Therefore, based on the huge market demand, many education and training institutions have set up quality education guidance courses such as self-enrollment counseling. In addition, with the segmentation of the market, the service characteristics of educational institutions are becoming more and more refined, such as voluntary guidance for college entrance examination and offline online education.
Function 1
Quality education such as innovation and invention courses has stepped onto the stage.
In recent years, with the increasing label of "exam-oriented education" in extracurricular counseling institutions, many industry experts have called for extracurricular counseling to take the road of "quality education" after analyzing the industry situation and prospects of extracurricular counseling institutions. Extra-curricular counseling should shift from simply checking for leaks and filling gaps for children to quality education, because grades only represent children's past, not their present and future. It is reported that many institutions have begun to try quality education, such as "innovation and invention courses".
In addition to giving children knowledge, they should also give them quality. If it is only knowledge education, it can be regarded as a "trap mechanism" at most, and its essence is to solve children's learning problems, such as learning psychology. After investigation, there are many students, not intellectual problems, but study habits that lead to poor grades. If you don't change your habits, it's no use mending them. Therefore, many counseling institutions began to try to analyze students' personality, judge the subjective and objective factors behind their grades, pay attention to guiding students' ability, and turn the purpose of "taking the exam" into the improvement of their ability and quality.
However, many parents choose extracurricular tutoring institutions in order to improve their grades. Parents will not approve if the score is not improved. In this regard, many extracurricular counseling institutions said that they are also very confused in the face of this problem.
Function 2
Self-enrollment examination enters the front of extracurricular education.
As we all know, the topics of the independent entrance examination are not only difficult, but also very big, and some exams are from morning till night. For example, in the "NATO" exam, three papers in English, Mathematics and Chinese will be distributed at the same time in the morning, and it will take three and a half hours to complete. For candidates, it is almost an "impossible task" to complete it all. How to plan as a whole, how to choose and how to use skills to get more points in a large number of questions is a great challenge to candidates' wisdom in taking exams.
It is understood that it is a common phenomenon for high schools to formulate some teaching strategies for the independent entrance examination in colleges and universities because of the intensification of the independent entrance examination in recent years. But this kind of teaching has not spread on a large scale. Therefore, many educational counseling institutions have taken a fancy to the training market of independent entrance examination. At present, it is not uncommon to see various training programs for independent entrance examination in the market.
However, the self-enrollment examination training is not very optimistic for the industry. Because there is no outline and proposition guiding ideology in the self-enrollment examination, there is a certain contingency in setting questions in colleges and universities every year. Students have to take the examination through usual accumulation and precipitation, and the effect of short-term training is extremely limited. Accordingly, many training institutions that began to provide self-enrollment counseling indicated that the focus of their counseling was to help students train their own abilities and exam-taking skills, rather than cramming students to cope with exams.
Function 3
Extracurricular education in primary and secondary schools takes a diversified route.
It is understood that the service targets of extracurricular counseling institutions are students in different periods. In the compulsory module learning stage, they can synchronize with the unified progress of the school and achieve the goal of consolidating, improving and expanding at the same time. In the elective stage, because the contents of elective courses in different disciplines are different, the elective courses offered by different schools in different semesters are also different, so students' classes in different classes are naturally different, and the diversified needs increase the opportunities for students to choose. At the same time, the courses offered by extracurricular counseling institutions have also begun to focus on "diversification" for students to choose from. For example, help students design elective courses. In addition, if students encounter some unsolvable problems in the process of inquiry, or there are problems in expanding their knowledge, and school classroom teaching can't help solve them in time, extracurricular tutoring can provide targeted counseling for students' problems, and at the same time, take timely measures to remedy all kinds of inadaptability in the process of curriculum reform.
Function 4
Online extracurricular education reveals the advantages of autonomous learning.
According to the teaching environment and means, these extracurricular tutoring institutions can be roughly divided into two types: physical teaching similar to traditional school teaching and online tutoring institutions using convenient Internet, namely offline education and online education. These two forms of extra-curricular tutoring have their own advantages and both occupy a considerable market. At present, parents and students prefer offline education, because the advantage of this method lies in the timeliness and effectiveness of face-to-face communication, which can enable students to consolidate and digest what they have learned in time and effectively. However, online education, namely online distance education, also has its unique advantages and potential development space. In particular, online education has two advantages: flexibility without time and space constraints and autonomy in guiding students' learning. Students can adjust their study plans and progress at any time according to their own situation, which is very flexible. This kind of network education completely abandons the traditional classroom mode, divides teaching resources according to various knowledge systems, and forms a more professional, systematic and in-depth curriculum system. In addition, some online education also cooperates with schools to provide technical support, financial support and brand resources.
At present, with its own development, various institutions are consciously improving their teaching methods and means, and this distinction is becoming less and less obvious.
Function 5
Volunteer guidance of college entrance examination is sought after in extracurricular education.
In recent years, "post-college entrance examination consumption" has emerged in an endless stream, and various kinds of advertisements for study abroad agencies and training institutions are enthusiastic about enrolling students, and various types of "summer vacation tours" and "study tours" have emerged in an endless stream ... In recent years, volunteer services have also entered the ranks of consumption, and the fees of such volunteer counseling institutions are more than 1,000 yuan. Now "college entrance examination volunteer" is a very big cake. According to the survey, only 15% students can clearly choose their future major, and the remaining 85% students need guidance. As more and more parents are willing to invest more in their children's voluntary choice, more and more educators with volunteer guidance experience have found business opportunities. Because volunteering for guidance is a game, facing the complicated university admission policy and huge employment pressure, the comprehensive information provided by such institutions can help candidates make scientific decisions and play an important role in helping parents and candidates.
It is understood that most of these institutions have a set of testing systems for choosing majors according to their interests and personalities. Each student needs to complete a set of professional psychological evaluation questions first. For example, "Do you like music" and "How are your daily habits" and other topics, analyze what kind of personality a student belongs to through his first reaction. Generally, candidates will be guided to choose a suitable major direction according to their own personality, hobbies and career tendencies, combined with the development of national industries and the upgrading of industrial structure. According to the enrollment situation of various schools in recent years, this year's enrollment policy and admission rules suggest students how to choose majors and schools, which can at least help children and parents to fill in the form rationally and reduce the risk of blindly filling in the form.
When volunteering every year, many families will encounter things that parents and children don't want, so these students and parents need more guidance. However, it is worth noting that this kind of guidance only gives advice to children according to students' interests and personality, admission rules, employment information and other factors, and cannot help students make decisions. In this case, parents are advised to adhere to the principle of giving priority to candidates and actively guiding them, and provide their children with more information on policies, industries and employment, but the final choice should be in the hands of children.
In addition, at present, there is no unified standard in the whole country, and there is no unified management in the education sector. Candidates are advised to pay attention to whether these instructors have human resources certificates and career planning industry certificates before choosing, and consider the scale of the institutions and the success probability of previous years' guidance to effectively prevent "crooked institutions".
