The Beautiful History of Tutoring

Marin Mommies presents a sponsored shout-out from Axiom Learning.

Tutoring has some very deep historical roots, even as far back as ancient times. Socrates was a tutor and his pupil, Aristotle, was the tutor of Alexander the Great. In essence, tutoring is an extremely historical method of learning and teaching.

Academies and schools have formed and flourished since ancient times and in the 19th century, tutoring eventually made its way to the budding Western culture.

Tutoring can be compared to a personal trainer but with a purpose to exercise the mind. Tutors inspire through education and open doors to the personal journey in intellectual growth.

Today, the need for tutoring is utilized for many reasons including learning assistance, standardized test preparation and to deepen understanding.

It’s beneficial to learn something new everyday at any stage in life. The world of tutoring opens many doors. The ability to learn one-on-one benefits both the teacher and student.

Much has changed since ancient times. Modern day tutoring agencies have evolved to tremendous lengths. Fortunately, tutoring agencies still hold the same belief system in assisting individuals to think on their own accordance and obtain deep understanding.
