About Us
We believe in advancing students' core and traditional educational courses, including the study of humanities, mathematics, sciences and a variety of electives that prepare our students for higher education in universities and colleges. We believe in self-paced, individualized programs that meet the unique learning styles of students in today's highly advanced, modern, technological world where flexibility within a structured environment is paramount. Critical thinking, study and organizational skills, and test-taking strategies are important components to our program, as well as the incorporation of expository writing and logical reasoning exercises and courses that stimulate cognitive functions. PTS's tutors utilize the Socratic method of instruction to enhance the educational experience.
We lead by example, proving ourselves to be compassionate, unpretentious human beings who try to reach our intellectual and personal potentials with integrity and clarity. We posture ourselves to be non-judgmental towards our students and others, and expect that those with whom we work will do the same.
We believe in positive reinforcement for both behavior and academic performance. Our students and tutors are expected to adhere to the following rules:
- You must be prepared and willing to work and to study.
- You may not receive or give unauthorized assistance on lessons or exams.
- You cannot lie, steal, or gossip.
- We must all show respect towards each other.
We greatly value the educational process and experience, and therefore, believe that educators must be offered continued education, training and recognition. We support our community of educators and administrators with constant communication and constructive feedback.
