Bergen County owners and area directors Richard and Susan Marton's new Club Z! In-Home Tutoring Services branch will provide one-on-one tutoring to help kids catch up and pull ahead
HACKENSACK, N.J., Dec. 16, 2011 — With the school year approaching its halfway point, many parents are beginning to realize that their children's struggles can no longer be attributed to the difficulties of getting used to a new teacher or new subject material – and whatever the nature of the problem, extra parental injunctions to study harder are not always enough. Furthermore, most teachers are already dealing with crowded classrooms and limited resources, and are simply unable to provide the kind of individual attention needed to determine and deal with each specific child's needs. For these students, one-on-one tutoring can provide not only the assistance required to overcome specific challenges and hurdles, but a lifeline back onto solid academic ground – enabling a struggling child to better face the tougher material ahead, and even providing them with the confidence to work harder toward reaching their own scholastic potential.
Richard and Susan Marton, lifelong Bergen County residents, had been serving their local community for over 25 years in their previous professions, but, as parents themselves, they knew they also wanted to make more of a difference within the education industry. "My wife was a legal assistant for over ten years," Mr. Marton states, "and I am a licensed home inspector, ensuring that safety and health requirements are met so that people can live and raise their families in a safe environment. However, as parents, we know the importance of a proper education." By owning and operating their own Club Z! In-Home Tutoring Services branch, the Martons aim to improve the quality of the area's tutoring services and offer a resource that will benefit students, parents, and teachers alike.
As North America's largest one-on-one in-home tutoring program, with an excellent 15-year reputation and hundreds of thousands of happy clients nationwide, Club Z! is well-respected and well-loved for its supportive tutoring style and high success rates. The security and familiarity of the home environment allow many children to concentrate more easily and help to eliminate distractions – ultimately building their study skills and boosting academic confidence. Meanwhile, the curriculum is centered around the child's own school curriculum whenever possible, with supplemental material only as needed, to avoid overwhelming a student who may already be behind. This helps struggling students to catch up to grade level, while students who are ready for inspiration and extra challenges are able to gain a competitive edge.
Club Z! offers additional benefits that parents will appreciate, notes Mr. Marton. Along with the convenience of flexibly scheduled, in-home sessions, parents are able to keep an eye on progress via regular updates after every tutoring appointment, as well as to witness first-hand that their child is getting the top quality individual attention they need and deserve.
Tutors are highly trained experts in their subjects, and tutoring is available to students of all age levels and abilities and in all academic areas – ranging from basic math and reading, to core academic subjects, to study and organizational skills, to preparation for standardized tests such as the SAT and ACT.
The Martons are enthusiastic about the benefits the new Bergen County Club Z! branch will bring to their local community. "We want to help children and young adults who are struggling to find their way back to the top," says Mr. Marton. "We know we can make a difference."
In honor of the Bergen County Club Z! grand opening, registration fees have been waived for all new clients. For additional information about Club Z! In-Home Tutoring Services, please visit http://www.clubztutoring.com/tutornetwork or call 201-265-1899.
