Advocacy. At Tutorials for Excellence®, Mrs Levin attends meetings with parents and helps them solve problems with the teachers and staff. She initiates telephone consultations to work with the teachers to develop a different approach in order to meet the individual needs of her students. She attends Admit Review Dismissal (ARD) meetings with the parents of her special needs students. She works with teachers, principals, parents, and other specialized professionals to plan each new school year and she ensures that all rules are being followed for the current year.

Individual Instruction. We at Tutorials for Excellence® feel very strongly that tutoring “one-on-one”, the individual approach, is the most effective method. The student receives the maximum benefit from the tutor’s efforts. We do not favor group instruction, which is a very prevalent model used today, because the tutor’s attention is shared with the rest of the group and no individual student receives adequate instruction.

Remedial Instruction. Very special strategies and techniques are used for these students. “Hands on” activities, such as visualization, kinetic programs and games help the student understand the material in a much more effective way. We take the time to discover the best way to communicate with each student and we tailor our program to suit those needs.

Special Needs. We provide individual assessment for each special needs student. Tutorials for Excellence® then designs a program tailored to meet those needs. Children with special needs are remarkable people capable of achieving great success and we welcome the opportunity to teach them. We address dyslexia, disgraphia, auditory processing memory (short and long term), ADD & ADHD, organizational skills, test anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Accelerated Performance. College entrance requirements are extremely demanding in today’s world. At Tutorials for Excellence® we provide an opportunity for your student to improve his academic potential.
