With a prolonged period at home, studying remotely can start to become more difficult as routines start to wane and boredom takes a hold. Students start to lose their focus and parents find it harder to keep them motivated. Schools are doing their best to provide online learning modules with many new to this format. The teachers are doing a great job in very difficult circumstances, but it is hard to ensure that online learning is sustainable and meaningful when you are trying to run a household and, in many instances, keep working on the day job!
Now could be time to consider enlisting some extra support. Taking on a tutor has several benefits aside from the specialist knowledge they can impart. It is an opportunity to create some structure and help get students back on track with their studies and give some direction in preparing for the next academic year. Helping them fill gaps in their knowledge can act as an opportunity to re-engage with learning.
Pupils who are working towards Pre-Test, 11+ or Common Entrance need to be focused. Just one tutorial a week can help consolidate course work from school, energise and stimulate whilst helping them delve deeper into a subject. It can give the week some structure and purpose with a good tutor acting as a positive role model
