First off, the teaching material is made so that what you're working on in the center correlates to the what you're working on in class. The teaching material uses what the kids know and builds off of that. For example, when someone just learned how to find the area of a triangle and a square, the material at the center will then ask how to find the total surface area of a triangular prism.
When the kids do not have a strong sense of what to do, well, let's just say the tutors will know. First, they don't just blindly follow the teaching material like many others do. What's great about the tutors is their occupation, or at least background, is in the same subject as the subjects that they tutor in. For example, there is a tutor who majors in mathematics and is tutoring in math. So the tutors really know what they're doing! Next, the tutors really connect with the kids, which not only makes it easier for the kids to learn but it also makes learning more fun!
In essence:
- Teaching material builds off of what the kids have learned in class.
- Tutors are more than familiar with the subjects that they are teaching in.
- Tutors are fully capable - able to make a casual environment for the kids = more fun and easy to learn.
