This study was conducted to examine parents’ perceptions regarding the influence of mathematics tutoring on their children’s academic performance. The research was motivated by the common perception that mathematics is a challenging subject, leading many students to face difficulties in understanding concepts and solving mathematical problems. As a result, parents often enroll their children in mathematics tutoring programs to enhance their academic achievement. This study applied a descriptive qualitative method. The participants were eight parents whose children participated in mathematics tutoring. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman framework, including data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicated that mathematics tutoring contributed positively to students’ academic achievement. Prior to attending tutoring sessions, many students struggled with understanding mathematical concepts, demonstrated low self-confidence, and achieved unsatisfactory academic results. Following their participation in tutoring programs, students showed improvements in mathematics achievement, learning motivation, self-confidence, and study habits. Although some challenges were encountered, such as fatigue, financial costs, and scheduling conflicts, parents generally believed that the benefits outweighed these difficulties. Therefore, mathematics tutoring can be considered an effective supplementary educational support that helps improve students’ academic performance.
