Tutoring Services / Supplemental Educational Services Providers
Supplemental Educational Services (SES) include summer and before- and after-school tutoring in reading, language arts, or math. They may be offered through public- or private-sector providers who are approved by the state, such as public schools, public charter schools, local education agencies (local school systems, herein referred to as LEAs), educational service agencies, faith-based organizations, and community groups.
Students from low-income families who remain in Title I schools that fail to meet AYP for at least three years, and are thus in the second year of Needs Improvement status, are eligible to receive SES.

Program Summary
Educate! Motivate! Celebrate! We believe if the child is in our seat we can help them. Our program is designed with the highest regard for helping struggling learners in Georgia. We tutor students in Kindergarten through 8th grade in reading or math. Our professionally trained tutors, most of whom are certified teachers from local school and community are trained to ensure that our students are always supervised. We are in our fifth year of operation. Our program is housed mainly in the local schools. Our classes are held two days a week for 90 minutes each day and we tutor in small groups and large groups. A key component of our program is goal setting with all parties; parents and school personnel participate following an examination of available school data and an analysis of a diagnostic pretest. With this information, we develop an Individual Student Plan (ISP) with specific goals and individualized curriculum for the student. We have aligned our curriculum and the master plan of each School District we serve. We present a progress report monthly to parents, teachers and school districts. Our company administers a post test to determine student growth and curriculum strengths and weaknesses. We are happy to report, there are significant reading and math gains in every school district we serve. Our company conducts initial and on-going training for tutors. We celebrate learning at the end of the program by inviting parents, tutors, and students to a Completion Ceremony. At this ceremony we recognize each child's work ethic and regular attendance. Our tutoring company takes pride and counts it a privilege to provide supplemental services in Reading and Math to the students in the State of Georgia.

Program Summary
Learning Solutions, has been serving students in the Atlanta area for 19 years. The longevity, the return of students, and the improvement of academics demonstrate the effectiveness of the tutorial program. The UGA/DOE 2007-2008 survey analyzed the test scores of students served by Learning Solutions and showed that in math, more than fifty percent of the Learning Solutions SES students scored higher on the State CRCT than the comparison group. The Survey showed that in reading, a greater percentage of Learning Solutions SES students moved to a higher performance level on the State CRCT than the comparison group. Tutorial sessions are 1.5 hours (bi-weekly) with choices of days and times (Monday-Thursday, 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. / Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.). Flexibility is necessary. Parents who are the sole source of transportation often have schedules that create hardships. These schedules must be addressed. The instruction at Learning Solutions is based on the results of a reading/L.A. and math Basic Skills Inventory given to each student and the review of each student's CRCT. Using this information, the student is prescribed an individualized curriculum with goals set to improve weak areas as shown on the BSI and CRCT. The curriculum is designed to improve grades, CRCT scores, and aligns with GPS. An integrated approach is used in reading, to address word analysis, vocabulary, comprehension and study skills. The math curriculum utilizes a balanced mathematics approach where basic knowledge, operational skills, and the ability to make application are equally fostered. The curriculum is computer based and monitored by teachers with advanced degrees who are continually helping the students (5:1 ratio). Learning Solutions is located in a quiet, accessible plaza. There are 18 computer stations and 5 work stations. All instructional materials are provided. Learning Solutions has been a Georgia SES provider for seven years.

Program Summary
A+ Learning Academy (APLA) employs highly-trained instructional leaders who work to ensure that the goals of the No Child Left Behind Act are met. The APLA staff is comprised of skilled professionals possessing over seventeen years of educational experience and who have had remarkable success in closing achievement gaps with children of all learning styles. By using the latest educational technology paired with research-proven strategies each student is ensured a custom tailored learning experience. Students’ progress is monitored on an ongoing basis through various assessments such as The Diagnostic Reading Assessment (DRA), and Running Records. Our tutors work with children in Reading, Language Arts, and Math. The academy was founded on the belief that education shared with care and nurturing provides an awakening of the mind, rendering it able to more readily absorb and apply what is learned. Through a proper educational process, students are not developed as robots but instead, as critically-thinking individuals who are able to apply their learning in a way that uniquely expresses and defines who they are. We believe that success can be obtained, regardless of ethnicity and social status. APLA is committed to staffing employees with the ability to inspire all students to strive for their personal best. We provide tutoring before and after school, Saturdays and during the summer. Each session is 1.5 hours in length. We believe at APLA that learning should be fun, interactive and exciting. Tutoring schedules are arranged collaboratively with parents. We offer flexible scheduling options to ensure that all students are given the opportunity to obtain quality tutoring services. The founders of APLA believe that, while every child may not learn at the same pace, if the right tools are provided to arouse inner motivations, much can be accomplished in the learning process.

Program Summary
ABOUTFACE! Reading has been teaching reading to students throughout the Southeast for 11 years and has been an SES Provider in Georgia for four years. Our reading lessons are designed using the five scientifically-based strategies recommended by the National Reading Panel to increase reading skills. Every student is pre-tested to determine their unique needs and an Individualized Learning Plan is developed with teacher and parent input. Then, leveled books are chosen that reflect each student's current reading abilities. As students' mastery increases, additional tests pinpoint remaining skill gaps. Learning Plans are then updated to fill those gaps. Finally, post-tests are administered to gauge student improvement. Each child receives approximately 20 hours of tutoring, usually 1 hour sessions, twice weekly. All of our pupils will move to the next reading level or higher. Every child keeps every book they read. Lessons are held in LEA's, churches, libraries or other public area. We provide all materials including scripted lesson plans, books, word cards, and any other materials needed for the course of instruction.

Program Summary
Non-Profit Tutoring Service providing:
Custom One-on-One, or Small group tutoring, (less than 8:1), in the student’s home or pre-arranged facility. Progress occurs because of the Individualized nature of the program, while supplementing classroom work. Qualified tutors are “matched” to the student in Reading/Language Arts or Math, and are experienced with low income, at-risk students.
Parent insight, teacher feedback, school assessment scores, and Initial Pre-testing form a program blueprint, and tutoring progresses as subject mastery is achieved. Each student receives a custom Individual Student Plan and Goals. Teacher’s feedback is requested to assist in preparing a program for each student. Daily Lessons are prepared for each student using Georgia Performance Standards (GPS), and regular Progress Reports are provided every 2 weeks.
Using a final Post-test session, test data is compared to the initial Pre-test to determine improvement for each student.
Sessions traditionally twice per week, not exceeding 2 hours, followed by a consultation each session.
On average, improvement is one letter grade after 3 months. Student achievement improvement has averaged over 25% in Reading; Language Arts; & Math for 4 consecutive years.
Proven results working with at-risk and Low-Income students.

Program Summary
Alpha Test Prep’s use of Differential Instruction allows us to meet the diverse educational needs of the students we serve. We use Direct Instruction, Previewing, Acceleration, Graphic Organizers, and hands on instruction as a few of the instructional methods to reach our students. We incorporate the use of CRCT sub-score results, provider administered pre-test, classroom instructor conferencing, and parent/guardian input to develop student assessment profiles. From these profiles we develop Individualized Student Instruction Plans for each student. ATP’s sessions range from 45 minutes to one hour and fifteen minutes. The sessions are structured to maximize the funding each student is allotted for tutoring. We are not technology based. We do use computers for both acceleration and remediation as well as for providing additional GPS aligned practice problems. All materials employed by ATP are GPS aligned.

Program Summary
August House uses highly engaging stories from around the world with colorful animations, entertaining read along files, carefully illustrated picture books and targeted practice assignments to build the specific reading skills each student needs to succeed on the CRCT. The self-paced program is aligned to the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) for grades K-5. It can be used individually or in a small group. The program and assignments are highly interactive and guide the students to practice exactly the skills that they need to master. Students will need to have internet access and are expected to use the program twice a week for one hour at home, at a library, a community center or other facility with an internet connection. Each student is assessed throughout the program and the results are used to build and Individual Student Profile (ISP) that identifies specific strengths and weaknesses matching the GPS. Progress is measured, tracked and reported to ensure that the student is practicing the specific reading skills that he or she needs to build. When students complete a story unit, they take the book home to build their own personal reading library. After completing the program, on average the students will improve their reading skills by 10% or more on standardized tests. No transportation required. This highly engaging instructional model was developed over four years of research and testing. As a result, the program targets emerging and struggling readers who need to develop stronger skills and confidence in phonics, vocabulary, comprehension and fluency as defined by the Georgia Performance Standards.

Program Summary
Ava White Tutorials, Inc. has been helping students for 28 years. We have been involved with 3 school systems and 6 schools in the No Child Left Behind program since 2003. To date, we have assisted 5 of these 6 schools to make the Adequate Yearly Progress List. We have seen students in our after-school programs make significant gains in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. Many of our students advance 1-2 grade equivalents after the 30 hours of tutorials. To identify academic goals, each student is given a pre-test. Then we write an Individual Learning Plan, using the results of the testing, parent and teacher input. Students typically meet after school, at their school, with highly qualified, certified teachers who have valuable years of classroom experience. We see students in small groups, usually 3 to 6 pupils in these after school classes, and they meet 2 times a week for 1.5 hour sessions. Classes are typically held right after school, for example, 3:45 to 5:15. For students who meet at the school, transportation home is usually provided by the school or we pay for a taxi service to take the students home, after the tutorials. If parents prefer, we can see their child at our office for 1:1 tutorials and parents are then responsible for transportation. We use explicit, direct, incremental, systematic research-based instruction in teaching basic reading, language arts and math skills. Wilson Reading Program, LANGUAGE! and MATH*Ability are the main curriculums we use to help students reach their academic goals. All instructional materials are provided for the teachers and students. We do benchmark assessments throughout the program to ensure that students are making appropriate scholastic growth. Progress reports are sent home on a monthly basis, so that parents know how their child is making headway. We normally have 2 pizza parties during the 30-hour instructional period to reward attendance and celebrate student success.

Program Summary
BridgeHaven believes in FACE -to- FACE tutoring. We’ve served students for 15 years and strive to provide an educational program that best fits your child’s specific needs.
Our programs are researched-based and proven effective for all children, even for those with learning differences (learning disabilities, dyslexia, ADD and ADHD). We feel that every child can and will learn when instruction matches a child’s unique learning style. It is up to US to find out how your child learns best and then to remediate and enhance skills that bring success. YOUR job is to get them to us so that we can do our job using curriculum such as the Lindamood-Bell and Orton-Gillingham programs for reading and the Mathline system for math.
BridgeHaven has partnered with the public school systems since the beginning of Supplemental Educational Services (SES). Students have improved in both their assessment scores at BridgeHaven and the state-wide test, the CRCT. Parents have also given feedback as to the improvements in their child’s overall classroom performance. We want improvements in Both places and work diligently to make this happen.
Students receive 1-2 hours of instruction per day for up to 3 days a week. Academic strengths and weaknesses will be identified through a pre-test and then compared to the CRCT test. Skills needing work will be identified and academic objectives will be set to master these skills.
Our teaching methods provide an instructional hour that will be fun and educational. Trained and qualified instructors will work in small groups or one-on one, if needed, to make sure learning happens.
At the end of the program, a post-test will show the academic gains of your child.

Program Summary
The initial instructional program was created to improve the Georgia High School Test scores. The program is designed to target students that are at risk to fail the math portion of the GHSGT. The students have been selected by GHSGT predictor test scores as well as Teacher recommendations. The program also has been able to improve scores for students that have already taken the test but need to re-test for graduation. The program is designed to prepare the students to meet or exceed standards on the GHSGT and to become more confident math students. The focus of the program is positive re-enforcement for students that are usually not model students and often have no student support system at home. We designed the program with the concept of mastery learning. Our summer tutorial services primarily targeted 11th grade students who failed the math or English/Language Arts portion of the Georgia High School Graduation Test (GHSGT); however, there were number of 12th grade students who also attended the program and as a result were able to earn their high school diploma and increased the overall graduation rate of the school. The Burke County High School's graduation went from 61% in 2008 to 71% in 2009. It was felt that the summer tutorial program, especially the mathematics section, greatly contributed to this increase. Prior to the summer tutorial only 68% of students passed the test the first time. After the summer program this number increased by 3 percentage points which can be considered significant. Of the students involved in the summer program, 89% passed the Mathematics re-take and 45% passed the English Language Arts portion at re-test.

Program Summary
Over the years, C2 has compiled statistics as to how many hours of instruction it takes to raise students from a given level of performance (as measured by our initial assessment using the California Achievement Test) to a desired level set in the program goals (worked out by parent and C2 center director). While most students come on average 2 times a week, that figure is flexible and depends on the amount of improvement required. Therefore, the 2 hour figure above is a typical program. However, each program, including number of sessions per week is tailored to the needs of each student. The 2 hour session is standard to allow for sufficient instruction and practice and to ensure a consistent schedule during the week so that we can ensure that students have guaranteed availability when they come to C2.

Our recent history of documented test score improvements shows that up to 94% of our students improved reading and math skills by up to 40%, with students at greatest risk showing some of the largest gains. And parent and classroom teacher satisfaction surveys suggest that our students have become more engaged in learning.

We consult with the school on what the student needs to improve, and we conduct our own testing, in order to create a custom-made program for each student. We will accommodate the student's special way of learning and we will match each one with the tutor and group best suited to needs. English Language Learners are welcome and we provide special materials for rapid improvement of basic skills. Site supervisors keep contact with parents, tutors and schools, so that each student is receiving proper attention. Our Steps to Success trade mark materials cover all the major Reading and Math strands and engage students in fun and meaningful ways to complement regular classroom instruction.

Our process begins with communicating with parents and teachers to determine subject assessments or our own assessments. We then diagnose student needs using existing district assessments or our own assessments. We use these assessment results, along with parent and teacher feedback, to create 2 to 3 reading goals for the Student Learning Plan. Our reading curriculum correlates with the Georgia Performance Standards and has helped students improve their grades and performance on state tests. We provide students with strategies that will help them achieve long-term success. By using teacher and peer modeling, graphic organizers, and hands-on manipulatives, students with unique learning needs will benefit from our individualized approach.

To ensure student safety, the computers are loaded with security software embedded in the operating system only allowing students to access the Educate Online program until they complete their tutoring. Students typically take two to four 60 minute sessions each week. Using headset and computer, they will be taught by a live instructor.
All sessions take place in the safety and convenience of each student's home - eliminating the need for transportation.

Students take an assessment test at the beginning of the Educate Online program to provide a baseline for determining an individualized learning plan. A Prescription Monitor reviews each plan to ensure that the skills are matched up properly and the curriculum is appropriate for that student. The plan presents content areas where the student is struggling, specific skills or strategies needed and examples of skills or strategies in use. Educate Online is able to serve ELL, special education, and disabled students given their ability to perform the necessary computer related functions.

Program Summary
Education & Guidance Services (EGS) has been providing the supplementary educational needs of the students of West Central Georgia for sixteen years. We are a SACS/CASI accredited special-purpose school and have been providing tutorial support for the NCLB program from its very first day. More than fifty dedicated, certified educators make up our team. Teachers are available, by appointment only, seven days each week. As educators, we all enjoy the delight in watching young people rekindle their love of learning. Our success for all students utilizes the one-on-one expertise of the tutor, skill-appropriate written material – not computers – to strengthen the student’s skill base, academic self-confidence, and classroom achievement. Students are given a thorough, initial diagnostic session involving math, reading, and language arts skills. The results are reviewed with the parent, student, and tutor; a plan of action is designed with goals proposed and tutorial activities planned using educational activities appropriate for the student’s needs. It is expected that the student will attend all scheduled (mutually agreed upon) sessions and will do follow-up reinforcement work at home between sessions. Most students meet with their tutor once or twice each week for one hour and most students watch their grades, standardized test results, and the CRCT or GHSGT scores really climb. Our approach with each student includes a knowledge that all students: have a special learning style, can achieve a delight in learning, can set and reach meaningful academic goals.

Program Summary
In 2002, in an effort to reach out and accelerate the achievement of at-risk students, the GFCDC established an educational remedial program to teach, mentor, and tutor elementary school children living in poverty, within the Metro Atlanta Public School System. Our tutorial services are interactive and focus on the core academic subjects of Reading, Mathematics, and Language Arts for grades 1 through 12. Our instruction will emphasize skills to help all students achieve school success and pass promotional test objectives that the state requires. Certified teachers and highly qualified tutors will work with students on a one-on-one basis and in small group settings to ensure student success. Our program offers personalized student learning plans, innovative and unique techniques to reach students, access to computer based learning, comprehensive assessments, weekly and monthly progress reports to parents and teachers, on-going evaluations, and nutritional snacks. Tutorial services will be held at the Greenforest-McCalep Academic Center which is convenient, safe, and conducive to learning. The tutorial schedule includes a Saturday, three-hour tutoring session from 9 a.m. until 12 noon. Our tutorial instruction and educational materials are consistent with Georgia Performance Standards as well as the National Reading Panel (NPR) and the National Council of Mathematics. They are high quality and based on the most current knowledge of what promotes student success. Our instructional techniques have been successful in helping students at a low-achieving Metro-Atlanta school pass the CRCT (standardized test) that resulted in the school being removed from the list of schools not making the state’s Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). The Green Forest CDC was first approved as an SES provider for the 2003-2004 school year. We are currently completing our fourth year of service to students of Atlanta, Clayton, DeKalb, and Fulton County School Systems.

Program Summary
KnowledgePoints provides individualized tutoring services in the core learning skills of reading and math to grades K through 12. Our process involves a battery of tests to identify a student's weaknesses, the design of an academic cirriculum for that student, and the delivery of tutoring services by state certified teachers.

KnowledgePoints uses educational materials from the leading publishers in the U.S., including McGraw-Hill. Tutoring sessions last 1 to 2 hours in a highly interactive session where the student works closely with the tutor. A session consists of 4 to 8 activities designed at the skill and age level of the student. This means immediate success as the student learns. A motivational system insures a student's ongoing interest and participation. KnowledgePoints has been tutoring for 5 years in the Atlanta area and has been qualified for SES services for 3 years. Our results show growth of one and a half years in reading and two years in math during the initial 40 hours of tutoring!

Program Summary
New Generation Academy (NGA) was founded on the principle, "All children can learn if given the right tools and opportunity."
While there are many educational tools available, NGA has chosen the Jamestown Reading Navigator (JRN) program. Although this program is a reading program we incorporate reading in other areas, with an emphasis on reading math. Many math students have an underlying reading problem that inhibits their ability to learn math concepts. The JRN curriculum has shown remarkable success in engaging reluctant and/or struggling readers. JRN uses high-interest materials, current events, and bold graphics, along with cutting edge technology to appeal to students.
NGA believes the student's ability to comprehend and read on grade level are important components of his/her academic success. Studies show good readers make better history, language arts, science, and especially math students. The JRN curriculum applies this
philosophy in the "reading across curriculum" technique which is prevalent throughout the material. NGA also believes that
every child is unique. Students who attend NGA are individually assessed and a customized academic plan is implemented for
each student. A self-paced curriculum that incorporates one-on-one tutoring with supplemental group activities is used. NGA
has a proven track record of significantly improving student academic performance. Many students who completed the
program have gone on to receive various scholarships including the HOPE Scholarship. In addition to our dedication to each
student, we credit our students' achievements to the commitment to the program and parent support. We welcome the
opportunity to work with you in helping your student pursue academic success. Specific tutoring times will be worked out
between parents and tutor, however, your child's success will require that we meet at least 2 to 3 times per week with sessions
lasting 1 to 2 hours.

English Language Learners and those with special needs who are mainstreamed during the regular school day are also very welcome to join our progam, and we give careful attention to meeting their needs. We attach high importance to collaborating with the class teacher so that tutoring is relevant to each student's studies. In addition to collecting student data, we also pre-test to target the very specific areas in need of improvement. We consult each parent and present the program for their approval before starting into tutoring. Students and parents are also given the choice of different schedules, including weekday and weekend options. Tutoring can take place at the school, community facility or in the home. Our multilingual staff are available at any time through our toll-free line, and monthly progress reports to parents can be sent in English, Spanish or Haitian-Creole. We are honored to be one of the Georgia providers once again in 2010-11 and to be partners with students, parents and the schools in our NLL Success Teams.

Program Summary
Phyl ‘s Academy Preparatory services are as follows: Summer Tutorial, After-School Tutorial, and In-School Individualized Tutorial. These programs have been offered successfully for the past 20 years and have helped low performing students that were failing.
We will pre-test using the assessment tools that are part of the computer based software curriculum.
The length of the tutoring session will be one hour and the tutorial sessions will be held twice per week for 15 weeks per student.
We will utilize the TEACH method for direct instruction of identified skill needs. Each identified skill will be pre-taught by the tutor and then reinforcement of the skill will be turned over to the computer-based software. Tutoring sessions will be tailored to each student’s academic level and needs as the curriculum (Study Island) parallels the Georgia Performance Standards.
The ISP will be for the identifiable student area of weakness. We will utilize school reports, the pre-test, and any other needed batteries that may help to indicate what those weaknesses are. These goals will be translated into short term objectives that will enable us to create a timeline. We will use our own local facility, a school with a computer lab, media center, classrooms, and playgrounds and a church school facility. We will use a computer-based software system called Study Island, a research-based program that parallels the Georgia Performance Standards and CRCT exams in the areas of reading, language arts, and math for K-6th grade. This will be used along with appropriate visuals and manipulative which will help to reinforce taught concepts.

Progress charts will be maintained for each participant and will be analyzed by regular, special ed, and SES teachers to determine the interventions needed to help students stay on track with the regular curriculum. When students complete instruction within a benchmark, they will be tested again for mastery using OAS.

Through mastery learning we remediate skill gaps; through personalized lesson plans, we enhance academic achievement and increase confidence. The tests administered depend on the type of program necessary for supplementing academic achievement in reading, math, or language arts. These tests include word analysis testing, California Achievement testing, the Gray Oral Reading Test, and a receptive/expressive vocabulary assessment. Each student's program includes generalized long term goals as well as specific short term goals that directly align with the current Georgia Performance Standards. All instructional materials are provided at the teaching facility. In addition to the diagnostic testing, a progress test is administered at the conclusion of the supplemental program. A standard tutoring session is one to two hours in length. Students have the option to attend one or two days per week. The teaching schedule is Monday-Thursday, 4:00-7:00 pm, and Saturday, 9:30-1:30 pm. The facility is located at 3312 Northside Dr., A-115, Macon, GA.

Each student has their own individualized program which is updated daily by a Director of Education to determine mastery of assigned skills and assignment of more advanced skills. We meet with parents and teachers, if requested, throughout the program to share progress. Students typically attend 2-4 hours a week selecting instruction times from 3:30-8:30 p.m. Monday-Friday or Saturday/Sundays 3:30-6:30 p.m. Our center at 229 Furys Ferry Road, Unit 119 provides a positive, professional, motivational environment where each student has our individual attention.

Program Summary
The Sylvan NCLB program is the same program advertised on television. Sylvan Learning Centers are conveniently located in Clayton County, Fayetteville, Stockbridge, Oakwood, Peachtree City and Cumming. For more information and directions visit www.educate.com or call 770-684-0861.
Sylvan has been a SES provider in Georgia since 2003 and has helped over 1000 NCLB students. NCLB students participate in the same instruction sessions as all other Sylvan students. No Child Left Behind students have averaged ¾ of a grade level increase on the California Achievement Test over their three months in the Sylvan Reading or Math programs. Our goal is to develop students’ academic skills so they can become confident, independent learners.
Instruction is done at local Sylvan Centers so that all of the Sylvan learning materials, textbooks, and computer programs are available. The student teacher ratio is typically three students to one teacher. Students attend Sylvan two times each week for 1 or 2 hours depending on their age. The centers are open for instruction Monday through Thursday from 3:30 to 7:30 PM and on Saturdays from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM.
The first step is an individually administered diagnostic assessment to pinpoint skill gaps. These skill gaps form the educational prescription individually tailored to meet your child’s needs. Each student has a unique lesson plan that is updated after each hour of instruction. The Sylvan educational prescription is linked to the Georgia Performance Standards so instruction impacts students’ performance in Georgia classrooms. Sylvan teaches to mastery - we do not go on to a new skill until the student has mastered the previous skill. We provide written monthly reports to parents and classroom teachers on student progress in mastering specific skills.

We operate from the after school hours of 2:30pm-8:30pm as well as on weekends and during the summer. After administering a diagnostic assessment, our instructors will analyze your child’s results, and create an individualized student plan specifically for your child. This plan will identify specific standards for your child to master. Instruction is highly monitored and feedback is given immediately. Progress is checked frequently and consistently to assure that students are being challenged at their highest levels. Our tutors are highly qualified and our program has a proven track record for increasing the academic achievement of students in low performing schools.
