Your Child Starts Seeing Themselves as Someone Who Can Learn: Help for international school students in Tokyo.
In preschool, children often feel confident trying new things and believe they can do anything.
But as they move into elementary school, difficulties with reading, writing, math, tests, and homework can make them feel less confident about their ability to learn.
They start saying things like, “I'm not smart.” “I'm just not good at this.” “I'll never get it.”
As a parent, of course it's difficult to watch your child who is bright and capable start to doubt themselves.
You might have tried extra tutoring, extra help from your child's school, positive encouragement, but yet your child is still struggling.
It is hard to understand why your child is not improving.
For many parents, the hardest part is understanding why their child is struggling and what kind of support will actually help.
At More Than Just Tutoring Tokyo, I take a different approach to traditional tutoring.
With over 19 years of experience in international education, I look your child's strengths and challenges through assessments and observation. I work to understand why a child is struggling and what kind of support will help them learn with more confidence and independence.
Because giving a child more worksheets or explaining things in the same way again may not help if we have not first understood what is making learning difficult for your child in the first place.
If your child is bright and capable but continues to struggle despite tutoring and extra practice, let's talk.
