GMAT prep courses take place in a small group setting. They are taught in a live format in a virtual classroom that features an expert instructor and a number of classmates to learn with. This may be the right test prep option for you if you've previously had success in the traditional classroom learning environment. GMAT prep classes also offer the option to work with your instructor in a one-on-one setting when you need additional help with a particularly challenging topic.
You may also be interested in GMAT tutoring. This may be the right study supplement for you if you place a premium on getting personalized feedback from your instructor throughout each session. Your educator will be able to set you up with a customized lesson plan that is based entirely on your academic needs. GMAT tutors may help you learn the material you need to know for your exam in a more efficient manner than would be possible if studying for the GMAT alone.

Emerson said that the secret of education is respecting the student. I have the greatest respect for that part of the human spirit that is curious and wants to learn. I find that if students feel they are listened to and heard, this allows them to feel encouraged. When they begin to understand that learning can be fun, the whole process becomes exciting and joyful. We are all curious and like to learn.
