APPROACH
Our Vancouver tutoring approach helps students on their path to higher education. BASIRI tutors create a supportive and fun learning environment while training students to apply the information they learn to showcase their understanding.
Our Vancouver tutoring sessions place a significant emphasis on gaining and retaining a strong knowledge base in preparation for post secondary education. Our tutors use proven strategies to help their students achieve higher success in their academic courses.
BASIRI programs are designed to substantially increase students' output. We welcome you to contact our powerful team of academic experts who will advance your child's academic skills.
TESTING
Testing is critical to learning. The human brain learns through repetition as well as manipulation and analysis of the learned information. Testing is the best method to ensure content knowledge is learned, and, more importantly, the information can be manipulated and used by the learner.
At BASIRI, our Vancouver tutors administer customized tests to match the needs and learning styles of students, allowing them to effectively practice accessing and using what they learn. Our Vancouver tutoring programs ensure that students are prepared to tackle academic challenges in high school and beyond.
