The Tutoring Tipping Point
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Remember Concerned Grandmother who was worried that her grandchildren, ages 11 and 13, were unmotivated? Well, she has another dilemma. Andrew, the 13-year-old, is having a hard time in math. He goes to after-school tutoring and appears to be genuinely trying to pull up his grade. He did not struggle with math in elementary school.
Grandmother wants to know if a professional tutor outside the school may be in order.
Parents and parents, how do you know when it’s time for a tutor? How do you choose a tutor?
