Enhance Academic Performance: Expert Homework Help in NY

Pres mult | 25 May 2023

As we all know, getting kids to complete their homework can be a challenging task for parents. Even though parents try their best to help their children, some assignments can be difficult, and they may not have all the answers. Even they may know the answer to a math or reading problem but struggle to explain the process to their children. Luckily, WhizKidz Tutoring offers homework help programs in NY that provide excellent assistance to both parents and students. Our skilled homework helpers bridge the gap by providing answers and teaching fundamental problem-solving strategies. With their guidance, parents can be confident that their children will receive the necessary support to succeed academically.

Defining the Role of Tutoring

Hiring a tutor is similar to having a private instructor for your child. A tutor in NY provides learning assistance to help your student learn new concepts and complete assignments. The ultimate goal is to help your students become independent learners. Tutors may offer basic, special, or additional instruction to meet learning goals.

Tutors maintain a skill set that uniquely allows them to provide the best educational assistance to their students. Some of the skills they use daily are:

• Technical knowledge
• Active listening
• Communication
• Confidentiality
• Patience
• Positivity
• Empathy
• Problem-solving
• Leadership
• Time management

Using those skills, tutors interact with students and parents to develop a tutoring program that best suits the student. WhizKidz tutors form a bridge between schools, students, and parents to provide homework assistance.

Tutoring and Homework Help in NY

WhizKidz Tutoring works with New York schools and remains aware of curriculum and learning standards. This allows them to provide grade-level assistance with homework, special projects, and general subjects. Wherever your student needs help, our tutors can provide guidance.

WhizKidz Tutoring offers tutoring and homework help to students from Pre-K to college prep and beyond. Whether your student has trouble focusing after school in several subjects or just one, our tutors are ready to step up. Among the talents that a tutor has:

• Thorough knowledge in subject-area or grade level
• Exemplary verbal and written communication abilities
• Motivation expertise to encourage students to set goals for success

WhizKidz can provide a tutor with a broad educational background to help your child with homework, general studying practices, or special projects as needed, regardless of your student’s age or grade level.

Elementary Level Tutoring

Elementary school tutoring begins at the Pre-Kindergarten level and through grade 6. Although homework isn’t always a problem at this level, tutors can work with students to develop good home study habits.

The responsibilities of an elementary-level tutor are to improve knowledge and understanding in various subject areas. Duties may differ based on the age and level of the student, but some of the things a tutor can help with are:

• Homework
• Study habits
• Confidence building

Tutors may work with elementary students in one subject area or several, depending on what is needed. Sessions may be conducted in person or online.

If your child does better in a small group setting, WK Pods has services offering group tutoring in groups with two to six students. Students will be paired based on age and grade level, which increases peer-to-peer learning also.

Secondary Level Tutoring

Once students reach sixth grade, they often have increasing homework assignments. Tutors at the secondary level work with students in grades 6 through 12. They will assist students in developing good study habits and routines and provide additional assistance as necessary. Some of the specific areas a tutor will help with are:

• Assisting with homework, test prep, research practices, and similar academic tasks
• Ensure that students understand key concepts taught in the classroom
• Teaching skills to improve study habits, note-taking, and studying techniques
• Help in understanding specific subjects and assignments
• Help with test-taking strategies to improve academic performance
• Providing positive feedback to promote student growth and confidence building

Because every student is different, tutors may adjust their practices to adapt to how the student learns best.

Tutoring at the secondary level can be in a one-on-one in-person setting or small groups through WK Pods.

Taming the Homework Beast

Tutors will work with students to develop a homework routine that works. Some students may need complete quiet, while others prefer quiet music playing in the background. WhizKidz tutors work with your student to determine how they learn most effectively and build on that.

The result will be parents having a student that utilizes homework time effectively to complete assignments accurately and on time.

Developing a Routine

One of the priorities for a tutor is to establish a homework routine. It takes approximately three weeks (21 days) to form a new habit. Meeting at the same time daily or several times per week will make your student accustomed to the routine after the first few weeks.

Once a routine is established, your student will have greater self-esteem and confidence and improve academically.

How Tutoring Can Help

WhizKidz tutors bring flexibility and creativity to the table. This helps them provide a customized plan to assist your student most effectively. Additionally, they offer compassion and patience to allow students to develop at their own pace.
