One-on-One Tutoring
In our One-on-One Tutoring (K-12) program your child receives tutoring that targets math skills that need support or enrichment activities to enhance math strengths. Additionally, one-on-one tutoring improves attitude towards mathematics. Under excellent tutelage, students learn to break down material into discrete components, study systematically, manage their time, and develop the capacity for sound reasoning. Tutoring provides concrete opportunities to instill academic common sense: practice extensively, reread carefully, revise written material and study in advance. Most importantly, tutored students often learn to derive pleasure from studying per se. As they face and meet exacting standards, they become more intellectually sure-footed and their confidence grows. Studies show that regular, high-quality one-on-one tutoring may be the most effective after-school activity for improving academic achievement. One-on-one tutoring from well-trained staff allows after-school programs to target students’ individual strengths, weaknesses, and interests by providing direct, diagnostic mathematics instruction and mentoring. This type of tutoring is most effective when tied to the school day, allowing children to practice and reinforce what they are learning in the classroom
