Member Spotlight- Elevate Tutoring Services
You survived high school… now WHY put yourself through the frustration of “re-learning” math equations and science terminology to try and explain it to your kiddos when they can learn MORE, with focused one-on-one tutoring from Elevate Tutoring Services? Karlene Brown, Elevate Tutoring Services, is a University of Nebraska graduate with her degree in chemical engineering. After working on breast cancer research for a professor, she worked on technology transfer at Hospira and admits that although she liked her jobs, her real passion is learning more. Transitioning to tutoring, Karlene now shares her enthusiasm and learning techniques with students though Elevate Tutoring Services.
Karlene challenged the Chamber Connections audience with examples of Freshman math questions that many have “partially forgotten”. That is why you call Elevate Tutoring Services at 308-631-8816, so Karlene can help your child identify the issues and communicate efficient ways to complete the work. Did you know 50% of high school students have at least 1 hour or homework each night? Learning time management skills and new ways to synthesize information will not only help them now, but is the building block they need for future education challenges.
Along with tutoring and ACT prep, Karlene has been busy scheduling summer workshops. Elevate Tutoring Services summer reading workshops will utilize the AceReader technique of learning to read and comprehend groups of words, rather than the slower process of reading one at a time. The 4-week workshop includes access to the AceReader software for one year and ultimately improves reading speed, comprehension and fluency. It’s a win-win, when the average student will end up saving 15-20 minutes per 1 hour of reading… aka that means less time doing homework! Yeah!
The Chamber Connections audience was also captivated with a hands-on example of STEM skills (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics), demonstrated by “highly skilled” volunteers who learned that having the correct instructions, sets you up for success! Elevate Tutoring Services will be launching STEM Camp, (2) five-hour interactive classes on June 7th & 21st to introduce students to the practical skills used by STEM. Space is limited so contact Elevate Tutoring Services at karleen.elevate@gmail.com to sign up.
