Q: What things do you learn about a student when they take a comprehensive assessment?
A: We are able to identify any foundational gaps that are not allowing the student to move forward. We are able to create a detailed learning plan based on the student's needs.
Q: What is a customized learning plan?
A: Our customized learning plan is created based on the detailed assessment. It will contain topics and areas we need to work with the particular student.
Q: How do you gauge progress?
