As the school year is winding down and summer is approaching, some of you might be thinking that your little one can benefit from a bit of focused, academic instruction during the school break. Your child doesn't necessarily need to be performing "below level" to reap the benefits of having a tutor. Tutoring offers a unique and individualized learning experience, catered to the exact strengths and needs of your child. All kiddos are stronger in some areas than others, and I believe in the importance of building on those strong abilities while progressing other skills that might be more challenging. For the past 10 years I have been presented with 20+ little faces each fall, all with such a diverse range of academic levels. This range of abilities, within one room, along with the grade level curriculum presented to me by administration, all resulted in a bit of a performing act each and everyday to ensure all students were engaged in experiences that were appropriate yet challenging enough to result in social, emotional and academic growth. The consequence of this is TONS of planning time, creating resources for a variety of grade levels, and constant progress monitoring to see what kids have mastered and what their next steps are. Though many educators agree this can be tough to balance all school year, it is absolutely essential in your child's full potential success!
This summer, my schedule is flexible and I am excited to offer one-on-one instruction in Reading, Writing and Math for kids ages 4-10. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you feel your little one can benefit from summer tutoring! I can be reached at booksandchalk@gmail.com or at 585-410-1830.
