Are you considering tuitions for your child? It could be very beneficial if you go about it in the right manner.Often we hear of young children taking tuitions in far too many subjects than required. One finds that more than any other reason, a parent feels that this way at least the child will be forced to focus on a particular subject. He will revise it, and complete any homework. Without tuitions, the child may not be disciplined enough to sit down, revise what he has been taught at school, or complete his homework. As a result, his final grades suffer. Although parents and teachers alike frown at the concept of tuitions, one has to remember that unless you send your child to too many tuitions, it really doesnt mean that you are burdening your child too much. In this articleSchool is fun!Dont pay attention to what others sayIts all about revisionLimit the burden School is fun! Many children have a rollicking good time in school. They fool around during class, pay no attention to what the teacher is saying, and play around with friends in school during the breaks. After this, they come home with homework that shouldnt take them more than a couple of hours a day. Of course, many children leave their homework undone until the last minute, and then they either stay up late doing it, or dont do it at all and just copy everything from friends the next day. Dont pay attention to what others say So it really doesnt matter if you start your child on tuitions when they are a little younger. If you think it is right for your child, dont let other parents discourage you from doing so. The decision should be solely yours and your childs. Janam and Rita were both wondering if they should start tuitions for their 11-year-old daughters. Their friends discouraged them saying the children are too young and will be overburdened, and Janam dropped the idea, while Rita enrolled her child for Math tuitions. The result? There was a marked improvement in Ritas childs grades, and the Math tuitions were held for just one hour, twice a week. A small sacrifice, for large gains. Its all about revision The best part about tuitions is that your child gets to revise what he did in school, and as a result the subject matter gets firmly entrenched in his mind. If your child is strong in studies or is disciplined and revises his schoolwork on a daily basis, you dont need to send him for extra coaching at a young age. But if you feel his grades need a push, you could always try sending him for tuitions and see if it makes a difference. Children that dont pay attention in class often have no idea as to what has been covered, much less understand the subject. What they then do is start cramming a month before the exams and manage to get through. Limit the burden Your childs grades may not be very bad, but if you feel that your child is intelligent and will do much better only if he were more hardworking, you could consider getting tuitions for him. Dont overburden him, and fix up no more than one tuition a day at the most. Also, if your child is below the 8th standard, request the tuition teacher not to give your child any homework.

I am totally not into sending my kid for tuition as I trust Orchids International School in Bangalore where my kid is studying. Learning environment is really great and stimulating for kid to learn and become more creative. I always help my kid when it comes to studies.
it is always better for the parent to sit with the child to get his homework done. this way there is parent-child bonding as well as there is involvement from the parent's side. also, the parent can do his work side by side while he does his work. this way the child also feels important.
in this bussy life parents do,nt get enough time to look after their children educational progress which is hard to avoid,so good tutor is blessing for them and their child.
i live in the very eriticroatic society where success determines ones future. i have no had a sngle tution in the toughest subjects and i am now off to the us to do medincine. many people told us that tution could push my 99 to a 100. tutions are in my opinion an extra stress on the cild. ultimately , the child will think that for the money that his parents spend that can be up to 60 dollars an hr , he has to do well to make it fruitful. i must say that genius is one percent god given and 99 percent determination. encourage your chiuld there is no better tution .
deciding at what age to send your child for tuition can be tricky. uptil 5th standard, the parent should take responsibility for the child's studies. later on it is okay. why would you need to send a 5 year old for tuitions.
