How to get better grades for kids?
So, what is the solution? Ofcourse, the only way to get them back on track is to provide additional educational support and also mental help to keep them calm, and prepare for the next school year. The challenging part is also for kids moving from Elem to Middle, and Middle to High school as that transition has been remote for many of them and will be challenging if they go to the next level unprepared and nervous. Teachers and Schools have done their part. As a parent, its now our responsibility to help the kids bridge that gap. It can be challenging for working couple to take out time from their day to help kids with school work and learning, when they would rather spend quality time having fun with the family.
Home Academy USA comes to the rescue, with their affordable, unique and engaging model for kids of all ages and grades.
One of the solutions that Home Academy USA has come up with is to limit the number of students in their group classes to 4. This gives enough time for the teacher to focus on each and every student – whereas in the Public school online classes, a teacher has 15 students and can’t cater to every student’s needs.
The Summer Camps are 8 weeks long, lasting 1 month duration. Each summer camp has a competition that will give kids an opportunity to showcase their learning and win prizes at the end in the form of Gift Cards and Online goodies.
Here are some of the highlights of Home Academy USA’s Affordable Summer Camps for Kids grade 1 thru 9.
