We're Different
Unique Student Profile
Our tutors skillfully diagnose the challenges that your child faces in completing school tasks and coping with the school environment. This process will allow the tutor to design learning experiences with the goals of strengthen key reading, organizational and processing skills.
Educators, Too!
Our consultants work closely with school leaders to prescribe the right training to meet the school system’s ideal outcomes.
The Future Is Now
We use age-appropriate collaborative technology tools, such as Moodle and Google Hangouts, as well as social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, to enhance the learning experience and provide important feedback on the performance of your child or faculty.
The Zen Of Learning
Outside of reading, writing and study skills, one of our main focuses is to provide “mindfulness” experiences. This helps students relax, clear the mind, and cope with the pressures within the school setting.
We're In Your Neighborhood!
Our national competitors’ tutors don’t have the local knowledge of different schools, teaching experiences, or training of the Performance Learning staff.
Our consultants and tutors call the the Quad Cities their home, and are familiar with the local school systems, the students and the teachers.
