4. Well, Not Necessarily…
Consider the downsides of the traditional classroom:
 Teachers monopolize the learning process
 Students often rely on rote memorization to learn
key concepts
 Threats of punishment might be used as
“motivation”
 Class activity is limited or minimal
 Lessons answer the “what,” but not the
“why”
 Lack of creativity

5. The Cold, Hard Facts
 If you compare U.S. student achievement to that of students worldwide, the
results are staggering:
 According to a 2012 report from the Harvard Program on Education Policy and
Government that explored U.S. and international trends in student performance, the
U.S. fell directly in the middle of the countries studied. Among the top performing
countries? Hong Kong, Singapore, and Korea.
 The U.S. also falls close to the middle of the 65 nations surveyed in a study by the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development that focuses on test
scores.

6. What makes U.S. students’
international peers more
successful?

7. Could One-to-One Tutoring
Improve Academic Performance?
• Supplemental tutoring is a cultural norm in Asian countries, and
many students benefit from the opportunity.

8. Revered Education Psychologist
Benjamin Bloom Thought So
The University of Chicago professor’s research
revealed that students who received
supplemental, one-to-one tutoring performed
better than 98 percent of their peers in the same
traditional classroom.

9. Just What is it About
Tutoring that Leads to
Success?
Bloom said it is “the constant feedback, correction, and
reinforcement in one-to-one tutoring” relationships.

other positive attributes to
