For many parents, the decision to hire elementary school tutors is daunting. Some questions like these may come to mind:

Does my elementary school student really need a tutor?

They have resources in school—won't they catch my child up?

Will my child feel like seeing a tutor is a punishment?

My child spends so many hours at school already. Do they really need a tutor in their out-of-school hours?

However, if your child is struggling with academic difficulties,a tutor can alleviate a great deal of stress.

Does your child need academic support from a tutor? Just as importantly, is online tutoring the best solution for your kid's educational and personal needs?

More often than not, your child will not outright tell you they need a little extra help with their studies. If you see these five signs, you may find that an online tutor can help your child overcome challenges in the classroom, improve a poor attitude toward school, or even alleviate academic dishonesty.

Are you noticing these signs in your child?

During the school year, parents find themselves with a full plate. Not only are you trying to earn money for your family, but you also have to be a human calendar and manage appointments, meetings, and extracurricular activities.

Given all of that, it can be exhausting to help your kids with their homework as well. After a busy day, with both of you drained, everyone could use some help.

As most schools in the United States reopen their doors to in-person learning for the fall, many students and parents revel in this comforting return to normalcy.

But like other facets of society, the pandemic has permanently reshaped the educational system in many ways.

When your child needs a tutor, finding the right one is critical. Not every tutor is the right fit for every child. Just like there are some teachers your child will identify and connect with more than others, you may find that your child gets along much better with one tutor than another—and therefore that your child is more willing to work for that tutor than they might be for someone else.

Want to be sure that you're finding the right tutor for your child? Make sure you're taking these factors into consideration.
