Building Confidence - Creating Success

 

 

   Our Goals 

 

We strive:

 

• to provide reliable, accountable, and individualized service to every client

 

• to encourage curiosity and enthusiasm for learning

 

• to teach learning skills at the same time as content knowledge

 

• to help students who need long-term support remain motivated and make

   ongoing and measurable academic gains  

 

• to "graduate" students out of tutoring and into confident, independent,  

   and successful academic work 

 

 

 

 

Our Philosophy

 

Our work with students is underscored by the following principles:

 

• Personalized programming is necessary to address students' unique learning

   needs and skill sets. 

 

• Appropriate challenges develop students’ skills.

 

• Meaningful progress can only take place when students feel confident and secure.

 

• Individual assessment is the foundation of remedial programming.

 

• Respectful and encouraging teachers help students gain confidence and believe 

   in themselves. 

 

• Certified teachers with expertise in their subject area are the best instructors

   for students in elementary and middle years, and for struggling learners.  

 

• Academic progress is strengthened through cooperative interaction among

   students' teachers, parents, and the Aldridge-Duff staff.
