods.

With a private teacher, education extends beyond the classroom into the real world. Your child can learn math by cooking and adjusting recipes. They can explore biology on hikes in the mountains. Or, they can dive into history with field trips to landmarks nearby (or far away, if you love to travel). So let’s get your kiddos exploring and learning instead of staring at a computer all day.

4. Flexible Scheduling and Balance

Balancing academics with extracurricular passions like art, sports, music or even travel can be challenging for many families. Our private educators can create custom schedules that allow your children to excel academically without sacrificing their interests (or yours). Additionally, this flexibility also allows learning to continue seamlessly during family travel. Imagine studying art history in Paris or exploring early American history at Ellis Island – it’s education that adapts to your family’s lifestyle. It’s time to stop racing around, stressed out from morning until night. You can find balance (and maybe some peace, too) between school and extracurriculars.

5. Cultivation of Independent Thinking and Curiosity

Private teachers encourage children to ask questions, explore multiple perspectives, and think critically. With the freedom to move beyond standardized curriculums, students can pursue topics that ignite their curiosity, helping them become independent thinkers and lifelong learners. Whether through alternative learning styles like “unschooling” or Montessori-based curriculum, private educators instill a love of learning that will last a lifetime.
