Grades That Are Slipping
If you find that your child has had a sudden decline in their scores, or that they have a lot more potential to be doing better than what they are achieving, it is important to talk to your child’s school teacher. The teacher will be able to accurately point out topics and subjects your child has difficulty understanding. Once the specific problem areas have been identified, you will be able to take specific actions such as engaging a tutor to help improve their grades.
Low Confidence
It is normal for children to feel uncertain when they are learning new concepts, but a child’s confidence can take a serious hit if they feel that they are not smart enough to do well in school. If your child is always sad and saying that he or she cannot keep up with what they are learning in school, then it may be time to engage a tutor. A tutor will be able to help fill in knowledge gaps and in turn, raise your child’s confidence when they are better able to understand the concepts they initially found challenging.
Unable to Manage Time Well
If your child is involved in many extra curricular activities and has other commitments, they may not be able to keep up when the workload increases or if the difficulty of the curriculum increases. If your child does not have enough time to revise their work or falls prey to procrastination instead of studying, then a tutor can help. A tutor will be able to help improve the study habits of your child and help them become more motivated in keeping up with the deadlines.
Decreasing Supervision from Parents
When parents become even busier, it may be difficult for them to continue giving their children high levels of attention. In these cases, a tutor can help to supervise the child and ensure that they understand all the concepts that are being taught in school. They are also able to keep your child on time and complete their work before the deadlines.
