Over their long vacation, most students
experience a phenomenon known as the summer slide where they lose much of the
academic gains they made over the last semester. Summer academic losses are
also cumulative so students who experience the summer slide will drop further
behind every year.
The
problem
According to the
authors of a report from the National Summer Learning Association: "A
conservative estimate of lost instructional time is approximately two months or
roughly 22 percent of the school year." While
academic losses happen across the board, most of the studies which focus on the
summer slide deal with reading and math abilities which are so important for
today’s students who want to compete in an increasingly tough job market.
Better learning means a better life
The antidote to the
summer slide is to take just a couple of sessions every week for in-home
tutoring. Here your kids get personalized education that suits their
personalities, abilities and learning style. Watch their confidence grow as
they not only avoid the summer slide but fill in the gaps in their learning, and
acquire the study skills they need to succeed in the new year.
