You may have chosen your child’s math tutor based on good reviews that you read or a friend’s recommendation.
Maybe things were going really well the first month or two, but now you can’t help wondering if your child is getting full value from the tutoring session that you are paying for.
When you’re paying $30 to $50 an hour, you want to make sure your child is really improving their math skills!
If your child’s grades aren’t providing enough of an indication that they are getting the most from their math tutor, then look out for these additional signs.
A rocky routine and unclear expectations are driving you and your child nuts!
Your child craves routine because it teaches them, “how to constructively manage themselves and their environments.” Having organizational skills and structure also ensures your child is working and learning efficiently and effectively.
Imagine the tutor comes to your house on a different day each week. It will confuse your child as they try to keep track of which day they have tutoring. It may throw off their other activities and homework if the tutor suddenly changes their schedule!
A Thinkster Math tutor ensures your child maintains a clear routine — from a set tutoring day each week to how your child spends time completing and reviewing their daily assignments.
The tutor also shares the learning plan and topics that your child is going to review. They set goals to help your child manage their time and effort spent completing assignments.
Your child’s tutor speaks to your child during the coaching sessions about the learning plan and their upcoming worksheets. This helps your child become accountable for their own work and progress.
