[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect for many families tutoring is a form of social-emotional support. The parents are well-educated, but they can’t talk to their kids without stress and conflict. The kids are smart enough, but they lack the social skills to approach teachers or form study groups. Tutors avoid all those problems. [/quote]

True but the tutor doesn’t solve the real issue: learn to self advocate and talk to teachers. It is a necessary life skill. [/quote]

Teachers do not have the time to offer free tutoring. Study groups aren’t useful if you don’t have helpful available peers.[/quote]

all teachers at local high schools have to have at least one day a week they come in a little early or are available in lunch or stay after, for walkin hours. they encourage students to meet with them and ask for help! [/quote]

Not in public school. I work contracted hours and have a second job after school. I do not stay after to work for free and neither do most other teachers. I'd love to be paid for office hours and be available 1-2 days per week after school but that's not going to happen.[/quote]
