MIDWINTER MIGHT BE THE RIGHT TIME TO BEGIN WORKING WITH A TUTOR
At Liddane, we work with students of all ages. When to hire a tutor depends on the individual student. If your child is struggling in one or more subjects in school, they may reach a point where the rest of the class is moving on but they haven't mastered the basics. This can leave your child feeling insecure, making it harder and harder for them to catch up. Tutoring can provide consistent, professional support, one-on-one lessons, and coaching to develop the skills needed for lifelong learning. Topics covered can be specifically tailored to individual students. For example, a student who struggles with reading might go back over phonics and letter sounds. Children can review without feeling embarrassed in front of their peers.
Tutoring is flexible and can focus on the specific needs of each child and family. Children may attend once or multiple times a week, can increase time during school breaks, and can discontinue once they have mastered the skills needed.
If your child is struggling to keep up with the regular pace of work or if you see that your child's grades are beginning to drop in a class or subject, it might be time to consider hiring a tutor.
