Some Nigerians who live abroad now get lesson teachers for their kids from Nigeria to help boost their children's grades in school.

The lesson is done online via zoom.

What do you think about this kind of style?

Nigerians have ways of simplifying complex ideas theoretically that a two-year old will understand. But the practical that's on a long thing.

So Nigerians in the diaspora are getting the theory explained by Nigerian teachers and the practical will be done in the abroad where they are residing.

If you ask me, that's a two factor assurance - so brilliant. That way the child will be good at both the theory and practical.

But it increases job opportunity and improves financial status of whoever wants to do the job.

Learn how to use ur mouth positively and not only for negative and character assassinations.

....... if you want to go far in life.

You guys would complain and wailing about Naija situation, the same people would quickly jump to conderm any act of improving the nation building. What else you want!

It’s a welcome idea. I have people who do that, for it’s cheaper and brings our moral values to the children because the online teachers teach as if they are teaching in Nigerian settings.

To teach indigenous languages or what?

I did this while I was in Nigeria. I prepared a kid in year five for his Primary checkpoint English and his elder brother for his GCSE. And I often prepared others for IELTS. The pay was reasonable considering the exchange rate and it was even more affordable for the parents as they're not obligated to pay minimum wage. So it's a win win!

Those saying because it's cheaper don't realise that the driver for doing this is the high quality of education in Nigeria. I understand you might not have lived outside Nigeria, so I have no problem with your views.

Most schools abroad encourage mediocrity and non ambitious learning. Many Nigerians see this gap and decide that their own child will not the bandwagon of mediocrity and so get a teacher from Nigeria who will help push the child better with a Nigerian driven curriculum.

Why do you think Nigerians top classes in UK schools for example?

Very good. One thing I love about we Nigerians is our educational system. Thorough teachings alongside heavy workloads from various subject and that's the reason you see them go to other countries and become their best students there

To the good of our economy in Nigeria.

But I don't really see the effectiveness of it as one done physically there. After all, the western cultured children can't take our system of learning.

Maybe those parents just want to save cost

It's been going for a while now.
As we speak I have 2 students I teach online and its going on fine. Its just that you must know your onions and be ready to adapt because of differences in the curricula of the two countries involved. You may also need to spend money to get the necessary materials like the recommended texts and past questions.

Moreover, it's a way some teachers earn a bit more to augment poor pay from school.

You'll be shocked to know that some of these teachers make more than their salary doing this and for just about 3hrs a week.

Sometimes the children are grouped in classes which means the teacher can earn even more.

This is by far the most preposterous comment so far on this thread. It is only a ludicrous person that'd say Nigerian Teachers teach cut and English, when it is conspicuous that we have several English Language Teachers that know their onions. Some of us that didn't study English language and aren't English language Teachers can even teach the Language well to a good extent.
