wonderlee 1 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) My daughter's P2 results have slack. She has home tuition but still slack.. The tutor was not able to handle my girl while lesson is on. I suspect her teaching method has got to do as my girl might not be able to understand & hence she started not to pay attention & not able to concentrate during the tuition time. Do I need to change tutor? Her former tutor was great but she can't teach my girl now. I'm so worry & depressed when I saw how she scored in her previous tests.. Mid exam is very near. How? Honestly speaking, I don't blame this current tutor but more likely is my girl's problems. I'm so loss... Any experience tutor around in this forum willing to take up this challenge?

chronograph 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 Me, haha.. I can't teach with my short temper Both me and wife are coaching our girls. Yes, it is really tough controlling our emotional, it can be stressed from work, from family, from friends etc. Imagine after a hard day work and instead of relaxing, u got to teach and u often find ourselves asking why can't she understand simple rule like this and often u find emotion get the better of u. Thus, we make it a point to remind each other whenever we lose it. I realize coaching is also a good way of bonding with your child. Besides, children have very short duration of staying focus. I'll be very happy if i can get my girls to be attentive for an hour, so we keep every session short within a hour. U can scheduled a few sessions a day as long as they are spread out probably. Try or u won't know if u can do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wonderlee 1 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 chronograph: We have tried before but knowing our limit we prefer to have a experience tutor to coach her instead. My hubby explanation is very 'chimp', sometimes I myself don't even know what is he trying to say, let alone my girl. While for me, my education is not high, hence, really not able to coach her (thou I use simple explanations) Do you have friends whom can teach? Or any forum members here do home teaching?

My neighbor is a full time tutor, but i doubt she teach in student's home. Most like student will come to her house for tuition. It is in JW, pm me if u r interested i will get the contact for u. I think she charge somewhere around 400 plus per month. Wonder if it is the market rate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
