Signs That Your Student Needs A Tutor:
- Loss of interest in school and/or other activities
- Grades are slipping
- Your student seems overwhelmed with school
- The classroom is distracting and prevents your student's ability to focus
- Your student is not grasping specific concepts
- Your student is not being challenged enough to remain interested
- Your student has recently had an arduous period in his/her life (divorce, death, long term illness, etc.) which has made it difficult to focus on school.
- One difficult year in school has made it difficult for your student to catch up because they are missing some basic skills.
Why is it difficult for students to keep up?
- Class sizes today are much larger than they have been in the past.
- Teachers have many deadlines they have to meet with their curriculum and therefore can not slow down the pace.
- Students are tested frequently: Benchmark Testing, End of Level Testing, Classroom Tests and Quizzes
- All of these issues together are making it difficult for many children to keep up and/or master necessary skills.
