Since 1980 the Applied Scholastics Achievement Program (ASAP) has been used by tutors across the United States to remediate and provide extra help to students in reading, language arts and mathematics. Overall, a child who uses this program can progress at a rate of at least one grade level of improvement in just 20 hours of tutoring. This is well beyond typical results with other programs. Tutoring is done one-on-one with a trained and caring tutor who helps each student to move through his or her program as quickly as they are able. Attention is focused on the areas of greater difficulty and always with 100% comprehension and demonstrated mastery before moving onto the next part. Our goal is to help students understand and apply what they have learned so their knowledge reaches far beyond that of passing an exam. This gives them the solid framework and skills they need to be confident and succeed in life.
