6 Tutoring Tips for Parents

How to Support Your Child’s Learning Through Tutoring

Tutoring has become a popular way for parents to help their children get the extra support they need to succeed academically.  With the right approach, tutoring can be an effective tool for improving or maintaining grades, boosting academic confidence & helping with test anxiety.  As a parent, it is important to understand how to support your child’s learning through tutoring.  Here are some tips for parents to help their child get the most out of tutoring:

1. Set Realistic Expectations: Tutoring is not a miracle cure for academic struggles. Parents should understand that tutoring may not immediately produce perfect scores or grades. Instead, it should be seen as a long-term process that may take months or even years to show results.

2. Be Supportive: Help your child develop a positive attitude towards tutoring. It’s a lot easier to tutor a child that wants to come in to learn. Encourage your child to take ownership of the process and to view tutoring as an opportunity to learn and grow.

3. Ensure Consistency: Establish a regular schedule for tutoring and avoid missing any sessions. This will help your child become comfortable with the process and allow them to progress more quickly with the routine.

4. Communicate with the Directors: It is important to establish an open line of communication with the directors at The Learning Space. Ask questions about the process, provide feedback, and discuss any concerns or issues.  The directors oversee the programs and make modifications as needed as a child progresses.

5. Monitor Progress: Keep track of your child’s progress at school so that you can celebrate their successes and address any areas of difficulty that may need to be brought to our attention.

6. Provide Incentives: Consider offering incentives for completing assignments or making progress. This can help motivate your child to stay on track and work hard.

By following some of these tips, parents can support their child’s learning through tutoring at The Learning Space and help them get the most out of the experience. With the right approach, tutoring can be an effective way to boost academic confidence and improve grades.
