The Results are In Success at the Stretch Academy

The Results are In Success at the Stretch Academy We here at the Tutorfair Foundation and Stretch Academy have just received some outstanding news that had to be shared. A huge part of why the Tutorfair Foundation and Stretch Academy help bring high quality tuition to inner city schools is because it helps close the education gap between low and high income families. Wilbury Primary School is just one such example of this gap. Over the past 20 years only one student from Wilbury primary has progressed on to a selective school. As of today, four (four!) students from Stretch Academy's 2014  cohort were accepted to selective schools, with one winning a full scholarship to the local independent. The work done by Wilbury staff and Tutorfair volunteers really does make a huge difference. We can't thank you all enough for your incredible support. The Tutorfair Foundation promises that for every child who pays, we give free tutoring to a child who can't. To learn more, check out  our Foundation Programs  or  get involved  today!

Obviously, if you think that learning English over Skype is a good idea, you probably spend a little time in front of your computer every day.So here are some common words and phrases used by English speaking techies, as well as some blogs, podcasts and other resources.Geeks, Freaks and Techies:In English, we often use Techies (sounds like teckies) and Geeks to describe people that are really into technology. Freaks is an English word Ive heard used in other countries to describe the same thing, but oddly, Ive never heard it used in the United States.You might be a geek if you: Use Linux and Ubuntu. Enjoy programming, hacking, or building your own computers. Frequently stay up past 2 am sitting in front of your computer, without realizing it. Play World of Warcraft, Starcraft or other Blizzard games.You might be a techie if you: Use Mac OS, and own a iMac, MacBook, iPod, iPad and iPhone. Have a jacket with special pockets for all your phones, mp3 players and other gadgets (see definition of gadgets below).

This includes mp3 players, smart phones and tablet computers.English Resources for Geeks and Techies:There are many popular blogs and podcasts that are great for both keeping up on technology news and practicing your English.

5 Best Middle Schools in Fort Worth Middle school is a period of time where some of the biggest changes in a child’s life occurs. 6th through 8th grade are the transition from being a child to becoming a teenager, and it is in these formative years that a superb education is vital.After researching the best middle schools in Fort Worth we now have the concrete proof just how great they are. For our first ranking in our school district series, we’ll show you how we calculated the Texas Education Agency’s metrics from the most recent report (2014) to rank each school that met their standards. While the TEA Index is pretty comprehensive, Frog Tutoring decided to evaluate a couple additional factors in the study we found. The following methodology was used in calculation:STAAR Expectations (48%): When taking the STAAR test into consideration, we look at the percentage of students who met or exceeded the expectations of the test in a given year.TEA Index (48%): We utilized the Texas Education Agency’s 4 areas of aca demic excellence, which consist of Student Achievement, Student Progress, Closing Performance Gaps, and Postsecondary Readiness.Class Size (2%): Student-to-teacher ratio is important for an individual’s learning, so we took this into consideration.Online Reviews (2%): We have weighted each school’s popularity score based on Facebook reviews, Greatschools.org reviews, and K12.Niche.org reviews.If you’d like to see a more in-depth look at the TEA’s metrics for accountability standards, please click here.

First, we made an extensive spreadsheet (which you can take a look at for yourself here), and collected all of the data that we needed for our results. Then we converted each factor into a percentage and multiplied that number by the percentage of how much it’s worth in our ranking system. Let’s look at an example:McLean Middle School’s TEA Index ranking is 230/400.230 / 400 = 58%Since this is 22% of our total, we used the percentage above to measure how much it’s worth in our ranking system. Which in this case is 22% of the total score.58 x .22 = 12.76%If you’d like to know more about this process, please contact our coordinator, Judith, at judith@frogtutoring.com.
