How to understand if a child needs a tutor in 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th grade? Most parents, for objective reasons, are not able to delve deeply into the specifics of a child's education. Grades serve as an indicator of success. But what are grades? If they have changed, this does not mean at all that the child has become smarter or dumber, his abilities or capabilities have changed.      

    The reasons for the changes are different - conflicts, boredom in the classroom, loss of interest in learning, misunderstanding of the material. The tutor has to create such learning conditions that would solve this child's problem.

       The advantages of additional classes are obvious: an increase in the level of knowledge and, as a result, an improvement in current school grades. What are the downsides? They are there too. If parents do not understand the true reasons for the decline in academic performance, then individual lessons can form a child's wrong approach to learning. He will begin to believe that he does not have to be attentive in the classroom, because adults will solve all problems.

    So is it worth hiring a tutor in grade 5? No, if the child is banally lazy, does not want to study at all, he has poor grades in several subjects. Yes, and you need to look at https://tutors.gioschool.com/tutors if the reason for the failure is:
