		<description><![CDATA[Often times, parents will ask me "how many hours of tutoring will we need?" My answer is always the same, that there are many factors involved in effective tutoring.

		<description><![CDATA[There are several signs that will indicate to parents that their child needs a tutor, says Edward Gordon, a tutoring consultant for the federal and state governments and author of "Tutor Quest."
