Scholastic Soaring for Your Student this Summer

Students forget an average of two months’ worth of learning during the summer vacation unless they have regular reviews of their knowledge and skills.  This is called ‘summer slide’.  Since the losses are cumulative, by the end of sixth grade, some students will be about two years behind their peers.  This is especially the case with a slide back in reading because solid reading skills are required to succeed in all subjects.   

When they return to school in the fall, students are presented with new material, making the summer loss even more difficult to regain. Not only have students forgotten knowledge and skills, they often have forgotten how to study as well.  Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be that way.  With the Lear Advantage of Academic Coaching and Scholastic Tutoring, your student can soar instead of slide!     

• The Lear Advantage of one-to-one, systematized, intensive instruction, focuses on the individual student, motivating him to maximize his potential.  

• At Lear Educational Center we assess and reinforce foundational knowledge, filling in any portions of a curriculum that the student might have missed or might have misunderstood. New material is presented step-by-step with the student demonstrating his understanding of the new material, having his questions answered and his new knowledge reviewed.  Mastery is achieved before progressing to the next step.  

• At Lear Educational Center we interface with schools, working with the curriculum appropriate for each student. We specialize in teaching students with learning differences, helping them further develop and expand upon their individual strengths, as well as to meet IEP and remediation goals.  

• At Lear Educational Center we provide one-to-one, individualized Academic Coaching and Scholastic Tutoring on all levels, primary through college, for most subjects and for most standardized tests.  Study strategies, learning and executive function skills also are taught so that our students can best meet the classroom challenges of today as well as those of tomorrow.  

Our tutoring services are available on campus, online, or at our facility.
