| Cooperating with Tutors |  A cooperative relationship with a child’s tutor can rein in your stress and improve a child’s chances of academic success.
Before you plan your course of action, make an effort to reach out to his tutor.
• Depending on your schedule with the child, establish weekly, monthly, or quarterly meetings with his tutor to ensure lesson plans are aligned.
• Discuss both of your teaching styles and, when appropriate, try to incorporate the teacher’s techniques to maintain consistency.
• Determine the tutor’s long-term goals.
• Use the same materials, books, and other resources whenever possible.
• While most of the conversations can happen over the phone, you should meet in person whenever possible to build your relationship.
• E-mail is a great way to stay in touch, share lesson plans, communicate ideas, and match-up your schedules.
