"Free Tutoring for Students"
Funded by North Carolina Department of Public Instruction
TRAC Enrichment Center, Inc. offers tutoring for students in grades Kindergarten through Eighth. The student/teacher ratio is 3 to 1. Students are involved in small groups and individual instruction. Instruction is presented in several formats that match the student’s individual academic needs, such as, auditory (hearing), visual (seeing), tactile and kinesthetic (hands on).
Typical teaching methods and styles include cooperative learning, explicit instruction, hands-on active learning, peer coaching, modeling (teacher demonstration), center activities based on learning style modalities, systematic and data driven instruction and the use of technology through computer activities, listening stations, smart board and classroom performance system instruction that reinforces critical thinking and problem solving strategies.
Activities include independent study, direct and guided instruction with scaffolding (working with children on their level), explicit remediation, cooperative learning, inquiry based activities and interactive learning.
