Learning A Step Ahead at Tutoring Club

By | For kids | 2 Comments

The buzzing start of the school season is definitely in the air! With things like booklists, transportation arrangements, new uniforms, and school supplies to complete, moms and dads have definitely got a lot on their hands making sure that youngsters are all set and prepared for the year ahead.

Logistics and provisions aside however, we all know that the real challenge begins when that first bell rings. So if you’re either looking to equip your child academically, make school a little more fun or manageable, or even have him or her take a step ahead of the rest, it might be time to join the club… the Tutoring Club, that is!

Founded in the United States in 1991, Tutoring Club is a skills-based tutoring service for students at all levels of academic ability, from elementary through high school that offers personalized programs that help them either “catch up and keep up”, or to gain advantage over other students in their class by learning and retaining critical skills.

Unique to others in the private education industry, the Tutoring Club franchise is a parent’s dream as its successful, results-oriented approach enlists the most efficient use of advanced educational technologies combined with time-honored systems of instruction to test and identify areas of improvement, tutor, and track a child’s academic progress in three major areas: math, reading, and writing; all within comfortable, well-appointed facilities.

With thousands of children enrolled in its 222 branches around the world, it may very well be that the same number of happy and fulfilled parents can testify of the wonders that this effective, strategically planned methodology brings to the study table. Given the statistics, Tutoring Club furthermore prides itself on a low student-teacher ratio of 3:1 to ensure quality and immediate personal attention. It even guarantees that, within 32 hours of tutoring, a child’s skills will improve one full grade level.

 

Fourth year high school student Sam Mercado actually raised his grades from 78% to 89%!

 

“Well, as far as my son’s lessons are concerned, the tutors make it easy for him to understand, relates Mrs. Josephine Arcenas. “With their patience, they somehow give him the drive and motivation which I suppose contributes to his wanting to do well.”

Indeed, parents also attest to the importance of piquing an enthusiastic and inspired attitude towards studying. Take for example Mrs. Cynthia Tiu, who wanted to boost her daughter’s reading and writing. “I could see she had skills but didn’t know how to maximize them,” she says. “Now, after a couple of sessions at Tutoring Club, I see her doing her homework on her own with more ease and confidence.  She no longer waits for the tutor to help her out with her reports or reaction papers or ask for approval of the work she’s done!”

If that sounds like something you’d want to say yourself, try and see what Tutoring Club can do for you and your child this school year. As one more satisfied parent puts it, “if it enriches, enhances and encourages your children to the point of making them independent and confident learners, why wouldn’t you want to take that step?”

Bryan Flannery at Mamou

By | Foodie, Jaric Marketing Inc, Steaks | 4 Comments

Heart2Heart was so happy to go back to Mamou! And this time, we were honored to have Oye and Malou serve us and dine with us!!! Malou is so passionate about food and passion drives you to do great things!  Which explains why Mamou is so successful!  

She explained some of the dishes to me and she said that through her travels and her experiences in many restaurants all over the world, she tries to make her own version and shares them with everyone through her restaurant.

Peter Luger of the Philippines October 1, 2007 

James is making his rounds and asking the BEST chefs in the country to cook his steak for him!  So we asked Malou to cook a 52 day Dry Aged Porterhouse steak because he knew Malou is the Peter Luger of the Philippines 🙂 and only she can make it closest to the real thing

After having the starters, Malou took me with her to the kitchen and wow!  You cannot imagine the number of steaks and lobsters that came out of that kitchen that evening!  It was torture for me to smell and watch the dishes!!! but I was in heaven just “window eating” ( is there such a thing? )  🙂

bryanvisitsmamou-8.jpgdsc_5351.jpgmamoumeatmenu.jpg

One of their specialties!!  All the lobsters were reserved already that evening!  That is how popular they are!
