For the past several summers, Georgetown Learning Centers has helped students continue their learning process even though school is out for vacation. This summer, we continue to offer a variety of programs to ensure that your child is prepared for the upcoming school year. Whether a student needs to retake a class, get ahead in a subject area or review old material, GLC can provide the type of personalized attention and flexibile scheduling needed to make summer vacation both educational and enjoyable. SAT Success Classes A variety of class times allows students who may work or participate in extracurricular activities to take a class without disrupting their summer. Small class sizes benefit those students challenged by a crowded classroom environment. Studying for the SAT in the summer is a great way for students to get ready for the test without the typical school year distractions. Avoid compounding school year stress by getting SAT preparation done in the summer.   Personalized Bridge Programs For students who want to start the next school year on solid footing, a personalized Summer Bridge Program is a great option. With a customized plan, we can introduce students to the concepts they'll face next year in their tougher classes, or revisit the challenging concepts from previous courses. Our bridge programs can also be designed to help a student strengthen specific skill areas, such as reading comprehension or essay writing.   Math Camp (Charlottesville only) Want the ultimate math workout? Georgetown Learning Centers’ All-Stars Math Camp is a one-week enrichment program designed to help kids build important skills and explore new concepts. For rising 6th-9th graders, this is the perfect opportunity to boost confidence and have fun.  Each day is all about math: students have math lessons, engage in hands-on math activities, and investigate the real world application of math concepts. Emphasizing key topics like fractions, geometry, and data analysis, our full-time staff—all graduates from top schools—work closely with students to accelerate learning. This camp is perfect for kids who need to improve in targeted areas and get a head start on the next school year!   Reading & Writing Workshops (Great Falls only) At GLC, we understand that student success relies heavily on reading and writing skills and want to help our students sharpen their abilities in these areas.  Our Reading & Writing Workshop, designed for students in grades 8 through 10, is divided into two parts and covers the following concepts: Types of Reading, Reading Comprehension Practice, Approaching Tone & Main Idea, Types of Writing, Prewriting, Outlining, & Organizing, Revising & Editing Essays, Grammar Checklist for Editing Papers, Annotating, Paraphrasing & Summarizing, Vocabulary Building, and Eliminating Passive Voice in Writing.
