Philosophy
Summit Understands: |
And so … |
|---|---|
| Every student has the ability to learn. |
All students have the ability to learn and be successful, even through each student may be different in the way they learn. Summit accommodates for these differences: programs are customized to fit each student according to learning style and any challenges; and Summit tutors adapt their teaching approach to fit each student. The net effect is that each student at Summit enjoys success as well as confidence in him or herself. |
| Every student has individual strengths. | Summit helps students realize and reinforce their unique abilities, while targeting and strengthening areas needing improvement. |
| Every student has a unique learning style. | Since no single system is optimal for all learners, Summit teachers adjust their teaching techniques to best fit each student. |
| Every student has a need for accountability. |
Summit helps students reach higher by striving for and achieving effective goals. Confidence blossoms when Summit students develop their accountability 'muscles' and then realize they can meet expectations |
| Every student has a desire to accomplish goals and feel good. | Celebrating student accomplishment generates enthusiasm which leads to more self-confidence. Summit celebrates success at every session. Our aim is to have each student as excited about school and learning as they are about their favourite sport or hobby |
| Every student needs self-confidence to succeed | Summit students celebrate successes every session. Summit tutors provide positive reinforcement to students throughout their lessons, helping them build confidence in their abilities. |
