Teaching the Student by Tutoring the Student - Is it Worthwhile?
Teaching the Student by Tutoring the Student - Is it Worthwhile?Many parents of gifted children are interested in tutoring for success and are using the same model as parents who teach their children at home to tutor their own kids. But is there any scientific evidence that this is the best model for teaching learning? Most parents and teachers look at some research on the subject, but without asking, they make the mistake of assuming that all research on tutoring for success is bad and does not work.Let us look at how this model works, but without the assumption that it will teach a child anything. First of all, the only difference between the models for tutoring for success at home and at school is that the former will provide homework help and a home study guide, and the latter will provide outside help for studies at home. Other than that, both models are just like the others.Another difference is that a parent or tutor working at home will use this model with a child who does no t have anyone to turn to for outside help. If you put the school-aged child in a classroom where no one is to take outside help, he or she will get bored and feel anxious.The theory behind this model is that most of the great tutors in history who have had wonderful outcomes were those who had no outside help. They came up with something that worked for them, and then they kept on doing it.We have this famous quote from Napoleon Hill, who said, 'You can either be a successful tutor or a successful businessman.' It has been confirmed by all kinds of research that success can be bought with hard work and determination.And this theory has also been proven to work when it comes to certain characteristics of children. For example, when a child does poorly in an exam, it often shows that he or she has a shyness. This means that the child needs more stimulation and encouragement to improve and feel better about himself or herself.Another thing to remember is that using this model is simply teaching the child some simple academic training in a fun way. The child is still learning and building his or her intellectual capabilities, so it is not like just changing from one subject to another one, and in the process forgetting what he or she has learned.
