Strong teaching backgrounds and a comprehensive understanding of children s needs enable our tutors to develop learning skills, boost confidence, and enhance motivation.

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.

We pre test students to identify weaknesses and develop an instructional plan based on what they are expected to know for testing. Only after they have mastered one concept, do we move on to the next. Our average student showed a 93 point increase between their pre and posttest. Our Satisfaction Survey showed 100% of our students believe our tutoring improved their grades and 75% of parents would use our services again.
