Mission
Our goal is to assist students in becoming independent learners. Strengthening subject comprehension promotes personal growth. We aim to put students in charge of their learning process. By simplifying the learning environment through one-on-one tutoring, our instructors help students build academic skills and assist them in areas where they struggle. Educational guidance helps students understand theoretical concepts and succeed honestly, thus reinforcing healthy study habits.
The elementary stages of education are the foundation that prepares children for fundamental skills and knowledge concepts. For this reason, students must receive adequate support to navigate academic barriers to prepare them for middle and secondary education. In addition, no matter their financial situation, every child should have equal opportunities for academic support. Therefore, for the convenience and well-being of our students, all tutoring sessions are based online.
​
We understand that only some students will be suitable candidates for online tutoring, so we ask that parents review our procedures before submitting an application to our office for review. Parents interested in their child becoming involved should review the program's guidelines, which can be found under the "Prospective Students" tab, in addition to the "Eligibility" criteria, to determine if their child is eligible to participate in the program. After all proper documentation has been verified and received, parents will receive an email on proceeding with lessons.
Our Motto
In each child lies a glow or light of its own. Although seemingly faint at first, these small glistens can turn into bright stars if given enough encouragement and support. The Glisteners Foundation holds itself up to allowing all children to realize the underlying strengths that can transform them into the greatest versions of themselves. At The Glisteners Foundation, we make it our priority to help every child succeed.
Dream, strive, believe and achieve--the four main fundamentals of The Glisteners Foundation.
