The Princeton Reviews Tutoring Essentials

The Princeton Review's Tutoring EssentialsAs you read the first few pages of The Princeton Review Tutoring Essentials, you might think that the thought of a teacher who's 'education comes from another school' is pure cheesy garbage. So why is this book so popular? Is it because teachers, and parents, want to create a very high level of respect for their children by teaching them the most important things on the planet that they can?Well, the fact is that there is plenty of competition out there, and The Princeton Review has a huge reach across the world. A lot of it is generated by the way they're written and produced, and this book is no different. I have not always enjoyed reading this sort of text, but you have to remember that the Princeton Review has done an amazing job of getting it right. This is a large list of subjects in simple to understand and easily understood language, plus they're presented in a unique format.As for the topics covered in this text, the ones that strike my attention as being exceptionally fascinating are ones that involve the ability to see beyond a problem. Of course, every child would like to know how they can solve a particular problem, but there are no short cuts, and if we want to develop the 'executive function', we must teach the concepts that will help us take the areas of a problem and help us decide what to do next.This is something that comes up a lot in the classroom and in many other settings - we all need to find out how we can make a difference and improve our lives. This text provides teachers with ways to help them do just that. And one of the areas it covers is using technology to help them better achieve this goal.That is the area where Tutoring at Home excels. There are dozens of short stories about tutors at work and in the community, so you can imagine the variety of students that tutors serve. Also, when you compare the number of different grades involved, the breadth of the topics covered, and the number of different ways to improve the student's results, this is truly a versatile text. A student who is struggling with any topic, or not progressing well, can choose which resources to use from one of the numerous options.All the features of Tutoring at Home are the product of The Princeton Review. This is a very broad text that can be used by anyone, anywhere, at any time. Parents can teach their children at home, a teacher can give a lesson at a nearby college, a city school district can use The Princeton Review to help educate their students. It really has its place in our society and helps to give everyone the tools they need to better communicate with each other.So, should you trust this book? Well, you need to ask yourself what your goals are for your children and what the nature of their lessons are. Are you the type of parent who simply wants to be able to answer their own questions, or is your child a new start for your life?
