Parent Appraisals
As a parent, I really enjoyed the program.
I have seen a change in my daughter's study habits as well as an increased interest
in her schoolwork.
This is a great program because I am not able to teach her English grammar skills.
This has caused her to become more responsible with her homework because she is now
able to complete it.
The tutor would engage my daughter by using different reaching methods.
This program benefits kids that are not meeting their full potential.
- Parent of 4th Grade Student
The program is a good help for children. It helps their self-esteem because they do better at school.
- Parent of 3rd Grade Student
They made a concerted effort to match the needs of my grandson to the qualification
of the tutor with great success.
The tutor is flexible, punctual and quite personable.
- Parent of 5th Grade Student
I am very pleased with the program for both my kids.
I have seen improvement in their reading and writing.
I do expect their reading and writing to extend their learning ability to a future of success.
- Parent of 4th & 5th Grade Student
The following is to give thanks for the time that was dedicated in teaching my child.
I really enjoyed the program and am seeing great improvement in my daughter's studies.
I have no complaints in regards to the staff.
It's a good program with good tutors.
If my other child were to need tutoring services in the future, I would choose this one
again and would recommend it to other parents.
I am grateful to have found this program in my path.
Thank you for the great patience in tutoring my daughter.
- Parent of 2nd Grade Student
At this time, I would like to let you know that I am very happy with your tutoring
program because my children are learning a lot.
The tutor that you assigned is excellent and we are seeing a lot of progress in the
time that he has been with my children.
The tutor is very knowledgeable in the tutoring of the subject.
He is very patient and tutors in a way that my children are never bored or tired during
the sessions.
My son has trouble with his speech, but thanks to this program he is now a much better reader
and is frequently reading just for leisure.
- Parent of 6th & 9th Grade Student
My daughter has shown great improvement in her Language class, as well as in her vocabulary.
She can identify the plot in stories and summarize them.
Thank you for the support given to my child.
- Parent of 7th Grade Student
I really liked the tutoring program because it helps the kids get better at the subject they
are having trouble with.
The tutor answers their questions and it's like having a teacher all to themselves.

Teacher Appraisals
TCCF's tutoring philosophy is based on engaging the parents and schools with the tutoring services
provided to the students.
Developing a community of learners for the student is imperative to the student's long-term academic success.
The following comments were submitted to TCCF from teachers in the Barstow and Perris School Districts.
Tutoring for these students took place from October 2006-January 2007.
-
One letter from a teacher of a 5th grade student receiving math tutoring, explained that her average
math exam score has improved from 43%-45% to 67%, and is now approaching a “proficient”
level in math.
-
One teacher's progress report from a 1st grade student enrolled in English language arts tutoring
reported “phenomenal” improvement and fluency.
-
The teacher's progress report from a 3rd grade student who received tutoring in Language Arts was
noted that she definitely saw improvement as the student's grades went up after tutoring.
-
A 4th grade student who received tutoring in Math, received the teacher's praise of improvement
in fractions as well as for her willingness to now help her classmates.
-
One teacher noted that her 7th grade student has had a notable change in attitude once he started
getting tutored.
His math grade has improved since receiving tutoring services.
-
Multiple progress reports from teachers indicated the same as the teacher of a 7th grade student
that received tutoring in Math: The tutoring has helped this student bring her grades up this unit.
The student is much more confident, asks a lot of questions and is now a very active learner.
