Simply ask her to give you some advice and help because you've noticed he's struggling with x,y and z.

Nobody could take being asked for their expert opinion as criticism.

just ask if there is anything you could be doing at home with him to help or if there is anything she has found that works well with him in school that you could continue at home.
[I'm sure she wouldn't take offence, I know I always appreciate supportive parents]
