The fact that one of the students in a first-grade classroom is obsessed with Taylor Swift goes way beyond an interest in pop music. Such a personal passion at Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready has been identified as a potent portal towards significant education. The basic mission of Kinder Ready Tutoring is to help ignite these individual sparks to create confidence in a child and a real and sustained love of learning.
This interest-led learning philosophy is what we focus our entire actions on. Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready develops a fully personalized curriculum for each student by first taking a close assessment of the student to establish their strengths and the areas that need improvement. Once a child joins our program with a fascination for a subject such as dinosaurs, space, or a world music personality, that subject will become the colorful thread that runs throughout the lessons. This will be used to make sure that the learning process is personally relevant and extensive in that it makes educational foundations a discovery, instead of a chore.
But what does an obsession with Taylor Swift mean when it comes to basic competencies? The professional teachers in Kinder Ready Elizabeth Fraley creatively relate the world of a child to basic academic and social-emotional objectives. In the case of our hypothetical first-grade Swiftie, this may appear as:
Developing Literacy and Vocabulary: Interpretation of song lyrics to examine and investigate rich terms, rhyme, and narrative and transferring the newly learned words to original writing.
Creating Numeracy Skills: Providing Taylor Swift with her favorite number, 13, or the year 1989 as a platform and discussing math games, skip-counting activities, and problem-solving.
Developing Fine Motor Skills: Designing complex patterns of friendship bracelets, which creates the skills of dexterity and hand-eye coordination needed in writing.
Supporting Social-Emotional Development: Talking about the topic of friendship, persistence, and self-expression in music to allow children to interpret and express their own emotions.
Such an approach is absolutely efficient. According to parents, their children not only acquire important skills but, most importantly, enjoy the process. It is this happy interaction that forms the foundation of the trust that Kinder Ready Tutoring intends to build. This makes the children feel that their own interests are justified and incorporated into their learning; they get a positive self-image of being competent and inquisitive learners.
The advantages of such a holistic, personalized approach are not limited to the daily sessions. Elizabeth Fraley Kinder Ready provides material support throughout the whole span of children’s learning, including special holiday courses that eliminate the threat of learning lapses, and elaborate instructions after parent-teacher meetings. Getting where a child is–though it may be where they are now, in their Taylor Swift times–we create the solid and versatile base upon which they will be able to succeed in school and develop an interest in discovery that lasts life long.
