Practice Makes Perfect
Students question the need to be in the Math Lab during the summer, yet they don’t question the need for summer football training. Just like we need to keep our bodies in shape, we need to keep our brains in shape.
If you’ve seen a lot of progress through the year, why would you let that dwindle away by not practicing those skills over the summer? Start out the new year strong with a fresh mind that has practiced and kept in shape.
Think about when you first learned to read. You started with letters, which turned into words, then into sentences and finally BOOKS. If you did not study and look at letters daily, you would not have been able to turn those letters into words and you would have to continually relearn. Take what you have learned this year, grow it, expand it and understand things at a whole new level.
Some things to work on over the summer include: basic math skills, logic skills, writing skills and my personal favorite, test taking skills!
Summer is not only a great time to keep up skills you’ve already learned, but also a good time to get started on preparing for the SAT and ACT while not plagued with hours of homework and practice until 8pm. And how about a little incentive to get started today? Sign up for a Test Prep package that includes 10 hours or more of tutoring by July 1st and receive $25 off of a Fall Test Prep lab package.
