They insisted that their daughter stay after school three days a week to do extra tutoring with me even though she was already at the top of the class and did not need the extra help. they would also email me several times during the day wanting updates on how their daughter was doing. This was eating up huge portions of my time that I needed to spend with other students who need extra help. What would be a good way to deal with this situation. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would implement the use of the class dojo application. The parents can utilize this app to keep up to date with the student's activities throughout the day. The teacher can award points to the student for staying on task or take away points for not being on task. The teacher should also show the student's test results/ assignments and explain how well she is doing. Like another comment mentioned it would not be a bad idea to set up certain times a day to give updates to the parents.
