There are many strategies available to support your child. Sometimes a coloured overlay can support reading, having key words for subjects displayed and attempting to learn common spelling rules, can all help your child. It is also a good idea to revisit the principles of phonics.
Children are often unsure of how to structure a sentence and often do not understand how to correctly use commas or apostrophes. They might also not understand a particular spelling rule or confuse past and present tense when writing. These skills have usually been taught in school but are then forgotten or there is a lack of reinforcement in lessons. Tuition offers a chance for children to receive instant feedback, support and clarification.
This boosts their confidence, skills and then ultimately their grades!
