Four Ways Tutoring for Accelerated Learners Can Be Beneficial:

Tutoring accelerated learners might seem like an oxymoron. It may seem unnecessary for students doing well in math or reading to need a tutor. However, there are many reasons why it is beneficial for their entire educational experience.

1. Tutoring accelerated learners allows them to have personalized lesson plans.

Imagine how frustrating it must be to sit in a classroom where you are asked to listen to a lesson or do an assignment you already know how to do. Accelerated learners frequently get bored and lose interest in the school subjects in which they excel the most. 
By tutoring accelerated learners, they can work at their own pace by doing lessons that are geared specifically to their level of learning. Personal tutoring sessions will help develop their skills and love for the subject where they excel (instead of causing them to hate it due to boredom).

2. Tutoring accelerated learners helps them reach their full potential.

Some students do not need to work hard to master a particular subject. This situation can also affect the amount of effort they put into learning other school subjects. Tutoring accelerated learners in their strong subjects can help them develop their skills and feel a sense of satisfaction instead of giving up on a subject because it does not challenge them enough. Accelerated learners can reach their full potential once a tutor provides an appropriate level of instruction that helps them develop or expand their skills.

3. Tutoring gifted students helps them become active learners.

Accelerated learners that have been in situations where learning new things is easy might never have a chance to develop useful learning skills. The early school years might be easy for accelerated learners. However, their ability to do well by sitting passively in class could pose a problem once they take up secondary and university courses that require them to know how to learn more challenging material. This is true for many students in elementary schools.
Tutoring is one way for accelerated learners to become proficient in handling more difficult subjects outside the classroom. Additionally, it helps them develop study skills that can be beneficial as they pursue higher education.

4. Tutoring accelerated learners benefits the rest of the classroom.

Some accelerated learners struggle with behavioral issues at school because some subjects are not challenging. Being bored in class might cause them to become a know-it-all or talk with their friends during lessons. Acting out affects the accelerated student and distracts the rest of the class.
Arranging a tutor for accelerated learners provides them with individual assignments on which to work, possibly during class time. (This arrangement would have to be discussed first with the classroom teacher.)

Choose a Private Tutor for Your Gifted Child

The stigma around tutoring is that it is only for students who need help with a subject with which they struggle. However, there are many reasons why tutoring gifted students can be beneficial. Finding a private tutor for an accelerated learner struggling in school can make a huge impact.
