About the student
- The student is a 9th grader attending Phoenix High School. He will need a tutor for English and executive functioning. He scored below expectations in both English and Geometry (already has a tutor for that!) indicating that he is behind. His main challenges involve executive functioning, particularly organization, task prioritization, task initiation, and self-monitoring. These difficulties make it harder for him to work independently and efficiently. Although he feels he understands the material in both subjects, he will need an initial review of key terminology and concepts to address any gaps. Moving forward, he will need weekly review, assignment support, and help preparing for tests in both subjects.
-
The goal is for the student to become more confident and independent while staying organized and keeping up with his work.
-
The family wants 1 hour sessions 2 times a week between 5:30pm-8pm on Monday and Tuesday.
- The family wants to meet in-person with the tutor at their home in Kalamazoo near the Heritage Christian Academy and next to the Forest View on 11th apartments.
