Tutoring
is it a good investment into your child's
future?
Tutoring
the best way to prepare for college.
With
the competition in the job market getting more fierce each year, it
is time to take a closer look at your child’s primary
education(K-12). Then ask yourself where exactly does your
child fit when it comes to today’s standards on education, learning
& intelligence? The question itself only leads to one seemingly
even more important, what is the true “state” of my child’s
intelligence? How smart is my kid? Really!
When
it comes to your child’s primary education you have to ask yourself
some key questions;
1. Is
my child preparing for college or simply trying to finish High
School?
2. Is
my child gifted?
3. Does
my child have a learning disorder?
4. Is
my child successfully passing their classes or just getting by?
The questions should be answered as soon as possible to properly address the issue, if there is one? Although the questions may seem complex, the best way to address them..is by Tutoring. Since Tutoring uniquely places your child in a one-on-one type environment where their true skills and talents can be recognized as (well as any shortcomings).
Question #1
“Is
my child preparing for college or simply trying to finish high
school?”
This questions sits at the top for a reason. Each day more and more
statistics prove just how important college is when it comes to
employment/jobs/careers. In all the research performed on the subject
the 3 biggest factors always seem to be;
1. Salary
2. Career Longevity
3. Certification
Salary – A Big Difference
Current
statistics from several sources (see references) show employees with
college degrees earn almost twice as much ($1,227.00) per month than
employees with high school degrees ($678.00).
Career
Longevity – Staying Employed
When
it comes to maintaining employment, holding a job college graduates
again hold the edge significantly. Statistics show 5 years after
graduation college an amazing
82.6% are still employed. While only 67.6% of High School Grads are
still employed 5 years after graduation.
Certification
– The Skills To Do The Job
Long
before any major corporation hires an employee and pay him hundreds
of thousands of dollars. They need to know if they’re qualified
properly certified “to do the job”! Are
you qualified to operate their multi-dollar equipment? A college
degree shows an employee is in fact certified to perform the task at
hand. Which in many ways
makes a college degree an investment, an investment into a successful
career a successful future.
Could
a Tutor make a difference in your child’s education possibly in
their future? As a parent now is the time to take a closer look at
your child’s “state of education” find how exactly
your child is doing in school.
More importantly find areas where improvement may be needed. Enlist
the help of a tutor only if necessary.
Give
your child a fair chance in the 21st
Century in the ultra-competitive career field(s) that await them.
