Prof  Eshiwani wants  research contacted on Private Tuition

Mt  Kenya  University Pro.Chancellor Prof George Eshiwani wants research contacted on the effect of private tuition to students preparing for examination in Kenya
He appealed to Minister of Education Mutula Kalonzo  to trade well on the matter because they are likely going to affect examination results early next year because it is away of preparing students for examination.
The Prof Made the remark during the official launching of the Mt Kenya University seven year research strategic plan at the Nairobi Serena Hotel on Friday  24  August 2012
Prof Eshiwani instead advised Mr Mutula Kilonzo to allow private  tuition to continue  for this year   and burn it in Jan  when the Schools open in order to avoid shame during the forthcoming examination results
He warns that  unless Minister of Education Mutula Kalonzo trade well there will be disaster during exam announcement because teachers  had there own  secrets   during tuition and yet nobody had not contacted research on its effects to students.
Even though some parents had complain that some teachers are confusing students during private tuition research needs to be conducted pointed out Eshiwani who is the former Kenyatta University  Vc.
Instead he appealed to both  Private and Public Universities to contact research on the effect of tuition to its  students so that both Parents and Ministry of Education can easily understand each other
Since his announcement on the ban of tuition in School there had been war of wards between teachers, parents and the Minister withMutula threatening to take action who went ahead wittution.
On Friday  24  August the  Minister warns Makini School and Riara against contacting tuition  during this School holidays and over the weekend because students needs to have time with there parents and also
  attended Church services
 There had been claims that parents had left there children's to teachers instead of introducing them to Africa way of life during holidays.
 Even there had been claims that some children dont know there names of some animals because they are born in the city and had never been to rural homes in there life time.
 According to Prof Eshiwani only research will clear the view on the matter which is likely going to affect examination results early in the year.
