[quote=Anonymous]I think you need another tutor. It sounds like your 6 year old has a particular learning challenge and that part of that challenge relates to attention (plus, 6 year olds all have trouble focusing). A tutor experienced in learning disabilities and in that age group would know how to teach through play and teach in small chunks. For example, when my 8 year old was getting reading tutoring, they would play a game and before each turn had to identify the sound of a letter or blend or whatever they were working on. If your tutor is complaining about your 6 year old's focus, she doesn't have the necessary skills to deal with it. And that's leaving aside her views on your child's video watching, which is none of your business. My child is now 13, and we've gone through many tutors and therapists. I've gotten better and replacing the ones who don't work for us. It's a skill. [/quote]
