What to expect from a tutor
A basic tutor helps support learning. But the tutor guru takes it a few steps further. She assesses the student's strengths, coordinates and challenges learning styles and consistently reflects with the student about focus. Often children need added support because they have missed steps in the learning process that make it difficult to continue moving forward. Adrianna takes time to understand the learning style of the individual in order to fill in the blanks or discover what is causing the learning difficulty and lack of understanding.
Sky Blue is an uplifting story written by The Tutor Guru, about a boy grieving the loss of his dog, Honeybunny. The story teaches that the ones you love live on in your heart forever. Available on Amazon- https://smile.amazon.com/SKY-BLUE-Adrian-Voss/dp/0578319675/
A publicized report from the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) in 2018, identified that Metacognition was one of the most effective ways to support Learner Progress , and set parameters to help schools consider how to develop it in their learners. One of the fundamental goals of The Tutor Guru is to train the student to think more metacognitively- to have a critical awareness of one's own thinking and learning helps the student get to know the self and build strengths.
Creative Coaching assists students in cultivating their humanistic and artistic talents through the creative processes such as writing, visualizing, goal setting, affirmations, metacognition, and mindfulness. The Tutor Guru uses her own creative skills and teaching experience to inspire growth and self-empowerment in the individual with a focus on strengthening Mindset Skills through various creative techniques. Adrianna has been creating and selling her art for over 25 years.

Spark up your child's imagination and curiosity! Keep your child's mind active through reading, writing and art during the holidays! This is a great time to bridge the gap between the fall and spring semesters. Happy Learning!
Kids benefit from reading every day; it is not something they need a break from doing. It keeps their minds intellectually stimulated while making connections to their reality. A mix of nonfiction and fiction intermingled with relaxation and fun promotes school preparedness!
