ALL TUTORING AND HOMEWORK HELP IS PROVIDED BY A LIVE PERSON ONLINE (CENTRAL STANDARD TIME); THEREFORE, STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN 21ST CENTURY LEARNING REGARDLESS OF LOCATION.
Tutoring and Homework Support
Each student will receive a student manual and jot book.
Tutoring sessions are on grade-level content.
Live instruction by a highly qualified teacher will be provided.
Time will be allotted for homework support during each tutoring session.
Students will work in a small group setting during tutoring.

Synchronous Learning Model
Let's learn together!
Synchronous is a fancy way of saying "work together". Instead of students logging in and watching an instructional video, students will have a live person to guide the instruction and support them as they learn. Students will also collaborate with other peers, in a safe learning environment, on the same grade-level from across the nation.
Digital Literacy and Computer Science Standards (DLCS)
Attaining digital and computational literacy strengthens life skills such as solving problems creatively, thinking critically, and working cooperatively in teams. Because technology is at the center of almost every aspect of daily life, the digitally literate person is more likely to face the challenges of a dynamic global society with confidence (Alabama COS Digital Literacy, Computers Science Standards, 2018). Therefore, Harrell Academy has embedded DLCS within tutoring sessions to ensure students are digitally literate and can use technology responsibly and appropriately to create, collaborate, think critically, and apply algorithmic processes.
Monthly Project
Students will receive a culminating project at the end of each tutoring cycle. During the last session, students will work on the project collaboratively. All materials will be provided and are kid-friendly. This project will allow students to apply what they have learned during their learning cycle.
**This is a resource that other tutoring providers DO NOT offer to their students. :)
