How do I know if my Student Needs a Tutor?

Children today are faced with different challenges then when their parents went to school. Is it due to technology advancements with social media and the accessibility of data from any device at anytime, causing distraction on cell phones and tablets? Is it the academic demand to raise the bar to compete with outside countries? Is it too many activities that children are engaged with, that prohibits them to focus on their school work because they are exhausted? Is it their diet and the way food is processed today compared to years ago? Many people will say YES, to all the above! The reality is, we cannot change the way the technology has advanced, nor the fact that the Academic demand has increased. What parents can do is take a step back and try to understand the root of their child’s problem. Maybe limit the cell phone or tablet usage to weekends. Maybe limit after school activities to 2 instead of 4. Maybe replace the high sugar processed foods with low sugar natural foods? Each one of these can be looked at individually and by process of elimination help some children get more focused and improve their overall ability to learn. For other children they may need a little more help on comprehending specific topics faster than others. This is where Athena can help.
