    What we help students resolve:

    Every student is required to study as part of his or her education, however none are given any formal instruction in school on how to study.  Memorization tricks and test taking strategies are not substitutes for real learning.  The ability to understand and apply information, make independent observations and form opinions about the subject matter, is the stuff of real life and is what makes one not only a successful student, but a life-long learner.

    Most students who come to us have gaps in their education. They may have passed the grade, but their knowledge and more importantly, their ability to apply, many subjects is lacking.

    The Applied Scholastics tutoring program is tailored for each student—addressing the subjects and areas they need assistance with and thereby helping them to build a solid foundation for success in life.

    What We Will Cover

    Tutoring is done online or in-person in one-on-one sessions which help each student to move through their program as quickly as their ability allows. Attention is focused on the areas of greater difficulty and always with 100% comprehension and demonstrated mastery before moving onto the next level.

    Math Tutoring

    Math is a language and understanding the words used in math is a vital component to being able to do math. Our approach ensures that the foundation of arithmetic is solid before moving onto more difficult materials. By doing so, the student is able to quickly and effectively identify and correct past difficulties which are the cause of their current math struggles.

    Reading Tutoring

    Literacy is a vital tool for success in life. The ability to read is one of the most important skills a person can have. Our research-based phonics program emphasizes comprehension, over memorization—helping to build vocabulary and the skills necessary to read, write and spell. Our phonics program helps students learn to read so they can then read to learn.

    Study Skills

    Learning should be fun. It’s only painful when a student hits the three barriers to study and doesn’t know what to do about them. These barriers can block a student’s ability and limit their potential and are enough to make anyone a slow learner. Once a student understands what these barriers are and how to handle them, their ability to learn is greatly increased.

    Assessment

    The Applied Scholastics Achievement Program (ASAP) utilizes proprietary assessment technology. This assessment can approximate the grade level for which a student demonstrates full proficiency in reading or math.  It is not a standardized test and its results are for the sole purpose of assisting a student to become fully proficient in reading or math at their current grade level.

    Individualized Learning Plan

    After the student has received their one-on-one Applied Scholastics Achievement Program (ASAP) assessment, a personalized plan is created to specifically pinpoint the exact difficulties the student is having in comprehension or is unable to apply the material they have previously learned. This plan will help the student repair their past education and build a stable foundation for their future.

    Student Success Program

    Through a series of four self-paced courses overseen by a trained Applied Scholastics Instructor, the Student Success Program—a comprehensive 40-hour program—gives students the independent study skills they need to be life-long learners who can understand and apply the information they are learning in school, no matter the subject, and so build a solid foundation for success in life.

    Testimonials

    What students, educators and parents have to say:

    Dylan B, Success

    “Learning How to Learn is an amazing course because you learn how to study properly. You learn that studying is not just getting more facts, it is understanding what you are learning. This course helps you to know and fix any barrier to study like a misunderstood word, a lack of mass, or a skipped gradient when you have one of them.”

    —Dylan B., Student
    Crystal B, Parent

    “Wow, as a parent of a 5 year old whose school just closed suddenly this course could not have come at a better time for me. It gave me so much instant relief and really calmed down any anxieties I had about this new home school journey we were on. The tips in the course were easy to follow and we have started to put a lot of them in place already.”

    —Crystal B, Parent, San Franciso, CA

    “Now that I know what to do and how to study properly I can’t wait to go back and relearn.  I can teach myself and my sisters.  This is the best, most fun course ever.  This doesn’t only apply to academics, but with real life.  I can do all the things I want to do.  I am very grateful for this course—I enjoyed every second of it!”
