Summer Programs

Excellent programs for the many needs of K-12 students during the summer 2022.

 

While the school year may come to an end, learning never stops! You can enjoy the break from your heavy homework load, but summer is NOT a time to let your brain go into hibernation.  Instead, we at Tutoring Rocks believe it’s the perfect opportunity to catch up on difficult concepts, to study ahead for next year, and to explore new ways of studying. Because of this, we provide plenty of options during the summer to suit your goals and your interests. Whether you’re enrolled in summer school and need help with specific subjects, you want to feel ultra prepared for the upcoming school year, or you simply want your mind to stay sharp, we’re here to help.

 

All of our private summer tutoring options are available in person at our El Dorado Hills location or digital anywhere you are located. Keeping the learning alive this summer by bridging learning gaps and working ahead will elevate your child’s confidence walking into the classroom on the first day of school.

WEEKLY TUTORING

Keep your mind sharp during the summer!
JUNE 6 – JULY 28 (in person or digital)

Utilize your time away from the classroom in our eight-week summer program to focus on one or more of our summer directions. You will walk away feeling confident as you enter the first day of school.

Enrichment

It feels good to get ahead. Getting a grasp on a course’s material before even entering the classroom gives students their greatest chance for maximum success. We believe that working ahead sets students up for a deep understanding of core concepts and, in turn, results in healthy pride in self-accomplishment.

Foundational 

Strong fundamentals are key to understanding the toughest concepts in school. We recognize that summer can be just the right opportunity to build a strong foundation for those subjects that may be causing you to struggle. Spend some one-on-one time with one of our academic mentors to get prepared and feel confident as you enter the next school year.

LET’S GET STARTED


  • "TR is so gifted! Our son has had many tutors over the years and it had been a struggle each and every week to get him to go. In two years with TR, he has never once asked to skip tutoring. They have been a light for our child as he approaches 16! I can never thank them enough for their positive energy and enthusiasm with my child week after week!"

    Cindy, TR parent

  • "Our two teen daughters have been raised to ask for support when they need it. We are eternally grateful that this help came in the form of Tutoring Rocks! Not only do they have the expertise required to assist students with specific, skill-based strategies in all subject areas, but they also tailor their tutoring to the ‘whole’ child. The particular learning style of a student is always honored and respected."

    Wendy, TR parent

  • "The TR family is a gift to the young people in our community. They are extremely knowledgeable in their subjects, they are kindhearted in their demeanor, and they naturally generate enthusiasm for studying."

    Shelbi, TR parent

SUMMER TUTORING

use summer to continue the momentum

Everyone can use a little break from school. Students take the summers off to grow in other ways, whether it be through extracurriculars or socially. With that said, much like anything else that requires practice, leave the books on the shelves for months on end and students risk losing the progress that they’ve worked so hard to achieve.

avoid learning loss

Recent studies by Brookings have placed summer learning loss figures at an average of twenty-five to thirty percent as students advance in their K-12 education. This is learning loss that can be overcome simply by scaling back rather than completely separating from academics during the summer months. Furthermore, students that perhaps just made it through a subject area in the past school year can use this time to work out their difficulties and play catch-up so they’re ready for the upcoming school year.

Our summer tutoring programs are designed with flexibility in mind

The Tutoring Rocks summer tutoring and study skills program is the premier way for students in the Sacramento, Folsom and El Dorado Hills areas to keep their mind active in an environment that both encourages growth but also understands that the summertime is a period for relaxation. Our summer tutoring programs are designed with flexibility in mind, so your family won’t have to worry about going away on vacation and missing out. Our team of tutors work with parents directly to identify scheduling needs and academic areas of focus, then turn their attention to the student to develop a learning curriculum that will both assist their learning during the summer months while simultaneously retaining their interest. Our study skills program moves beyond subject-specific content and is a must for any student looking to build on their organization techniques, while our classic summer tutoring assists students with specific content needs in ensuring that they get to where they need to be in order to succeed in the next exciting year of school that awaits them.
