Many parents turn to tutoring because their child is having difficulty keeping up in class. According to studies, nearly 50 percent of parents hire tutors because they feel they are unable to help their child. Here are some signs that may indicate your child can benefit from working with a tutor:
1. Avoiding doing homework and spending more time on assignments than they normally do
2. Some kids become frustrated, and eventually stop doing homework assignments
3. Low scores on classwork, quizzes and tests
4. A history of struggling with a particular subject
4. Constantly expressing their disdain for a subject (e.g. "I hate math!" "Why do we have to do math?")
5. Saying "I'm bored." Tutoring is also used to get ahead and explore topics in more depth
6. Disorganized backpack/locker
7. Doesn't want to go to school
8. Transitioning between schools going from elementary to middle and middle to high school
9. Attending school in a different city or state.
