Many students find themselves night after night trying to complete homework assignments on concepts that don’t yet fully understand. This is especially true if the classroom instruction was poor, rushed, disrupted, or incomplete. In light of this, diligent students soldier-on to at least demonstrate an effort to complete the assignment. This creates a twofold problem. The student may be actually practicing doing the problems wrong. Worse yet, they will be missing the main benefit of homework which is to solidify the newly learned concept with practice.
Utilizing a math tutor to keep the student just ahead of the class is the key to turning homework into a beneficial and more rewarding experience for the student. Time spent on homework is less frustrating and becomes a meaningful practice and preparation for quizzes and tests. Self confidence soars together with the student's outlook on learning generally.
