How do I know if my child needs tutoring?

 

There are many ways to tell if a child might benefit from private tutoring;

please review the list below to read some reasons that might help you.

Every child has what we call a frustration point.

If your child's frustration point towards school work has dropped it is also a pretty good sign that tutoring could help them.

Tutoring helps a child's confidence and our tutors will help you identify any troubles your child is having in school.

Then we will work with your student to overcome the problem and get them back on the right track.

??????????????????????????????????????????

Do you test students to see where help is needed?

 

In most cases, yes. If a parent is unaware of the problem, we will test the student.

Along with testing, we also try to get information from a child's teacher, such as recent and upcoming assignments;

also, we try to find out where the teacher thinks there is a problem.

We take every step necessary to identify trouble spots for a student.

This insures that we are helping your student to the best of our ability and giving them the attention they need.

What improvements should I see in my child?

 

Though we are unable to give you exact numbers and figures,

we do guarantee that your child will feel more comfortable with the subject they are learning.

Every student learns differently and at their own pace,

with this in mind, we will help your child improve.

Tutoring is a proven way to help a child's grades improve,

but please remember that with some students improvement is a process,

not an immediate action.

How soon should I see improvement in my child's grades?

 

Every student learns differently and at their own pace.

With this in mind, we do guarantee that you will see an improvement,

but to give you an exact or even an estimated time, without first working with your child, would be unfair.

This is a question you should ask your teacher during the first few lessons.

In order to be accurate about each individual student, we do not try to guess an average ability.

How does your tutoring service work?

 

After you call or email us to set up a time, your teacher will come to you.

During the first lesson, your teacher will evaluate you or your child to get an idea of your learning style.

Then, your teacher will spend the time before your next lesson, designing a lesson plan to fit the student.
