Math & Language Arts
Math and Language Arts are both offered by the academy on a private tutoring session basis:
Math:
In the private math tutoring sessions, teachers focus on building the student's understanding of math concepts rather than just doing math homework.  Many students have shown dramatic improvements of one and two grades by studying concepts, and demonstrating an ability to solve problems when under the pressure of a math test.  Special emphasis is placed on how to effectively take math examinations, and how to pace oneself in order to complete exams in a timely manner.  Because students learning styles can be different with respect to how math is learned, teachers work to unlock what methods work best with each student.  For this reason, private tutoring is recommended as the primary approach to effectively enhance math skills, rather than group classes.  Tutoring is taught in sessions of 30 minutes, 45 minutes and one hour, with the cost being the same as that of private music instruction.
Language Arts
Language studies are offered in a private tutoring session for the following languages:
  •  Spanish

  •  French

  •  English

  •  Italian

 
Teachers apply unique teaching methods to language arts studies ranging from beginning to advanced tutoring.  Special emphasis is given to conversational language studies, writing, interpretation, understanding of dialect, grammar, vocabulary and the application of tenses.  Private tutoring offers the flexibility of either a formal academic approach, or tutoring for those soon to vacation in a foreign country.  Instructors at the academy are able to converse and write in the languages they teach.
 
Special English emphasis in business writing, novel writing, or essay writing is offered by the academy in addition to English as a second language.  For high school students needing to shore up their SAT scores, or weekend novelists, the academy's English writing tutoring sessions are perfect.
