Richmond, VA – January 7th, 2014 — Tutor Doctor, a personalized one-on-one, in-home tutoring service, is offering families and schools a new way to help all students become high performers. It’s an academic Game plan called “X-Skills.”
What are X-Skills?
Studies have shown that the single greatest factor which influences student success is not academic
knowledge, but academic discipline. This includes learning skills such as planning and organization;
follow through and action; and sustained effort. All of these skills fall into a category known as Executive
Functions, or “X-Skills” which can be thought as the skills human beings develop to execute tasks
independently.
Using our “X-Skills” process, students can be coached to improve the skills which contribute to strong academic discipline. Beginning with middle school, parents are offered an opportunity to integrate X-Skills development into their student’s tutoring sessions.
Together with our One-on-One tutoring model, Tutor Doctor students will build both the confidence and study skills necessary to succeed in school.
Every student is different, which is why we use a one-on-one method in our learning model, but “X-Skills” adds extra steps which get students started on boosting their marks in school.”
Tutor Doctor services students in their homes with a one-on-one method. The business has continually impacted the lives of students by helping them improve test scores in school.
