Lindita P. Marc is tutoring my 8th grade son in ELA.
My son is a good student but shows difficulty in putting together an well developed essay. I have asked Marc to help my son with this particular topic.
I feel that my son is very comfortable working with Marc and is understanding the directions and suggestions that Marc is giving him. Marc is very patient and flexible. Amy H. Mike is very helpful to prepare my child for the state ELA exam and he also offers much more beyond that. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to writing. He is great at explaining things and he took the time to understand my child's individual questions.
It was also helpful to have a real conversation not just read a textbook so my child could really understand the concepts. Highly recommend. Carla P. My son was having a very hard time with comprehension in school and because of this he was not successful in his ELA state exam last year and he had to repeat 4th grade.
I tried numerous tutors and none seems to help as much as Ms. She helped him to see where he was going wrong with reading and understanding what was read so that it would be much easier to answer question that was asked in each story.

During the Chancellor's webinar, one parent asked why the DOE was putting the Common Core material in the tests this year—why not wait a full year before assessing them on the brand-new material? The Chancellor replied, "We cannot wait to raise our standards," illustrating that his team sees making the tests harder as raising the standard, rather than letting classroom instruction be the measure.
I suspect most educators don't consider months of test prep as raising the standards of education. Even some who originally lauded the Common Core are now turning a more skeptical eye toward the assessment-based educational reform. But as much as we may hate the high-stakes nature of the New York State Assessments, kids have to take them. So my goal here is to help parents navigate the situation our children are facing today. We can call for policy change, but in the meantime, our kids are dealing with these new tests now.
As parents, we need to advocate for our children while staying cool and not increasing their anxiety over the tests.
It's tricky because, like everything having to do with kids, the answer really depends on the specific child. I would like to say that test prep shouldn't be necessary. If students are doing well in school and have mastered the material, they should do well on the test. It should be a tool to help parents and teachers see where children are struggling so they can help them improve their classroom work, which will then lead to better test scores.
However, it's not always that simple. Kids test differently, just as they learn differently.
