Technology for kids is everywhere. Lap tops, tablets, smart phones, social media apps - even the classroom! Digital learning is as much a part of a student's educational experience today as carrying a backpack. But before you start worrying that your son or daughter will forget how to interact with human beings in light of all of this technology, read what this blog from Edweek.org has to say about the impact on student learning: "The shift from print to digital is a profound transition in how human beings learn, it is more significant than the development of the printing press and its benefits are spreading much more quickly. Like the printing press six centuries ago, this transition is transforming formal education and spreading informal learning opportunities." From creating higher levels of engagement to greater opportunities for individualized and personalized learning, the benefits to digital learning are numerous. Savvy teachers and tutors are using technology to help foster a love for learning in their students. They are speaking the same language as their students, and it is paying dividends! So it should come as no surprise that online tutoring has also gained popularity over the last few years. At Club Z!, for example, online tutoring students can benefit from self-guided practice, quizzes and games designed to reinforce challenging concepts, videos that demonstrate difficult problem-solving techniques, and real-time access to tutors who can help with last minute prep work for things like an upcoming test or project. This has proven particularly effective for students who are studying for college entrance exams like the SAT and ACT. If your student is in need of online tutoring, call Club Z! today at 800-434-2582 to learn more about our available programs.

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.
