Benefits of Tutoring for your Child

So, why should you consider hiring a tutor if your child is not struggling? Here are a few reasons: 

• Tutoring can provide personal attention that teachers simply don’t have the time to offer. Sometimes a child can feel lost in a room of 25 or 30 kids.

 

• Sometimes a child is gifted, but advancing her to the next grade may be inappropriate. A tutor can offer challenges and special assignments to keep her excited about learning.

 

• A tutor isn’t Mom or Dad. Despite having wonderful relationships with their children, at least 90 percent of my students’ parents say they have trouble helping their children (particularly teenagers) with schoolwork. Children are more willing to open their minds in one-on-one academic settings when parent-child dynamics aren’t involved.

Having a tutor makes many children feel special. Back when I was in school, having a tutor came with the stigma of underachievement. Today, however, many kids view tutoring as a privilege. They feel they deserve this special “coaching,” much as gifted athletes are often privately trained.
