Your Child's Success Map

We understand the weight that is puts on your shoulders when your child is struggling in school or when they aren't being challenged enough. Nourishing Minds Tutoring can provide personalized attention and support that may not be available in a classroom setting. This can help children improve their understanding of academic material, build confidence, and develop study skills that will serve them well throughout their education. Additionally, tutoring can be particularly beneficial for children who are struggling in school or who have specific learning needs.

The Nourishing Minds Success Process

1. Assessment

In order to best serve your needs we conduct a comprehensive assessment. The assessment is critical in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of your son/daughter. Along with the assessment, a Parent Questionnaire and Student Questionnaire will be distributed in order to gain as much insight as possible into your child.

2. Personalized Plan

Upon completion of the assessment, your tutor analyzes the results and formulates a personalized learning plan, which will be completely tailored to your son or daughter’s specific educational needs.

3. Tutoring

Your tutor will make a recommendation as to the frequency of tutoring (based on the results of the assessment and any other information provided by parents or teachers) and tutoring will commence.

4. Communication

Nourishing Minds Tutoring takes great pride in having superb communication with parents and caregivers. You will be kept informed and updated every step of the way. Furthermore, your tutor will work with your child’s teachers to ensure that their needs are being met.

_{Nourishing Minds Tutoring has been a tremendous help to our 7-year old son, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with them. Nourishing Minds strikes the perfect balance - motivating our son to work hard and encouraging him to take pride in his work, while still keeping the atmosphere fun and loose. In looking for a tutor we knew we wanted someone who would teach our son how to learn, as opposed to just teaching facts or information. His tutor does just that, tailoring his tutoring methods to fit our son’s personality and learning style. We feel such relief knowing that our son is gaining skills that will make him a more independent and analytical learner in the future.}

FAQs

How do I know if my child needs a tutor?

Simply put, all children can benefit from the services of a tutor. A tutor can help accelerate a child’s learning to enrich the curriculum provided at school, or can help fill in the gaps in your child’s learning foundation to facilitate confidence and more success. However, if you notice some of the following behaviors it could be time to take action and seek the services of a tutor:

Avoiding school.
Poor attitude.
Slipping grades.
Lacking confidence.
Carelessness with their schoolwork.
Time management issues.
Anxiety
Confusion/Frustration
Boredom
Hopelessness

If your child is experiencing any of the above, please contact us. Tutoring is an affordable service and provides an excellent return on your investment in your child’s future.

How does tutoring work?

Nourishing Minds Tutoring believes in offering 100% customized and individual plans for all its pupils.

A detailed assessment will be conducted with your child at their first session. This assessment is different to the ones conducted in school. Most standardized assessments in school compare your child’s score against a national benchmark, hence giving your child a score in comparison with others around the state/country. At Nourishing Minds Tutoring our assessments give a detailed analysis of exactly which areas are your child’s strengths/weaknesses.

From this assessment your tutor will formulate a plan to support your child’s individual needs, which will be shared with the parent/care giver, and tutoring sessions will commence.

Can you help with the Common Core state standards?

Yes! All of our lessons are linked to the learning standards and anchors in the Common Core State Standards of New York State. Additionally, please see our comprehensive section on the Common Core for help.
