Back to school means new teachers, friends, football games, and most importantly, homework. While many students look forward to the start of a new school year, many others may suffer anxiety or dread the return back to class. If students feel well prepared for the new school year, their in-class performance and grades will reflect that confidence.
"Back to school time can be a very stressful period to many students because they may have suffered summer brain drain and feel inferior to their fellow pupils," said Frank Milner, CEO of the Tutor Doctor. "Our goal is to help students feel comfortable during the transition into a new school year and feel confident about the school work they produce."
The professional tutors from your local Tutor Doctor are available year-round. Tutor Doctor's network of professional tutors can work with students during their summer break to help give them a head start prior to the upcoming school year.
Tutoring is a great option for children who feel that they may fall behind early on in the school year or who also may be looking to get ahead. One of the best ways for students to succeed in the transition back to school is by practicing these simple tips |
- New School? No Problem Make sure your children are familiar with their new learning environment. Most schools usually offer tours for first-time students; if not, call your school and see if you can set-up a time for a tour. Once your child is familiar with his/her new school, it will help minimize the first day jitters.
- Organization Help your child keep her school items organized. Organizational habits can significantly reduce anxiety over lost assignments and missing items. It may help to keep a large wall calendar with all important school dates, assignments, birthdays and extra-curricular activities.
- Develop good study habits Ensure that your child has a set time each evening for homework and that their workspace is quiet and free from interruptions. Also note if your student has difficulty with a certain subject area and offer to help them.
- Homework Helper Have your child tackle the hardest (and most disliked) assignment first. Getting that one done will make your student really accomplished something and he or she will sail through the remaining work.
- Journaling Encourage your child to keep a daily journal. This will help establish a regular writing routine, while also helping your child release any anxiety or worries they may be experiencing.
"Hopefully students have beat the summer brain drain and feel confident heading back to class," said Milner "If they are feeling the slightest bit anxious, these tips should really help get them organized and help them feel more comfortable during the transition into the new school year."
