What’s the secret to starting the school year on the right foot? It’s actually seeking out support before you think you need it.

It’s summertime! The sun is shining, the temperature is climbing, school is out, and kids are off to all their different activities and adventures. Here at Tutor Corps, we completely understand and celebrate taking a well-deserved break from school. The summer break can be a time to explore new and existing interests, do some traveling, and enjoy spending time with family and friends. 

But what about when the new school year starts? Remember back to those early days of each school year… Was it hard to get back into the swing of things? To remember what the expectations were? To remember what exactly it was that you had learned the year before? It can take a few weeks to settle back into the school year routine. And, as we all know, every day and week is precious when it comes to learning. 

There is some good news! There is something you can do if you’re worried about your child starting the school year off on the right foot. Whether it’s building on skills and knowledge with some enrichment tutoring, strengthening executive functioning skills, or previewing the upcoming year’s curriculum, our 1:1 tutoring model will help your child to prepare for what lies ahead. Our flexible summer courses allow our tutors to evaluate your child’s strengths and areas of improvement to provide the most beneficial course for them. 

But how to get a child to buy in to even more time spent on academics, especially over the summer? That’s where our incredible tutors really shine! Our tutors will take some time to get to know their students, what their likes are and where their passions lie. And because our tutoring model is completely 1:1, the sessions and course can be completely customized. They will integrate your child’s interests into sessions, regardless of subject. 

Continuing with learning, even over the summer break, can help make the transition back into the school year easier.  What’s even better is that learning can be fun - in the summertime and throughout the school year.
