LEAP, Inc. is committed to delivering educational tools that teach learners how to learn any subject and master it. Founded by Barbara R. Primm, MA/MBA and Certified Center Director, she realized the best way to eliminate academic learning gaps is to incorporate a proven educational methodology called Study Technology. Applied Scholastics International™ educational programs utilize and teach study technology which produce routinely excellent results. It has been established repeatedly that these results can be replicated by students, parents, teachers, and business trainers from a wide range of educational and cultural backgrounds.
This technology enables students to understand the information learned, apply what they have studied, and retain these abilities throughout their lives.
Historically, it's believed overfilled class-sizes, economic disadvantages, and "learning disorders" are common in the classroom today and cause children not to learn well.
LEAP believes although these things are evident, there are three primary barriers that keep one from successfully studying a subject and mastering the information learned.
It is not attention deficit disorder, emotional problems, or stupidity at work that causes children not to learn well. It is the emotional or physical reaction a student "of any age" will experience when encountering one of these barriers to learning. Students fail to learn because no one has ever taught them how to learn, how to identify the barriers to learning, and how to overcome them.
Our learning center teaches children and adults how to learn and be successful at learning. Our facility is clean and quiet offering an environment that makes it easy to focus. We strive to create a stress free atmosphere by utilizing tutors who have been trained to identify these barriers and provide immediate tools that eliminate these barriers allowing the learner to continue their study.
Our tutoring program builds confidence, motivation, focus, and problem solving skills. Tutors share successful strategies with students so they can succeed on their own. Our friendly, warm, and enthusiastic tutors create a safe supportive atmosphere for all.
