Be direct. Tell your young bass player that he or she sounds out of tune. In a non-threatening, respectful, non-embarassing way, ask those young bass players--privately--how you can help. As a grade schooler, I needed to learn and practice fingerings for those weird key signatures--anything other than one, two, or three flats. :-)

How to improve? I think that ensemble work is great training, although it does take a bad director's time.
