Summer Tutoring in Greenwich, Fairfield County & Westchester

Effective strategies to maintain academic progress through one-on-one summer tutoring

As summer approaches, many students face the risk of losing academic skills—a phenomenon known as the “summer slide.”
Personalized summer tutoring offers a proven solution by providing targeted, one-on-one support that addresses individual learning needs and prevents summer learning loss.

What Is Summer Slide and How Does It Affect Students?

Summer slide refers to the loss of academic skills and knowledge that students experience during the summer break.
Research indicates that students can lose approximately one to two months of math skills and reading proficiency over the summer,
which can have long-term implications for their academic trajectory.

This learning loss is particularly pronounced among students with:

• Learning differences or ADHD
• Executive function challenges
• Gaps from the previous school year
• Upcoming transitions to middle school, high school, or college

How Personalized Summer Tutoring Prevents Summer Slide

One-on-One Individualized Instruction

Unlike group programs or summer camps, our summer tutoring is 100% personalized.
Each session is private and tailored to your child’s specific needs, learning style, and academic goals.
Our expert tutors work directly one-on-one with your student to:

• Address knowledge gaps from the previous school year
• Reinforce and maintain academic skills over the summer
• Get ahead on next year’s curriculum
• Build confidence in challenging subjects
• Develop strong study habits and executive function skills
• Work at their own pace without group distractions

Executive Function Coaching Integration

Our summer tutoring goes beyond academic content. We integrate executive function coaching into every session to help students strengthen:

• Time management and organization skills
• Planning and prioritization abilities
• Focus and attention control
• Self-regulation and emotional management
• Critical thinking and problem-solving

This comprehensive approach builds foundational skills that support long-term academic success, not just short-term content mastery.

Research-Based Methods That Work

Our tutoring approach is grounded in educational research and proven strategies.
We use evidence-based methods that create lasting learning—ensuring students not only retain knowledge over the summer but return to school confident and prepared.
