Homework Trouble

www.wizkidtutor.com

Does your child complain when they have to read?  Do they put excuses so they don’t read?  Do you spend hours trying to get them to sit down and just read?  Doesn't it concern you as to why? 

Children often times do not know how to express their troubles.  They might not know how to explain themselves or how to explain it to you as a parent that there is a problem.  The explanations come in their actions.  The tantrums to do homework, the excuses they put such as they are hungry or want to take a shower or need something else before they can start their reading homework or any other homework for that matter.

There could be several factors as to why children do not like to read.  A reason could be that when they read they do not understand what they are reading.   Another reason could be they cannot pronounce or decode words correctly hence interfering with their reading comprehension.  Another reason could be their vocabulary might not be as extensive as it should be to understand definitions of words. There might be even more reason as to why children do not like to read.  These reasons can be anchored to meet children's needs.

Providing children with tools and the specialized attention they require can help them with reading comprehension, correct pronunciation, and extending their vocabulary.  Taking action as soon as problems arise can ease the stress to both child and parent.  Children who have difficulty with reading should get the help they need soon before they go further up in grades.  Parents can help them at home by reading something the child is interested in.  Listen to their reading and highlight any words they cannot pronounce or define.  This is a good start to helping them react to reading in a more positive fun manner.  All else can be left to Wiz Kid Tutor, we are here to help you and your child have a wonderful educational experience.  We make your job easier.
