Something to Consider:

What is the single most important factor affecting learning ?

The single most important factor that affects learning is the amount of “Time on Task” a student invests.  “Time on Task” is the ability to do what you need to do in order to assimilate the knowledge or skill into accessible information for later on. We address this issue by using clearly defined expectations both behaviorally and skill wise and by providing personal training to increase independence strategies such as knowing how and where to get an answer.
