Difficulties learning how to read and write?
Having a solid knowledge of how to read and write is a fundamental skill necessary for school success. Without being able to read and write, students quickly fall behind in all their academics. Today’s emphasis on electronics and short bursts of information can make it more challenging for a student to find reading attractive, but it is necessary. In addition to that, Elementary School teachers may have a hard time tending to each child’s literacy needs in a class full of other students with diverse needs.
A primary school tutor can help your child to overcome any issues that may be interfering with their reading and writing comprehension.
English in a way it makes sense
Learning English reading and writing can actually be fun! Our tutors do their best to instill a taste for reading and writing in their students. This can make a big difference to schooling, especially when the tutoring can begin with Primary students. Even though it can sometimes be difficult to learn how to read and write, the support of a tutor can make this challenge easier and more fun. Reading and writing are fundamental skills necessary to a successful school career.
For English Language Learners
For families that don’t speak English at home, studying English at school can be challenging, especially for the first school years. Solidifying knowledge from a new language at the same time as you are learning how to read and write can be daunting.
English Language Learner Classes
That is why most schools assign second language learners to English Language Learner (ELL) classes until the student feels more comfortable with English. Getting a tutor to help with homework can definitely be a big help.
For students struggling with Math
First steps into Math
The first years of Elementary school are the building blocks for a good understanding of Math. Many students that struggle with Math at Middle School and High School missed some of the foundational math skills in their elementary school years. Math requires that all the building blocks be in place for the higher concepts to make sense.
That is why it is so important to start learning Math on a good note. If you feel like your child may be getting behind in Math, try to address the issue with their teacher and if possible, find them an elementary Math tutor.
