| THE ROAD TO EXCELLENCE |
| Eldridge Overton Educational Programs prepare students to achieve excellence. Why Should You Choose Us? Simply Stated- Because we do what makes sense. We are a small company, not some corporate giant that looks at your student as one customer amongst a sea of others. We assess the psychoeducational needs of our clients so that we may have insight into the entire "educational picture". This assessment allows us to work with the client holistically. We will not simply impose some prepackaged, ready-made program upon our clients. The program administrators review each assessment. We then create a customized plan after careful review of our individualized assessment, parent/guardian interviews, homework, tests, teacher notes and other qualitative and quantitative information. The Comprehensive Assessment A comprehensive assessment is administered to the client to present a complete picture of the academic strengths and weaknesses. This norm-referenced assessment discovers the causes of academic frustration and pinpoints the specific skill areas in which the student is experiencing difficulty. These skill gaps are what lead to falling behind in school. The Individualized Educational Program Our program is based on specifically identified skill gaps. A mastery-based learning plan is carefully developed and individualized to focus on identified skill gaps and on the development of new skills. The Successful Program Success is built into our program. At every tutoring session, the student achieves success by completing specific learning objectives. Students demonstrate that they have mastered one skill before moving on to the next skill. Each success results in improved self esteem and confidence. A low student teacher ratio ensures immediate and individual access to trained and caring tutors. As a result, each student receives a wealth of personal attention. Our motivational system provides an incentive for consistent and continued student efforts. Continual assessment of student progress is an integral part of the program. An ongoing review of goals and objectives closely tracks the student work. The Partnership that leads to Excellence The Founding Partners have always had a passion for children and their academic, social and emotional development and well-being. The partners are highly trained in the fields of psychology and education. They consistently update their knowledge base by taking advanced graduate courses, attending and conducting trainings, and being cognizant of the latest research in their respective fields. Additionally, they collaborate with other experts in the field, their educational partners, to provide the best programs their clients. |
