It would be difficult to not notice the learning changes that have taken place over the last year due to COVID-19. Millions of students have had to learn online from home, which has posed some challenges. According to The Brookings Institution, during this time, student achievement was lower than pre-COVID-19 performance, and students showed lower growth in math in grades 3-8. This leaves many students and parents wondering how to finish the school year strong and be prepared for the next one to start. “We don’t even fully know the long-term effects yet that the last year has had on students,” explains David Florence, professor and founder of The Oxford Method, a community that offers tutoring services around the country. “However, students can finish strong, and feel prepared for the next school year. We are helping students to do that daily.” The Oxford Method is on a mission to help those students who have had their learning disrupted by the pandemic. Through its work, it helps students gain the skills needed to finish the year on top, and to feel fully prepared for the following year to begin. Its tutoring community helps to bridge the gap that the pandemic has created in the way students are being taught. It does this through relationship-based learning programs, which provide students with the knowledge they need, as well as the self-esteem required to succeed. There are five key areas that The Oxford Method focuses on, including gifted, special needs, traditional, and social actualization. The learning community is open to everyone, and ensures that people get the additional instruction and assistance they need. All subjects are covered, including science, technology, engineering, and math, as well as social sciences, business, political science, psychology, public speaking, and more. “Our community of teachers is helping many students to catch up, skill up, and feel ready to move forward with the next school year,” added Florence. “The pandemic may have put a damper on the way people learn this past year, but it doesn’t have to be a total loss. We are busy helping people tackle the issue and go on to thrive.” The Oxford Method has over 100 tutors around the country, covering all subject areas. It offers online tutoring, as well as in-person and in-classroom options. Its tutoring services are available 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. The Oxford Method works with its nonprofit, Social Actualization, Inc., by giving it 10% of all profits. The funds are used to provide free computers, high-speed internet, and instruction to underprivileged families in urban and rural America. Plus, 40% of the instructors are PhDs, 40% have a master’s degree, and 20% have only a bachelor’s degree. The Oxford Method believes that education is the great equalizer and the best gift you can give the next generation. Subject areas include science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), as well as business, social studies, psychology, English, history, public speaking, study methods, test taking, and more.
