Tuition to Improve Literacy and Mathematics

Most people think that a nanny’s job is to look after her charges. This includes bathing, feeding and entertaining the little ones and ensuring that they are all safe and sound. I however take a special interest in their overall development and education as well. In my experience, I have come across a few children who seemed to struggle in the first year of school. Alexandra is one example. She has always struggled to concentrate. 3 years of Kindergarten didn’t seem to prepare the child for Prep year. I was discouraged to improve her situation in any way at the time because her parents received advice that my ‘intervention’ may confuse the poor child further. I was also too busy looking after the other two siblings and completing long lists of chores (that a nanny shouldn’t be made to do). Months after I left the family, her mum called to ask about tutoring services to improve Alexandra’s literacy and math skills after school. I found it hard to believe that she actually bothered to ask for my advice. I thought I was only a nanny. Score’s innovative tutoring programme would be a great help for children like Alexandra. Score! Educational Centres have been around for 15 years and they are part of the Kaplan family. Attending this type of after school programme will help Alexandra to catch up to her peers and keep up with new work at school. I dislike rushing children academically but some children do need extra help. If the child is struggling, it is best to work out a way to improve the situation now than to wait till it is too late. It is still easy to help children struggling in the early years of primary school.
