The difference is the combined experience and wisdom of two seasoned Principals/Educators who believe that children can enjoy academics and be successful learners when they are encouraged to work within their own learning style. We will work with your child according to their preferred style of learning, with the end goals being improved performance; study skills that produce successful outcomes;
and enthusiasm for learning. Many kids reach their personal best via a variety of methods! Kids have different strengths and interests; why not let them operate within the style that works best for them? TUTORING
Most students can benefit from the personal attention that we can provide. Whether your child is currently struggling with a particular subject, frustrated with the amount of effort required to keep up with homework, or wants to get ahead and excel, The Principal Difference works with you to achieve those goals. HOMEWORK ASSISTANCE
Working with The Principal Difference can be helpful when homework assignments become increasingly difficult or time consuming and parents feel unable to provide adequate help. It is easier for some students to take instruction and correction from someone they do not have emotional ties with. Working with The Principal Difference to develop study skills and focused attention will help him to gain self-confidence and develop a can-do spirit. HOMESCHOOL SUPPORT
The Principal Difference is an excellent resource for parents who homeschool their children. Many parents are very capable teachers, but may not have expertise in every subject. The Principal Difference can fill in the gaps and provide support for homeschooling parents. Debbie Baumgartner, is an experienced Director of Curriculum and can assist you with curriculum questions.
