Press Release Summary: Ashley Tutors Partners with JCC to Offer Students More Opportunities
Press Release Body: MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. - Ashley Tutors (www.ashleytutors.com), launched in October 2007, offers one-on-one in-home academic tutoring to students in grades kindergarten through 12 in the Washington metropolitan area. Ashley Tutors develops unique, individualized strategies to meet the needs of each of its students in the comfort of their own home. "Ashley Tutors worked wonders with my child who is learning disabled," said a parent of a BCC High School student. "Our tutors used new individualized strategies to build on my son's strengths and also give him a boost of confidence." Adding another facet to its strong tutoring service, Ashley Tutors (www.ashleytutors.com) is proud to be working with the Jewish Community Center (JCC) of Greater Washington (www.jccgw.org), providing on-site tutoring to further enhance the JCC's exceptional after-school programming. Ashley Tutors prides itself on its in-home tutoring service, and the JCC offers a central location in Montgomery County, Md., offering a quiet atmosphere for students to focus on their studies after school. "The JCC has a well established, highly respected after-school program in a familiar and comforting atmosphere," said Josh Chernikoff, the Ashley Tutors team member responsible for interviewing, investigating and hiring each tutor. "Studying at the JCC gives the student the same comfort level as if they were in their own home." Based on the teaching methods of Ashley Fagel, a passionate instructor with a master's degree in education from the University of Maryland, Ashley Tutors encourages the use of kinesthetic learning, a method of teaching in which a student carries out a physical activity, rather than listening to a teacher talk. Every tutor on the Ashley Tutors team works with Fagel on how to best utilize kinesthetic learning and speaks with Fagel each Sunday to review their last tutoring session. Any member of Ashley Tutors can make anything from homework help to an abstract subject entertaining in their one-on-one sessions with the use of kinesthetic methods.
