I am a tutor, but I teach the fourth grade. Children are usually interested in the experiences of the elderly. As long as you put Chinese into it, he will be interested, but this is usually not easy and sometimes too far-fetched. You can also find something interesting to tell him, stop when he is fully engaged, and let him do some homework or read a certain amount of books in exchange for the rest of the story. You should never finish the story just because he is begging, not once. When the precedent is set, there will be endless troubles ~ ~ ~ When his grades improve, you can give appropriate rewards, such as little boys, mecha toys, ice cream and so on. Don't be too expensive, it's hard to make money as a tutor ~ ~ The above is my experience, and I hope I can help you.
