The qualities that provide your child with the best opportunity to grow.
Level of Academic Progress
Every child learns at a different rate. At
SCORE!, our
Personal Academic Tutoring program produces the fastest results for the typical student. On average, improvement is 1.5 grade levels in 45 hours of instruction.
Quality of Instruction
SCORE! Tutors are a special group of people. To be a tutor they are required to complete our extensive initial training program, as well as, participate in ongoing training sessions and seminars that keep their knowledge current, ensuring your child has access to qualified instruction. And while education qualities are important, we also select individuals that demonstrate an ability to relate to kids and provide the motivation to love learning.
Method of Instruction
We begin every program with an
academic assessment that provides us with a direction to create a customized learning plan.
SCORE! tutors then employ our proven
instructional methods to help kids excel, meet or exceed their learning goals. We help keep kids focused on academic progress with a proven motivational goal-setting and reward system that is designed to produce results and promote self confidence.
Personal Attention
SCORE! Tutors are ready for your child the minute they walk in the door with a history of what your child has worked on in previous sessions including concepts mastered and those that need additional work. Each tutoring session includes an
individualized lesson plan that includes specific and/or highest priority needs for your child. In the learning sessions there are never more than 3 students per tutor in our Personal Academic Tutoring program or 7 students per instructor in our Advantage Program. Regardless of the program, it is our priority to ensure your child receives the personal attention he or she needs to succeed.
