For primary school pupils, support sites can provide a one-off solution, and require the presence of an adult to supervise.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Similarly, online exercise sites, educational forums and blogs don&#8217;t allow you to build up an ongoing relationship with your students.  <\/p>\n\n<p>If your child is having difficulty in a particular subject, opt instead for a paid subscription that provides regular help and assessments to monitor progress.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Ideally, the follow-up should be personalized, like coaching, to ensure that your child really works.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first question to answer is: Above all, it is important to understand Today, many websites offer online tutoring services.
