All the teachers
are carefully trained in our philosophy. Our curriculum
specialist has a Masters Degree from Harvard in curriculum
development.
Why come to us over the
competition in Salisbury?
Sylvan, for example,charges
the same prices for one teacher tutoring 2 - 4 students
at the same time. We offer one-on-one undivided attention
for approximately the same price. Our competition charges
a much higher rate for the same type testing.
Why is one-on-one the right
ratio for your child?
We have individual, especially
designed rooms whereas Sylvan offers one large room with
many tables. If you prefer fewer distractions for your
child, we are the school for you. Also, your child does
not have to compete for individual attention.
What do we offer that "back
yard" tutors do not?
We offer regular assessment
and evaluation of your child's progress. This way we can
all see where we are gaining and where we are not. Adjustments
can be made anytime, since we are one-on-one. If a "back
yard" tutor has to be out, your child's program will
suffer from a lack of consistency. We offer consistency.
What do we offer that you
cannot get from free tutoring at your child's school?
Our curriculum specialist
has a Master's Degree from Harvard in Curriculum Development.
Our tutoring programs are powerful and carefully designed.
We set goals and achieve measurable gains.
What should I bring to
the initial free consultation?
Bring copies of any school
records you have (EOG or other Standardized tests, report
cards, samples of work, etc.). Bring a method of payment
for the testing fee of $200.00: credit card, check or
cash. Also, bring your family schedule, because we will
need your child for one hour and then they need to have
a plan to leave (or wait quietly for one hour while we
still meet). We encourage you to invite anyone that helps
you raise your child to the two hour meeting. Sometimes
we have mom and dad. Sometimes it is mom and grandmother.
Sometimes it is mom, ex-husband and an aunt. You decide
who needs to be involved, and who will support your child's
new game plan for success.
