Introduction: The fact is that teachers face increasingly large class sizes and page upon pages of work every night, outside of daily classroom activities. Additional help, focused on your child's strengths and natural abilities, is often the missing ingredient to real academic success. With Iowa City Learns, your child is seen by our tutors as a peer, as an individual.
As a team, we believe in hard work, patience and understanding. We acknowledge that, while it is truly grasping the concepts that matters, grades are increasingly important in today's competitive academic environment. Having learned this ourselves, we are able to help your child reach the grade he or she deserves without compromising academic integrity.
As a recent high school graduate and a current college student I can appreciate the difficulty of learning everything just by going to class and the increasing importance of good grades in this day and age. I took advantage of the help from tutors in high school and found it to be extremely helpful. Knowing that I am helping to pass on the learning and success that I received at that age is what I like most about my job.
