    Why would any primary student need grinds?

    The question is how much a primary teacher charges for grinds or private lessons, not a debate on why any primary student need grinds

    I give primary grinds. 30 an hour.
    And as for primary chidlren neeeding grinds, a lot can be covered in one hour with a primary child and can be done in a fun way to boost their confidence. confidence in their learning is what matters

    I am a primary school teacher and charge €30 per hour. However, if there are more children in that time or a number of grinds per week I usually do a deal with the parent.

    I had to go to an eye specialist recently. In and out twice for about 5 minutes each time. I could have a lot of grinds for what I had to pay him!

    Grinds may give confidence to a child, provided that the person giving the grind is suitable.

    Because, if a school has a large number of children with difficulties, then only the very weakest may be taken for Learning Support/Resource. This means that a child who is still weak mightn't get the extra help they need due to the lack of resources, and it's going to get even worse with the educational cutbacks that are taking place.
