Gr 6 Math Advanced Group Tutoring (Pre-learning Gr7-9)
Description
Grade 6 is an important year to prepare for Junior High. In this group tutoring session (with a max of 5 students), I will be keeping them ahead in Grade 6 and more importantly giving them a boost by introducing and teaching Junior High concepts. Your child is capable of so much. Allow them to strengthen their mind and problem solving abilities. Being in a tutoring group is beneficial:
Students gain insight into the approaches and methods used by their peers (teaching confidence and leadership)
Allows quiet students to finally have a chance to ask questions
Friendships can form and students find tutoring more enjoyable
Students may be inspired by other students (This seems to be more the case with children who like to strive to be ahead. They like the challenge of their peers.)
Cost effective (compared to one-on-one)
This program is totally interactive, and although online, has actually improved my tutoring than when we were in person. It allows your child and I to share our screens with each other, write on each other's screens, use a whiteboard, and see each other through webcams(which is beneficial, as if I sit beside them in person, I can’t see their facial expressions - confused - not paying attention - etc) . I also use an abundance of personal resources (including paid websites) and textbooks. I utilize websites and numerous games to motivate and reinforce lessons. Each group tutoring session will be unique since it will be tailored to the individual needs of the student group and the tutor's approach to instruction.
The key difference in my program compared to others is my focus on confidence. Research has said the number one predictor of academic performance is CONFIDENCE. That is the key. With confidence they will succeed. I had added a portion of my tutoring that allows the child to login 10 minutes ahead (not using tutoring time) to get them in the mindset of success. By making this a habit I have seen exponential growth in my students.

“Kelly provides her students with engaging activities, magical worlds and fun games that enhance their learning and make it FUN. My three kids have all benefited from her one-on-one dedicated tutoring. Without her help our kids with FASD would be compounded, with her they build confidence and skills for the challenges they face everyday.” -Parent
“Kelly had the ability to quickly and accurately determine our son’s difficulties and this allowed her to set up an individually tailored program and work through the difficulties one at a time until our son was ready to move to the next level. Kelly’s patience, encouragement and understanding has greatly helped our son gain confidence in his own personal ability.” -Parent
