How To Find A Math Tutor For Your Child
Math, especially algebra, can be hard
for some people to learn. Many schools are over burdened with
students. The student to teacher ratio is horrendous. If your child
is beginning to slip behind in there math class then it may be time
for you to find them a tutor to help them with their math.
Parents
If you as the mother or father of the
child excelled at math then you may be the best math tutor available
for your child. If you are truly up to date on your math skills and
know how to do the math problems then feel free to help your child as
needed.
You may want to talk with the math
teacher first. The way math is taught may have changed since you went
attended school. You simply want to make sure that the way you solve
the http://privatetutor.info/ problem is the same method the math teacher is teaching.
If you are up to par and feel confident
in your skills to help your child in math then step up to the plate.
Do not make math homework something your child despises. If you are
normally a dominant and bossy parent then calm down. Once your child
knows that you are no there to yell at them they will be more apt to
take your help.
High School Students
If your child needs a math tutor you
can find many great math students at the local high school.
Regardless of whether your child is in high school, junior high, or
elementary school, you can find a good math student to help tutor
your child.
Network with the http://www.kumon.com/ school counselor or
one of the math teachers to find a great math student who would be
willing to tutor your child for some pocket change.
Teacher
Many times the math teacher may be able
to help tutor the student. Speak with the teacher and see if he or
she is able to provide some one on one tutoring time for your child.
They may be able to help your child early in the morning, after
school, and even at lunchtime.
Online Math Tutors
There are many online based math tutor
programs available such as TutorVista and Kaplan. For some kids
online math tutoring may not be the best option but other kids may
prefer to get tutored online.
Importance Of Math
Many kids do not have an interest in
math as they do not see how it will help them. If you can relate math
to something the child is interested in it will make it much easier.
The classic example is baseball stats. If your child is interested in baseball then teach them how theykeep stats. Once your child begins
to track baseball stats he or she will have a strong understanding of
percentages and how averages work.
If you child gets behind one day in
math class then it may be extremely hard to get them caught up to the
rest of the class if you do not provide them a tutor.
