You know your child is capable of more in English...
Sometimes the problem isn't effort.
​
For some students, it can look like this:

they spend a long time on homework but grades don't improve
​
they write detailed answers but don't get the marks their effort deserves
​
they do​ well in other subjects, but English is often a disappointment
​​
their grades are inconsistent, they do well in one test, then under perform in the next
​
they want to improve but they don't really know how to
​
Many capable students plateau in English because no one has ever shown them how examiners actually award marks.
Once they learn how to clearly demonstrate what the examiner wants to see, grades begin to move.
