Our energetic and diverse team has been assembled to make learning entertaining, to improve students' self-esteem, and to connect each student with a positive role model. The Ashley Tutors team consists of 65+ instructors who offer their students knowledge from their exceptional college and graduate educations, and also come from differing backgrounds with intriguing personal stories or jobs.
"The goal of Ashley Tutors is to develop a unique, individualized and very interactive strategy to meet the needs of each student," said Joshua Chernikoff, the Ashley Tutors team member who interviews, investigates and selects each individual tutor. "Because the teaching method is so interactive, it is important to have well educated and extremely energetic instructors. So, it is no accident that our team is as diverse as the students we tutor all over the Washington, D.C. area."
Before any of the fresh team of tutors has the privilege of teaching the Ashley Tutors' motto, LIVE! Learning Is Very Entertaining; they must pass a strict background check by Intelius, a nationally recognized security company that is endorsed by the National Child Safety Foundation. In addition to that background check, a face-to-face meeting takes place, references are checked, and the tutor must demonstrate their ability to teach."
"Our tutors are not only trusted with the success of a student's education, they are also trusted to be in the student's home," said Chernikoff. "Therefore, even before we discuss working with any tutor, we do a background check."
