TUTORING
If your high school student is stressed with their demanding course load or needs help getting back on top of a challenging subject, give us a call.
There are many benefits tutoring can provide. The first, and likely the one you are looking for, is better grades. But there are many other gains to be made by regular use of a tutor. Here are a few:
1. Problem-solving behavior
By pairing your student with a tutor from ACS, you are showing them that when a problem is identified, such as difficulty in a particular subject, that there are actions you can take and resources you have available to help. The tutor will work with your son or daughter to further describe their challenges, and then work to strategize ways to overcome them.
2. Confidence booster
Feeling less frustrated in class and able to follow along can make your student feel in control. This will increase their confidence and will naturally motivate them. This can carry over to other areas in school (and life) as well!
3. Improved Teacher Relationship
Oftentimes students feel like a teacher “does not like them”. It is much more likely that they teacher feels a disconnect or does not do a good job at reaching out to your son or daughter. By engaging in tutoring, it demonstrates extra effort in the subject. This can go a long way with either opening up a dialogue or revealing other potential hurdles. Often once a student lets the teacher know they are working with a tutor, the student feels the relationship becomes much more positive.

” The program has geared me up for success not only in the classroom but also in life. Having a dedicated plan day in and day out has helped me achieve so much. With the help and guidance from ACS, I was able to graduate college (which I never thought could happen) and have helped me land my dream job right out of college! Thank you ACS!! “
