A publicized report from the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) in 2018, identified that Metacognition was one of the most effective ways to support Learner Progress , and set parameters to help schools consider how to develop it in their learners. One of the fundamental goals of The Tutor Guru is to train the student to think more metacognitively- to have a critical awareness of one's own thinking and learning helps the student get to know the self and build strengths.
Education is a vital part of growing up. And there are many perspectives out there. However, one perspective resonates with us all: We want our children to feel good about themselves and what they accomplish. I am here for you! Please call or email with any questions.
Spark up your child's imagination and curiosity! Keep your child's mind active through reading, writing and art during the holidays! This is a great time to bridge the gap between the fall and spring semesters. Happy Learning!
Kids benefit from reading every day; it is not something they need a break from doing. It keeps their minds intellectually stimulated while making connections to their reality. A mix of nonfiction and fiction intermingled with relaxation and fun promotes school preparedness!
Online learning is efficient and effective because it saves time and teaches real life skills while incorporating core subjects. I often hear, "My child learns better in person. He does not focus well with online learning." Online learning is not going away and requires a set of unique skills, like being a self-starter and the ability to focus, read directions and interpret material. Metacognition is the state of being aware of one's own thought process. Once your child has that, he can do anything, including online learning. It is the present, it is the future, it is at the core of communication, a bridge.
