“The decision to find your child a tutor is an important one, and one that may help them catch up with or surpass peers in school. Tutors can help students improve grades across the board, prepare for important standardized tests, or simply work through issues within one specific subject. All children learn differently, however, so it is crucial to find a tutor that is a good fit for your child. There are a number of ways to go about locating a tutor. You can, for instance, call your child’s counselor or teacher to ask for recommendations. Some schools offer after-school homework clinics and tutoring from its actual teachers, and others have designed peer tutoring programs so that older children can help younger children with their studies. Even public libraries often have such programs.” (07/06)
