There's loads of threads about tutors but I can't seem to find much about home tutoring. Everyone I speak to IRL is adamant that even the brightest child needs formal tutoring even if just for VR/NVR papers and exam practise and I'd be doing my child a disservice if we don't do it. I'm not particularly academic so whilst I can help set and follow a timetable, work through papers etc with ds, I don't feel confident enough to be his 'tutor' (plus work FT so limited opportunities in the week). Are there books that can guide you through all the things he needs to know? Any recommendations?
Ds is definitely grammar material - eldest dc at excellent non-selective state secondary so not a problem if dc2 doesn't go to grammar but feel he would excel in more academic environment plus his sport is played at grammar.
Any mumsnetters considering grammar school but not going down the private tutor route?
