Our approach to instruction

Rather than using an institutional approach to supplemental instruction, Tutors on Wheels employs a diagnostic/prescriptive method. The process begins with an administered assessment to pinpoint a child’s academic strengths and deficits.

Based on the assessment results, a customized learning program is formulated to address the student’s needs. All student assessment results, learning program designs, and tutoring session schedules are discussed in a formal parent conference prior to the student’s first tutoring session.

Our tutors also maintain a close relationship with their students’ classroom teachers through personal visits, IEP conferences, and online communication. The assessment-based customized learning programs enable our tutors to create personalized instructional approaches designed to enhance each student’s strengths and to remediate each learning deficit.
