What is difference between tutoring and coaching?

Often when a student is struggling, the first thought is to hire a private tutor. In some cases this can be an effective way to address the problem. However, in some cases where a student is struggling in more than one subject, it can be far more effective to look into academic performance coaching as a solution to the problem. Tutors will work very specifically on a problem area in a problem subject, whereas, an Academic Performance Coach will look at the student as a whole and try to identify and address the barriers that are preventing them from fulfilling their potential.

An Academic Performance Coach will look to build a set of skills that the student can use in all of the subjects and, indeed, throughout their lives as opposed to skills which will help them pass a specific exam. Academic Performance Coaches will help with feeling overwhelmed when it comes to revision, studying and exams.
