Hiring a GMAT Online Tutor – Advantages & Disadvantages

For many years, Manhattan Review has offered not only in-person preparation courses and tutoring, but also online test prep resources. With the onset of the global pandemic in 2019, the world experienced a significant shift towards utilizing online learning options, given that in-person meetings were not feasible for many months at a time. While Manhattan Review will continue to offer in-person courses and tutoring in locations where there is demand, we also encourage potential students to consider the advantages and disadvantages of online learning to determine if virtual GMAT preparation is something that might work for them. Here are a few advantages that are consistently shared with us by our online students:

More time to study

Travelling to a physical location is time consuming. Whether you are taking the New York subway, the London Tube, or driving through LA, getting from one place to another is an inconvenient—and frequently expensive—undertaking. Many students are happy to say goodbye to wasted travel time and instead focus on what matters most: preparing for the GMAT. With online learning, you can study in the comfort and convenience of your own home. Alternatively, many students enjoy learning at their favorite café or even from their place of work. Wherever you learn best, the online tutoring programs at Manhattan Review make it easy to prepare for the GMAT while saving you time and reducing travel-related expenses and stress. 

Increased flexibility

We all have busy schedules, whether that involves full-time work, leisure activities, visiting family and friends, or running errands. Preparing for the GMAT by trying to fit another in-person commitment into your schedule can be difficult and sometimes is simply not possible. With our online courses, students can take charge of their test preparation by studying when it's most convenient for them. If you are not able to attend a live virtual session for whatever reason, you can always utilize the recording of the session to ensure you stay on track and do not fall behind in your test prep. Your tutor is readily available to answer questions, both during live instructional sessions and via email in between sessions. Our online group courses and private tutoring packages are a perfect fit for busy students who work or study full-time but who are still serious about attaining an impressively high GMAT score.

If we offer an in-person class in a certain location, that class will typically be offered at the same time every week. With Manhattan Review's online learning options, you can prepare for the GMAT at times that work best for you. Our online learning courses follow the exact same syllabus as our in-person classes, so you will not learn less or miss out on test-taking techniques by choosing a virtual learning option. Our tutors are constantly updating our curriculum, most recently following the release of the GMAT Focus Edition, which means you will cover all the test-related content you need to achieve your own impressively high score on this challenging exam. Students learn best when they are able to focus without distraction, and we are proud to offer both online and in-person test preparation options to ensure you are prepared to obtain the highest test score possible.
