Being a future teacher myself, I am very concerned with the various
happenings in the educational field across the globe. I feel that it is important to know not only the educational system in my country, knowing other countries’
are equally important to improve teaching and learning for the younger
generation.
I came across this site lately which I would like to blog
about. Students in the United States of America, Canada, Turkey, the
Philippines and Australia will surely be well benefited. It is an online
tutorial named after the founder herself – Ashley Searles.
The Ashley’s Angels
Tutoring is a private tutoring company that aims to build students’ confidence,
academic skills and love of learning for students of all ages. The programs are
customized with students' exact needs and individual learning styles factor taken into
consideration.
They do one-to-one tutoring which is really good especially for
students who have problem learning in a big group. Most people concentrate and
absorb better when they are being focused more by the tutor. I personally really agree with this
based on my experience in teaching in a rural area secondary school. Students do learn better when the teacher tries to focus more on them.
Ashley Searles strongly believes “It’s more than just
tutoring, it’s enriching, motivating and conquering!” She is born with natural
talent for mathematics and majored in Mathematical Science and Special
Education K-8 at Kean University in Union, New Jersey. She is currently a
member of The National Honor Society, NAACP, National Honor Society of Phi
Kappa Phi and Lambda Alpha Sigma. From the perspectives of parents, I think it
is essential for you to know the qualifications of the person who will be
tutoring your child.
Most of the times, you tend to just send your children to
tuition without really knowing how qualified the teachers over there are. I
used to teach in an after school day care center. I was so terrified to know that
the owner of the center actually hired Tom, Dick and Harry to be the teachers
whose duty is to check and tutor students’ homework. Their qualifications
reached only high school level and most of them do not even have a
pre-university certification.
I have seen them making mistakes in correcting students’
homework. At that time, I worked part-time during my semester break. Thus, I was in no
position to comment anything much about that. I could only do my best to assist
students who were given under my care. For your information, I am an
undergraduate of a teaching education bachelor degree program. I believe a high
qualification teacher is able to tutor students better.
The Ashley’s Angels Tutoring offers Mathematics online
tutoring service for grades k through 12 students. This means students from age
5 – 18 are eligible. It’s easy and convenient. All you need is just a laptop
and Internet connection. For busy parents, you don’t have to spend time sending
your children to tuition. This will save you a lot of precious time and petrol money.
What sets Ashley’s Angels Tutoring apart from other
companies (I know there are abundant of them outside there, but we’re picking
the best) is the interactive and innovative approach to the online services.
Each lesson is individualized to fit the specific student’s needs.
A student
may be weak in algebra but good in calculus. One-to-one specialized tutoring
enables the student to master algebra better as more emphasis can be given on
that topic. Also, you have to understand that learning is proportional to time.
As effective teachers, it is important to know that you have limited time frame
to teach your students to master a certain skill/topic. You cannot be taking
forever to teach without considering the time factor. Thus, teacher knowing
which topic to focus is very important.
Other than that, this
online tutoring is definitely affordable, convenient, fun, engaging and
interactive. They cover a list of subject areas as listed below:
- Arithmetic
- Numbers and Operations
- Pre-Algebra
- Algebra
- Pre-Calculus
- Calculus
- Geometry
- Statistics
- Probability
- Data Analysis
- Biology
- Earth Science
- Basic Science
- SAT Prep
- GED Prep and more
To summarize the overall program, I think it is important
for students to master the basic knowledge of Mathematics from the beginning. Otherwise, various negative
feedbacks will be resulted as a consequence of failure to follow-up with more
difficult subject areas.
