Evidence-based approach
Evidence-based approach
It is crucial to understand where students are to help them go where they want and need to go next. I observe and assess my student's progress to analyze how they learn and what motivates them. I employ a strength-based model that brings just the right amount of challenge to grow students' skills and expand their repertoire of learning strategies.
Research-based high-impact tutoring model
Research-based high-impact tutoring model
My approach is grounded in research that shows effective tutoring accelerates student growth equivalent to 3-15 months of additional learning.
I adhere to the major components of high-impact tutoring, including:
Intensive: regularly scheduled tutoring sessions
Relationship-based: all sessions with the same tutor
Individualized: one-on-one, private sessions
Aligned: enhances and connected to school curriculum
Although there is ample evidence of positive impacts for all students, the most powerful effects have been measured for mathematics at grades 3-12 and for disadvantaged students, which matches my focus and mission.
