Sometimes, though, a little extra one-to-one or small group time helps a child get back on track. Here are signs worth noticing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs in schoolwork<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Homework takes much longer than it should, or often ends in tears.<\/li>\n\n<li>Marks have dropped in one subject, or comments from school mention gaps.<\/li>\n\n<li>Your child can follow along in class but struggles to work on their own.<\/li>\n\n<li>Basic skills, such as times tables or spelling, still slow them down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs in confidence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They say they are \u201cbad at\u201d a subject or avoid talking about it.<\/li>\n\n<li>They rush through work to get it over with, or will not start at all.<\/li>\n\n<li>Upcoming tests make them unusually worried.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs it is about stretch, not catch-up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tutoring is not only for children who are behind. A child who finishes work quickly and wants more challenge, or who is preparing for an entrance exam, can also enjoy focused sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to do next<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Talk to your child\u2019s teacher first. They can tell you where your child is and what would help most.<\/li>\n\n<li>Ask your child how they feel about the subject, and listen without judging.<\/li>\n\n<li>If you try tutoring, look for a free assessment, clear goals and regular updates on progress.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every child learns at their own pace. The aim is not perfect marks but steady progress and a child who feels able to try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not sure whether your child needs extra help?
