OUR MODEL
Our model is different from a traditional tutor. Rather than prioritizing academic content, our top priority is to support the development of study skills independence. If your child:
Struggles to initiate academic engagement
Struggles to sustain academic engagement
Struggles to prioritize academic tasks
Struggles with distraction
allow us to partner with you. We rely on a simple, yet highly effective model. VSC transforms the unsupervised student's home study space into a supervised study experience. We believe a skilled, encouraging adult delivering real time study skills feedback can create improved study outcomes. We dial down the distraction and help fix the leaks in your academic space.

OUR FEEDBACK
The Big 4 Study Skills Model is our unique, simple, and effective program which maximizes core study skills practices and helps build study skills independence.
We use the Big 4 Study Skills Model as our basis for student and parent feedback.
Student feedback is delivered at targeted intervals during each study appointment.
Parent feedback is delivered after each appointment via the A Post Game Report, a smart summary of your child's progress.

We are a group of educators, business leaders, and life long learners committed to creating a unique system of virtual study support. We offer an economical study skills service for students who need extra support at home.
