Gr 1-5 All-Inclusive Afterschool Program
Any tutor can tell someone they spelled “victorious” wrong or misinterpreted a word problem, but at Berkeley we teach students how to learn better. Rather than focusing on speed and perfection, our philosophy guides students to take responsibility for their own learning goals, structure their own study time, and take advantage of a variety of resources. With our extremely long-term vision, we nurture children so they will be accountable and resourceful in junior high and beyond.
Our Student Philosophy
-
Homework supervision & corrections with one-on-one instruction when time permits
-
Berkeley has over 60 Chromebooks available for students to check out and do research for school projects & online homework
-
We also create accounts for different web-based Reading, Math & Science programs which are available to students after homework is completed and checked
-
We provide weekly common core test-prep materials for Math, English Language Arts & Reading Comprehension
-
Berkeley includes weekly Chinese & Spanish language classes in it's afterschool program
-
Students enjoy fresh air in our large outdoor play area, complete with a basketball hoop, tetherball poles, and wallball
-
On Fridays, most students do not have homework, so students will join Berkeley's Friday Clubs!
-
Know that your child has safely arrived at Berkeley with our Electronic Sign-In & Out system that sends real-time notifications to you
