So I managed to get onto the website and find my survey (after finding out that my school dind't delete my email as well as survey) (:
Okay so this will be a long post since SurveyMonkey is really hard to export data unless you have premium (which I don't) so I'll just state the facts etc. here. For some I will include some responses from participants and if you realise it's yours and you don't want me to have it there then PM me and I'll remove it for you (in case if there are any people who want to remain anonymous but it's a student survey for my school assignment last year so yeah... LOL). Also do realise that there were a few dodgy mistakes which I made along the way so yeah.. XD
Anyway, as of 18/07/13 (I forgot to turn off the survey so people have done the survey just now), there have been 40 responses. Of the 40 there were:
As an age group (mixed), they were:
- 13 years - 15 years: 12
- 16 years - 18 years: 15
- 18 years - 25 years: 13
Surprisingly (for me anyway), the days in which people would like to be tutored on were:
- Weekdays - 24 (Tuesday the most popular option)
- Weekends - 16 (Saturday the most popular option)
Next up I stuffed up (I think) but this question was looking at what people looked for in a tuition company. The results concluded:
- Price - 7
- Experience - 6
- The way they teach (E.g Online classes/Rote learning environment) - 6
- All of the Above - 29
- All of the Above/Other (Please specify) - 9
In the last option, other options which people specified including things such as location, humour and as well as 'what my parents pick' just to name a few.
The next question I asked was pretty dodgy but I was happy with the results LOL but the question was whether you prefered tutors that had over 5+ years experience in their respective subject or tutors who are straight out of university with their degree in their respective subject. Results were:
- Teachers with 5+ experience - 22
- University Student with degree - 14
- Can't decide? Please tell us why! - 11
In the last option, things which were answered included things saying that both had pros and cons, just having good communication skills is fine as well as Year 12 graduates since they're more familiar and recent to the VCE system compared to others.
This question was a question which anyone could answer and I had 34 responses (since I forgot to add it in at the start so they'll be less answers from the 13 - 15 age group) but results concluded that majority wanted tutoring in Math/English (this includes VCE Maths like Spesh/Further/Methods) and for the sciences it was Chemistry followed by Biology and then Physics
There were also language subjects like French/Chinese which people answered.
This question was a good one for me to see since it spread quite a lot on the extreme ends. This question asked how much money you spend on tuition in AUD (excluding uni tutorials) and the results were:
- $0 - 13
- $100 - $300 - 9
- $300 - $500 - 5
- $500 - $1000 - 4
- >$1000 - 10
For those who did not do tutoring I asked why they didn't. I had 17 responses for this question and answers ranged from being in university (no need) to saying that self studying is the best as well as location (regional student). Others said they had enough resources like using AN and that it'd be a waste of time to actually do tutoring and some said that they didn't want one since they're not failing or doing poorly to suggest they need one (except for one person who said they're not failing but not a '
TrueTears level achiever' LOL)
And that concludes my survey! Hopefully that gives people some indication as to how a small portion of AN as well as others about how they feel about tuition (if not well... it certainly helped me attain a good grade for my assignment so it's a win-win situation haha
)
On another note, SurveyMonkey is good but getting the results (especially responses) is hard but it's a good website to use for simple surveys like this!
