Stepping Up: Prepare your child for the next grade level  in school.

The transition from one grade level to the next can be an exciting yet daunting experience for students. In the transition, our children tend to realize that their study habits need and upgrade. However, not all know how to upgrade their scholastic systems, and may find themselves falling behind in school for the first time. With a little effort and time, students can become academic winners!

Core Values

Reviewing class notes will help students retain more core learning concepts and increase their ability to access the information on tests.

All too oftengrade declines are not addressed early enough because the parent may feel it is a problem that will correct itself. It is generally better to address the problem early on, before the students' grades begin to spiral downward.

Starting the school year this way helps students meet the increase in studies. The plan should include additional study time, even if the childhas study halls during their school day; study hall sessions may not always be effectively utilized.

2.) Children benefit from reviewing the notes they take in each of their classes for at least 5 minutes a day.
1.) Preplan a study and homework time prior to the beginning of the school year.
4.) As soon as a student begins to slide academically, educational solutions should be applied to help the child overcome their academic obstacles.
SUPPORT
 

Tutors assess students, getting to know their particular area in need of assisstance. We supply the adequate time and space for effective learning.

TEAMWORK
 

Tutors and students work together to solve problems and provide solutions. Parents are encouraged to be involved with their child's learning process.

EDUCATION
 

Tutors are encouraged to go beyond homework and projects, teaching students more about the subject in which the students have sought assisstance.

Parents who check their child's grades online show their adolescent they care about education. Also, if there are grade drops or missing assignments, educational solutions can be applied before it becomes a scholastic issue.

3.) Parents and children benefit from checking grades online togetherseveral times a week.
5.) Make learning fun during homework and study time.

Students can create flash cards from their study material and make review time into a game show format, using the flash cards.

6.) Parents can help their teen develop an interest in learning by asking the student to share three concepts they learned in their classes each day.

This keeps parents involved and kids sharp!

7.) Early high school students who are planning to attend college need to be working on building their application resumes.

A teen may want to join an extracurricular club or sport, or perform a few hours of community outreach for service hours. These activities are good to include in the college application resume, and can help teens find hobbies they truly enjoy.

8.) Tests and quizzes become an important part of the high school academic experience, and teens should add more study preparation time to the system they used in middle school.

Early high school students benefit from studying for tests and quizzes several days before they are given. Waiting until the day before a test may not be the best option.

9.) Parents should try and comminicate with their teen's high school teachers several times a year.

Studies show, one reason teens drop out of school is a "lack of parent engagement." High school students who have parents that communicate with the school are less likely to drop out.

10.) Teens typically benefit from reviewing for tests and quizzes with a friend in their class.

Reviewing with one or more friends can add interest and fun to study and review time. When a student is asked to teach a core concept to another student they generally have an increase in their own understanding and better retain the core concept.

Those who can learn to enjoy learning and apply educational solutions when they face challenges will always be successful. Students who struggle in school can learn new methods to help them meet new curriculum expectations, restore their scholastic self-esteem, and make the most of their school years!

PROGRESS
 

Tutors monitor the students' performance, noting improvements and determining areas which need more attention. Parents are kept up-to-date with their child's development.

SUCCESS
 

Students develop healthy learning and studying habits, which will help develop confidence in the classroom.
