Homework Assistance: live online homework help
In short: Homework Assistance is live online help with the homework your child's school set, in one 55-minute session each school day, Monday to Friday. A teacher helps your child complete it, explains the why and the how, and checks the work before it is submitted. It runs one-to-one at AED 600 a month, or in a group of three at AED 500 a month, excl. 5% VAT, for CBSE and ICSE students in Grades 3 to 12. It is not regular tuition. Watch a free demo class first.
Who it is for
For the child whose problem is not understanding the lesson. It is getting the work finished, correctly, before bedtime. It tends to fit when:
- Homework turns into a nightly argument at the kitchen table.
- Your child understands the class but stalls at home, and the work arrives late, rushed or wrong.
- You can’t sit with them every evening, or the subject has moved past what you remember.
- Your child needs a routine: a fixed time each school day to get the work done and checked.
If your child needs one subject taught properly, not just the homework done, Specialised Subjects is the better fit (see the comparison below).
What your child gets
- Help with the homework their school set, in one 55-minute session each school day, Monday to Friday.
- Across all subjects, for CBSE or ICSE, in any grade from 3 to 12.
- The why and the how, not just the answer. The teacher helps your child complete the work and explains how to get there, so the understanding stays with your child.
- Work checked before it is submitted.
- Study habit, planning and time management built in.
- One-to-one or a group of three. A group of three is made up of children in the same grade, following the same curriculum, and you can switch between one-to-one and group.
- Live, cameras on both sides, between 2:00 PM and 9:00 PM Gulf Standard Time (GST).
One-to-one or a group of three
| Format | Who is in the session | Price |
|---|---|---|
| One-to-one | One teacher and your child | AED 600 a month, excl. 5% VAT |
| Group of three | Your child and two other students in the same grade, following the same curriculum | AED 500 a month, excl. 5% VAT |
For Homework Assistance, one-to-one costs AED 100 a month more than a group of three, excl. 5% VAT. If you are weighing the two formats, our guide Small-group or one-to-one online tuition: which is better for your child? sets out what the research says.
One-to-one safeguards. A one-to-one class runs without a parent present only after a parent has given consent, once, by replying to the enrolment email. A parent can join any class, at any time, without notice. Teachers may not contact students privately by phone, message, email or social media. Read our child protection policy.
