It is hard to believe that school will be back in session in less than a month. Now is the time to make plans for tutoring services for the new school year because tutors still have slots available. For the best selection call your tutor or tutor service today.
If you aren’t sure what type of tutoring services your child will benefit from in the upcoming school year then contact your local Sylvan or other tutoring center for a free assessment. These assessments can be used to identify problem areas as well as areas of strength. Since you aren’t obligated to sign up for tutoring services after receiving the assessment, they can be a very valuable freebie.
In addition to free assessments, the end of the summer is a great time to set learning goals and objective. Goal setting sessions can be done at home, with the help of a tutor or with the help of your child’s IEP team. These goals need to identify both areas that your child wants to improve in and areas that they are just interesting in exploring. For example, a learning goal list may include things like: improve understanding of fractions, keep up with homework assignments and learn how to make slime using common household chemicals.
Education is an ongoing process that doesn’t stop when you graduate from high school or college. Like school kids, adults can also benefit from the help of a tutor. The end of the summer is a great time to talk with a tutor about picking up new professional skills, because many businesses experience a slow period during the month of August and you will have time to dedicate to learning something new.
