Do I Need a Tutor

Is Tutoring For Your Child?

Stomach aches on school days...
Lack of interest in assignments...
Behavior problems begin to arise in school...

These are often the first signs that your child is having trouble at school. For a child who struggles just to keep up, falling behind can feel like chasing a train that has left the station - you might as well give up and go home. Tuning in to your child's schoolwork problems early and getting him the help he needs will make it easier for him to hop back on board.

How can you tell if your child needs extra help?

A Tutor May Be the Answer If Your Child:

*  Dislikes School 
*  Struggles with homework
*  Frequently forgets homework or doesn't turn it in
*  Demonstrates a pattern of slowly failing grades in school
*  Develops low self esteem and thinks negatively of himself in relation to school performance
*  Makes excuses as to why she is not working up to his or her ability
*  Acts out in school or loses interest in learning
*  Struggles to focus on a task (spends time daydreaming, or is easily distracted, etc)
*  Has test scores that do not reflect his or her daily performance

Take Action - Don't Wait!

When you feel that your child is falling behind don't wait to seek help. Schedule a meeting with your child's teacher as soon as possible to determine if your child is on target for their grade level.  Talk about the various options that are available to help your child succeed. Taking a proactive approach to your child's learning is critical in the long run. A few months of tutoring now could not only keep your child from a declining low self-esteem but could also save them from repeating an entire school year.



What Most People Don't Realize:

Tutors can also be utilized to help excel students above grade level! Many teachers and parents today are satisfied when students are making grade level requirements, however, many students may be capable of excelling above those requirements. A tutor can help be the difference between your child being "status quo", or being at the top of their class - or higher - in all subject areas.
