Reinforcement                                                                                                       

Most children require three study methods or resources to retain

the highest percentage of information. As part of our Integrated

Learning model, BAES provides reinforcement tools to increase

retention of the course material and advance the learning process.  

From hands-on interactive to reference materials to practice

exams, the learning experience is enhanced by learning guides.

Students receive a learning guide to use as an at-a-glance review

tool to outline the main concepts and skills presented in the

learning course. This guide is a condensed hard-copy booklet of the

corresponding course.

Mastery                                                                                               top                          

Not only do our students receive study tools required for

learning, but also the supplemental support services to help

complete and master the learning cycle. Our support resources are

a valuable extension of our reinforcement tools.  We provide

personal attention to every student. With our "self-motivated-

learning" approach students are equipped to tackle every school

assignment with confidence upon mastery of study skills.

                                                   

Validation                                                                                

Track the progress and results of the learning through the customized reports and capabilities of the learning system.  In the validation process, the student can identify the acquired knowledge, areas requiring improvement, and the value of the skills gained. Through course evaluations, post-class assessments and surveys, students know they are achieving their desired learning goals.  Students can take a post-assessment to identify acquired and retained knowledge.                                                                                            top

                                                                    

Reading Program
