First Grade Math Tutoring
Course
Our tutoring and learning center offers three types of math programs designed for students
attending first grade.
-
Individual tutoring (one-on-one tutoring).
-
Small group tutoring. Our regular small group tutoring programs (2 - 5 students) are
one hour long and held throughout the academic year from September to June. They provide an excellent
combination of individualized instruction with one of our math tutors and the benefits of collaborative study
with others. Students may bring the homework assigned by their respective teachers to their
learning center classes and our tutors will help them with their specific assignments. In
addition, our math tutors can cover the missed skills and provide additional instruction on
challenging material in our own classes. Students enroll in our small group math tutoring programs
by completing an application and returning it to the Columbia Academy tutoring and learning
center. Enrollment is open throughout the year. A monthly commitment is required.
-

consecutive sessions and covers the following topics:
-

Each session is 12 weeks long. The class meets once a week for one hour. Separate registration
for each session ensures that the session you have chosen best meets your child's needs and it will not interfere
with his/her other after-school activities during the year. Please refer to the Schedule page for specific dates
when the sessions begin and end.
