A professional tutoring service must conduct lessons using techniques which help
students overcome their academic difficulties, master their course work and achieving
their educational goals in the shortest possible time. Here's how our teachers conduct
lessons:
Just
as a first visit to the doctor begins with a thorough examination to discover exactly
what's wrong with the patient, our teachers start the first lesson with a comprehensive
diagnostic test pinpoint the student's strengths and weaknesses.
Since
a student's educational problems almost always develop from gaps in topics and basic
concepts taught previously, the diagnostic test is designed to identify any deficiencies
standing in the student's way.
The
teacher spends the rest of the first lesson teaching topics not yet mastered by the
student, beginning with those which first caused trouble.
At
the end of the first lesson, the teacher advises the parents how many hours per week the
student should have lessons to overcome all difficulties and catch up as quickly as
possible.
This
estimate is based upon several factors, including the diagnostic test results, the
student's aptitude for learning as demonstrated during the second half of the lesson and
the number of weeks available to complete the course.
Rather
than focusing of the student's next school homework assignment or test, each lesson is
devoted to intensive teaching of definitions, basic concepts, methods and everything else
the student needs to understand and master the course.
At
each lesson (including the first), the teacher writes up extensive notes and assigns ample
homework so the student can practice newly taught topics and reinforce those taught during
previous lessons.
The
teacher spends the first part of each lesson checking and correcting the written homework
assigned at the previous lesson.
To
ensure maximum stability and consistency, the teacher attempts to schedule lessons to take
place on the same day and at the same time each week.
