How often should my child get tutoring to quickly raise his grade in his worst class?
If a student is really struggling with one particular class, then it can be helpful to meet twice a week or even three times a week until the student is caught up. As a tutor helps the student get back on track, they will go back through old tests, quizzes, homework, and other assignments, working at a pace that is right for the student. Of course, some time will have to be spent on current material as well, but usually when a student gets behind, it is impossible to understand and complete current assignments without first going back through the older material. Then, once this process is complete, and the student is working more independently, it can be a good idea to cut back to once or twice a week. Typically, once a week is the minimum for a class that has been challenging for a student.
