Here at Academic Coaching and Tutoring, we take a unique approach to helping your child. Our tutoring model is based on the science of learning. Every tutoring session is approached with the individual needs of each and every student in mind.
The approach we take towards tutoring children is unique. We want to help fill in learning gaps, but we also prepare your child for future learning. Over time and experience, we have seen that children become anxious when they struggle with a topic. If they go into their next course with anxiety, that will leave them with additional gaps. Instead, our tutors help to fill in their current gaps and prevent future ones. We accomplish this by devoting a portion of every tutoring session to their current class content, but also providing time to preview upcoming content. We have found that previewing future topics gives the students we work with an edge.
We don’t stop there. Addressing misunderstandings with classroom content is only one piece of the puzzle. Many students also need help with the organizational side of learning. Our sessions also use academic coaching to ensure your child develops a more organized approach to their learning and schoolwork. For example, our academic coaches could help your child with how to take notes, create a color coding system to organize their locker, or develop a pacing schedule for an independent project.
Learning gaps can be minor, relating to a specific skill or significant as a result of gaps that are not addressed over time.
