tutoring

Individual tutoring sessions for children who require 1:1 attention. Many children benefit from individual private tutoring sessions.

The  program is taught with one student and one teacher interacting in real-time so your child gets the most out of their class sessions and interactions with their teachers.

Our most effective sessions are personalized to meet an individual student’s needs.

• Student productivity and growth increase when the tutor can identify the missing or incomplete skills that are holding a student back and focus remediation and acceleration on those specific skills. 
• Leverage data from informal and formal assessments to help identify and target specific skill needs for particular students. 

Our personalized sessions not focus exclusively on remediation, but also on acceleration.

• While students may need remediation on missing foundational skills, they will also need support in learning how to apply those skills to new, grade-level concepts to accelerate their learning going forward. We will maintain a balance between the two with each student.

 Our tutors are teachers who have earned a bachelor’s degree or higher and are passionate about the subjects they teach. Our one-to-one approach and emphasis on positive relationships allow our teachers to have a mentoring role in their students’ lives, resulting in not only academic, but social and emotional growth as well. 

Our small group tutoring consist of no more than 5 students. We specialize in assisting children in elementary school to improve their overall academic performance in the areas of reading and math. 

• We  focus on addressing students’ underlying needs, not keeping pace with the classroom work. However, the curriculum and materials that we use align with the relevant standards, and we sequence sessions to support the work students do in their classrooms. 
• Every tutoring session will have a clear, specific learning goal. Both the tutor and the student will be able to articulate the goal at every point in the session, and both should be able to evaluate whether they have reached it by the end.

 Benefits of blended learning

• Blended learning offers opportunities for students to practice independently through tailored activities that capitalize on different learning modalities and further individualize instruction.
• When information about how a student is performing online is provided to tutors on a timely basis and in an actionable format, blended learning provides a wealth of knowledge and granular data to tutors about student learning that can help tutors explicitly target their live instruction. 
• The blended learning program can reduce the frequency of tutor-student interaction while maintaining rigor, allowing the same number of tutors to serve more students. 
• Research has shown that supplementing live instruction with effective blended learning software can be as effective as traditional tutoring.
