Private tuition means the extra coaching that is provided outside the regular institutions. This study explores how managers of tuition academies describe the effectiveness of private tuition academies for students’ creative and critical learning. In this study, the semi-structured interview design was chosen, and a purposive sampling technique was employed to recruit 13 participants. A semi-structured interview guide was designed and improved after expert opinion. Managers of tuition academies highlighted that private tuition academy had a strong and positive effect on students’ achievement. They argued that the education system is examination-oriented; therefore, they provided notes and guess papers to students and more focused on drill learning, thus becoming helpful in achieving higher marks in the examination rather than focusing on students’ creative and critical learning. This has some implications for the education system in Pakistan because this can attract students and parents who are after good grades. However, extra coaching methods used in academies may inhibit students’ creative and critical skills.
