Sometimes, things don’t go to plan. Sometimes we struggle to cope with challenges on our own.
That’s when a little extra help can set us on the right path – and guide us forward to help us make a real go of things.
It’s the same for our kids.
Every child’s learning journey is different, of course. In fact, we’ve heard countless stories over the years of the challenges young people face.
Often, parents getting in touch asking for help is later on down the line when things have gone badly awry. It helps, then, to spot the signs earlier.
Shall we look at what some of them tend to be?
Signs Your Child is Struggling
Some children are really good at making the most of it, and finding their own way through a problem at school. Others aren’t so lucky.
Perhaps you’ve noticed one of some of these?
- Falling grades despite consistent effort
- Anxiety around homework – often!
- Difficulty staying focused
- Teacher reports show underachievement
- Coasting along without motivation
There might be several reasons… Plus, your son or daughter might have a learning difficulty, fallen behind due to teacher issues, or something’s happened at school or home that’s sent them reeling.
That’s where a private tutor can make all the difference.
In one-to-one tuition, you’d be amazed at how fast a tutor can help your child pick up the pieces, and get back on track.
What Can a Private Tutor Help With?
Many parents tell us how life-changing academic intervention has been. Always so humbling when we hear this…
Here’s just some of the ways a private tutor can make a difference:
- Rebuild and regain confidence in tricky subjects
- Clarify confusing concepts to broaden understanding
- Help develop better study and time management skills
- Enable a young person to feel positive about themselves
Plus, a private tutor can also enrich learning for gifted students who simply need more challenge..
We often come across very able students who have fallen through the net as they’re not challenged enough. That can happen at every key stage from KS2 to KS5.
Advanced learners can hugely benefit from working with a personal tutor who can help take them to the next level while fostering deep understanding of a particular discipline.
Proactive Learning Can Start Today
All too often, those tough experiences can erode a young person’s self esteem. That’s why we don’t want young people to simply survive their school days – we want them to truly THRIVE.
If you’ve thought about private tuition, and fancy having a chat about how we could help, you’ve nothing to lose.
Sometimes, all it takes is a mindset shift that’s the real turning point. Something our trusty tuition team are adept at.
