Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Pinole District Curriculum
In the subject of Language Arts, the curriculum serves the broad goals of developing communication and literacy skills applicable to all other subjects. The goals of teaching strategies to comprehend main ideas and critical details, understanding the craft of literature, and the ability to integrate new ideas into prior knowledge are central goals. This is accomplished by asking students to conduct work that takes them into fiction, drama, poetry, memoir, editorials, and non-fiction in texts and their own writing.
In Science, students develop process-oriented learning and thinking skills through the investigation they do in Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and other advanced topics. Subjects such as Environmental Science and Technology courses are also offered and are guided by curriculum that emphasize the learning outcomes. However, it is the specific skills within each subject that accomplishes this goal by developing a base of learning strategies for each student.

Testimonials and Case Studies from Our Parents
SchoolTutoring Academy has played an important role in improving our son’s confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.

SchoolTutoring Academy has not only improved my son’s standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades. Test Prep Academy has not only improved my son’s standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades.
SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son’s math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son’s confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What’s particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.
