School reinforcement, the remedy against bad grades
At the beginning of the course, some parents are afraid of academic failure in school and consider whether their children will need a tutoring through private classes before they are given a newsletter bad grades or failures.
Many parents prefer to remedy time with school reinforcement classes. The reinforcement and the reeducation of the school will be necessary depending on the performance and adaptation that they have in their schools.
In many cases, due to lack of time, these classes of tutoring they replace the extracurricular classics.

Recommendations for school reinforcement
So that the effort made with the school reinforcement classes has its deserved reward in good results, it is essential to follow these guidelines:
1. Talk with the tutor of the school to assess if it needs a reinforcement and in this case in which subjects.
2. Raise the reinforcement so that our children do not take it as punishment for not having better grades. We must avoid being discouraged and that does not affect their self-esteem or compare with other classmates who get higher grades than them.
3. Assess if it is better to have a private teacher to move or not to our home. In this case we must know if you have the training and pedagogical resources necessary to provide reinforcement.
As a commentary and personal experience, many students prefer teachers to be young.
4. If the student goes to a study center or academy to group classes, these groups should be reduced. Group classes can be beneficial when our children are a bit introverted and difficult to communicate. Attending group classes will help them to interact with other classmates who may also have difficulties in the same subjects.
5. The experts also recommend the reinforcement classes from the second or third cycle of Primary, but if the student has learning problems, attention deficit, dyslexia, etc. it is important to start reinforcement or / and reeducation with professionals from the first years of primary school.
In Compulsory Secondary Education (ESO) the profile of the student changes. In these studies, reinforcement classes are more recommendable, as well as attending a study center as with a private teacher, since this is when students begin to have difficulties to follow some subjects such as languages, mathematics, etc.
When the school year begins in the reinforcement centers or academies, more students attend Primary than Secondary, but at the end of the first trimester and some students receive grades with poor results, then the students at the end of Primary and Secondary increase. They need a reinforcement to improve their academic performance in the coming quarters of the course.
