WHY ONE-ON-ONE TUTORING?

Friday, July 24th, 2009

Hello. I am Laurie Hurley, President and Founder of Bright Apple Tutoring and Educational Services, Inc. I have been matching tutors with students for in-home tutoring  since 2002.   I started Bright Apple because I truly believe a student learns best in the comfort of their home with a tutor who understands them – all aspects – the subject matter in which they need help, their unique learning style and their personality.

 With class sizes increasing due to school closures and other economic reasons,  it is easy for a student to get “lost” in the classroom. That is where Bright Apple comes in and helps you get the right help for your student.  Our philosophy is a child will learn better, at their own kitchen table, working with their textbooks and assignments, away from distractions and peer pressure.

Our tutors are professional individuals who truly enjoy making that all important connection with a student.  Our focus is on applying concepts and improving study skills – not just homework help.

One-on-one tutoring is affordable and convenient – we come to you at your convenience and we tutor seven days a week, all  year long.  We  hope to hear from you if your child is in need of expert, individualized attention.  Check our blog often for subjects that pertain to education!
