Take time to assess the areas of learning your child enjoys the most and those which present the greatest challenges. Ask about issues that are often found at the root of academic struggles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time Management<\/strong><br \/>\nDoes your child use time wisely in preparing for assignments and tests? Do you set aside specific times for studies and other learning activities at home?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Social Balance<\/strong><br \/>\nIs involvement in numerous extracurricular activities taking time and attention away from important studies? Do you assist your child in creating the right balance among social, mental, and physical activities?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Setting Priorities<\/strong><br \/>\nDoes your child understand how to effectively prioritize tasks and work on the important tasks first? Do you weigh each activity for its long term benefit and how it may impact other areas of a child&#8217;s life?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Homework Habits<\/strong><br \/>\nDoes your child have difficulties with solving homework problems or completing assignments on time? Have you created a study zone in your home free of distractions where homework tools are easily accessible?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Educational Interest<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat are your child&#8217;s areas of primary interests and how can you use them as catalysts for higher learning? Do you encourage your child to explore areas of academic passion to learn more?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Academic Gaps<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat classes or subjects does your child enjoy the least? Can you identify any academic skill gaps which may contribute to that selection?<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve evaluated the past year with your child, take time to clearly define the goals required to elevate academic performance for next year and establish clear measures to help your child toward achieving those goals.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;In our experience,&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0notes Scott,\u00a0<em>&#8220;when children learn to\u00a0master academic skills\u00a0they&#8217;ve missed, they regain their sense of confidence, and a student with a &#8216;can do&#8217; attitude can accomplish just about anything.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Contact\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tutoringclub.com\/mcleanva\/\"><strong>Tutoring Club<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0today to learn more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michelle Scott<\/strong><br \/>\nOwner\/Director<br \/>\nTutoring Club of McLean<br \/>\n703.237.TUTOR (8886)<br \/>\nEmail:<a href=\"mailto:McLeanVA@tutoringclub.com\"><strong>McLeanVA@tutoringclub.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EVALUATE TO ELEVATE At this point of the school year, you and your child should be well aware of academic shortfalls that have emerged since last fall. &#8220;While it&#8217;s always better to\u00a0uncover problems early, it&#8217;s never too late to evaluate academic progress and take steps to elevate your student&#8217;s long<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-education"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>EVALUATE TO ELEVATE - Tutoring Club of McLean \/ N.
