Build students’ confidence and competence with tutoring strategies that spark meaningful, accelerated learning. Tutoring is much more than telling students information. Effective tutoring begins with the strong and caring relationship a tutor establishes with a learner to build trust, fuel motivation, and drive critical learning. How Tutoring Works distills the complexity of strategic moves effective tutors make to build students’ confidence and competence. Harnessing decades of Visible Learning® research, this easy to read, eye-opening guide details the six essential components of any effective tutoring intervention—establishing a relationship and credibility, addressing student confidence and challenges, setting shared goals, helping a student learn how to learn, teaching and learning content, and establishing a habit of deliberate practice. Indispensable for any educator who intervenes with students, this rich resource includes: Examples of impactful tutoring conversations, including what to say and what not to say when building a relationship with a learner. Specific approaches to use when establishing credibility, addressing challenges to learning, leveraging the relevance of knowledge, setting goals, and ensuring practice. Learning strategies, with effect size, for teaching and learning content, including specific strategies for improving reading, writing, and mathematics. Tips and tools for helping students develop powerful cognitive, metacognitive, and affective study skills. Resources and advice for establishing an effective and transformational tutoring program. Done well, tutoring can repair a student’s damaged relationship to learning, address unrealized potential, and alter the course of a young person’s life. A strong and nurturing relationship between tutor and learner is key.

The system won’t do it for us. But we have each other. In The Imperfect and Unfinished Math Teacher: A Journey to Reclaim Our Professional Growth, master storyteller Chase Orton offers a vulnerable and courageous grassroots guide that leads K-12 math teachers through a journey to cultivate a more equitable, inclusive, and cohesive culture of professionalism for themselves...what he calls professional flourishment. The book builds from two bold premises. First, that as educators, we are all naturally imperfect and unfinished, and growth should be our constant goal. Second, that the last 40 years of top-down PD efforts in mathematics have rarely supplied teachers with what they need to equitably grow their practice and foster classrooms that are likewise empowered, inclusive, and cohesive. With gentle humanity, this book inspires teachers to break down silos, observe each others’ classrooms, interrogate their own biases, and put students at the center of everything they do in the math classroom. This book: Weaves raw and authentic stories—both personal and those from other educators—into a relatable and validating narrative Offers interactive opportunities to self-reflect, build relationships, seek new vantage on our teaching by observing others’ classrooms and students, and share and listen to other’s stories and experiences Asks teachers to give and accept grace as they work collaboratively to better themselves and the system from within, so that they can truly serve each of their students authentically and equitably Implementing the beliefs and actions in this book will position teachers to become more active partners in each other’s professional growth so that they can navigate the obstacles in their professional landscape with renewed focus and a greater sense of individual and collective efficacy. It equips teachers—and by extension, their students—to chart their own course and author their own equitable and joyful mathematical and professional stories.

This book is designed to help students in grades 8 to 11 master the Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematics Achievement sections on the Upper Level Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE). Over the years, the team at Manhattan Tutors found that students are understandably overwhelmed by the enormous amount of information contained in most test prep books. The math sections tend to be particularly intimidating for students who are preparing for the test. The Manhattan Tutors Guide to the Upper Level ISEE: Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematics Achievement was written with you - the student - in mind. Our streamlined guide does not include unnecessary background material, and it is designed to provide students with a tailored study plan that they can use to focus their preparation and minimize the amount of time they need to get ready for the ISEE. Unlike other books, our guide focuses on introducing the specific question types that have appeared on past ISEE exams and providing detailed explanations of the strategies and math fundamentals that are necessary to solve them. Future editions of the book will include a chapter on math fundamentals. Warmest regards, The Staff of Manhattan Tutors

How to Use This BookThis book is designed to help students in grades 4 and 5 master the Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematics Achievement sections of the Lower Level Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE). Over the years, the team at Manhattan Tutors has found that students are understandably overwhelmed by the enormous amount of information contained in most test prep books. The math sections tend to be particularly intimidating for students who are preparing for the test. The Manhattan Tutors Guide to the Lower Level ISEE: Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematics Achievement was written with students in mind. Our streamlined guide is designed to provide students with a tailored study plan that they can use to focus their preparation and minimize the amount of time they need to get ready for the ISEE. Here's your step-by-step guide for using this book: 1. With your student, read through the ISEE Math Strategies in Part II and complete the practice problems. 2. Have your student take the first practice test in Part V. Review the questions he or she answered incorrectly, and focus your remaining time on studying those question types and math fundamentals. 3. Six weeks before the real test, take the second practice test in Part V. Compare your student's results with those from the first practice test, and identify areas of improvement and areas he or she still needs to work on. 4. Four weeks before the real test, take the diagnostic test provided by the ERB. This test, What to Expect on the Lower Level ISEE, can be found at ERBLearn.org. 5. Remember: the ISEE is just one component of a comprehensive application. Schools consider a student's grades, extracurriculars, teacher recommendations, and personal essays, so try not to stress too much over the test! Warmest regards, The Staff of Manhattan Tutors
