1-on-1 Tutoring Can Help Your Child Break the "B" Barrier

For many children, an A grade in their chemistry or Algebra II course seems almost as elusive as a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. They work hard, complete all of the homework, study rigorously for exams and tests, but still have trouble earning higher than a B grade. Oftentimes, working one-on-one with a qualified tutor for just a few hours per week can help these hard working students earn the A they desperately seek.   What makes the difference? When students work with a tutor one-on-one, they benefit from individualized attention that cannot always be provided in a crowded classroom setting. This means that their questions can be answered fully, and they can spend as much or as little time on a concept as necessary to ensure retention.   And when the tutors are handpicked for each student based on personality and complementary traits, it ensures that a positive working relationship can be formed between tutor and student. This in turn leads to the student feeling more confident in a subject, and reduces anxiety for tests, quizzes and other assignments. All of which can be the difference between a good grade and a GREAT grade!   It’s a common misconception for parents that tutoring is only for struggling or overwhelmed students. Tutoring can actually offer remediation or enrichment, depending on each student’s needs. Club Z! knows how beneficial a one-on-one lesson can be in helping a student break past whatever barrier is holding him or her back in school – whether it’s earning an A in a difficult course, staying on top of homework assignments and projects, or earning a top score on an AP exam. If your child could benefit from one-on-one tutoring or test prep, call the experts at Club Z! today at 800-434-2582.

No matter how you look at it, college is an expensive proposition these days. Both public and private colleges and universities have had to raise fees and tuition as costs have increased. As a result, college student debt has skyrocketed and many students end up with loan payments years, sometimes even decades, after graduation. But with some careful planning and creative thinking, there are lots of other ways to help pay for college and avoid being stuck with big loan payments after graduation. One final but important step in the college application process is to include an application for financial aid.

As parents, and grandparents for that matter, we consider it to be a bit of a rite of passage to tell our children just how easy they have it compared to what we went through at their age. File this under the “when I was your age, I had to walk 2 miles to school each day, uphill both ways” category.

For any parent of a college-bound student, SAT and ACT test scores are no doubt at the center of most dinner table discussions. While no one will argue that test scores alone are the deciding factor in college admissions, and many colleges are moving toward a test-optional admissions policy, strong scores on the SAT and or ACT can definitely help a student’s chance of gaining admission to his/her college of choice.
