ASHLEY TUTORS’ TEAM OF POSITIVE ROLE MODELS KEEP STUDENTS SHARP ALL SUMMER

Tutors sees “brain drain” every September

            MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. – Local tutoring company Ashley Tutors (http://www.ashleytutors.com) has hired an experienced and diverse tutoring team to put into practice the Ashley Tutors’ motto: LIVE! Learning Is Very Entertaining.  School is winding down, summer is fast approaching, and the energetic instructors are ready to keep students’ minds sharp and prepare them for next school year.  Ashley Tutors offers one-on-one in-home academic help in any subject for students in grades kindergarten through 12 in the Washington, D.C. area.

Research shows children can forget some of what they’ve learned over the summer, according to Harris Cooper, director of Duke University’s program in Education.  The Ashley Tutors team is poised to help students retain knowledge over the summer break.  Pairing your child with Ashley Tutors is just what is needed to start the new school year a step ahead.

“Our tutors tell us every year that it takes about two months for the kids to get back in gear after the summer,” said Josh Chernikoff, founder of Ashley Tutors which was recently featured on NBC 4 in Washington, D.C. in a recent story about keeping students sharp over the summer.  “We see that kids who took off don’t get back on the learning track for almost three months.  Typically, the first quarter of the new school year is spent catching up, learning new routines and expectations, and relearning previously taught materials.  Our tutors can help students avoid that pitfall by being the catalyst for an educational and fun summer!”

It is difficult for working parents to find time to provide a learning environment for their child in the summer.  Ashley Tutors offers the perfect opportunity for your child to receive both an entertaining and educational experience.  Parents can also visit the Ashley Tutors blog on the Ashley Tutors website for useful tips on how to keep your student’s minds moving this summer so they’re not behind next September.  Suggestions include walks to the library, keeping daily journals and active outdoor play.

The Ashley Tutors’ team that can make even summer learning entertaining consists of 12 instructors with learning from exceptional college and graduate educations and also come from differing backgrounds with intriguing personal stories.  “It is important to have well educated and extremely energetic instructors with the engaging teaching methods we use,” said Chernikoff.  “So, our team has been assembled to be as diverse as the students we tutor all over the Washington, D.C. area.”
