Along with Teaching, Developing Winning Attitudes

At Lear Educational Center we focus on what a student can achieve rather than what he is not accomplishing.  We emphasize the student’s strengths and the student’s potential as we acknowledge and accommodate for learning differences.  We assess the student’s foundational knowledge and together we move toward the student’s scholastic progress in the appropriate curriculum.  Each student receives individualized, personalized, one-to-one tutoring. 

We are all different and success for each of us is different as well.  Sometimes when we compare ourselves to others, we may become discouraged from even trying.  Sometimes we may feel overwhelmed, believe we are too far behind to ever catch up, let alone move ahead.  We can become frustrated, disappointed in ourselves, depressed.  

When feelings of failure become a pattern, we either avoid the circumstances that bring them on or we struggle along in those circumstances while the sadness may creep into many more areas of our lives.  Or we can follow a new path, developing a new attitude of confidence and self-esteem through accomplishments toward maximizing our personal potentials, one realistically attainable step at a time. This encourages us to like ourselves, to ratchet up our goals and our standards for ourselves.  We learn that winning doesn’t take place only through competition with others.  Winning is gaining the satisfaction of achievement from doing our best in our own appropriate, ever-expanding arenas.  

At Lear Educational Center we interface with schools, working with the curriculum appropriate for each student to bring him up to grade level and to advance.   

We accommodate and compensate for learning differences, helping students meet IEP and remediation goals. We also teach study skills, learning strategies and techniques that help students meet the classroom challenges of today and those of tomorrow.
