Better Grades Next Time: Club Z! Aims to Boost Report Cards and Leave No Children or Subjects Behind in Southwestern Pennsylvania

New Club Z! branch serves ADHD and high functioning Autistic Spectrum children as well as offering standard tutoring services to students of all ages and abilities

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 17, 2010 — One-on-one tutoring can make an enormous difference to any struggling child, and this kind of undivided attention is even more important when a student is already dealing with a condition such as ADHD or mild autism. Now these children and other Pennsylvania students of all ability levels will have a better chance at obtaining the academic support they need with the opening of a new Club Z! Tutoring Services branch in the area. And not a moment too soon: with many students nationwide having recently received their first report card of the academic year, the opening of a new tutoring franchise location is likely to be especially welcome to area parents.

Club Z! is North America's largest one-on-one in-home tutoring program, and the branch's new Area Directors, a local couple, both bring vast entrepreneurial and business acumen to their new endeavor. Their combined experience includes financial management, improving performance at nonprofit organizations, academic institutions, and small business environments, as well as pediatric sales and marketing — with special expertise in working with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autistic Spectrum Disorder patient populations. This includes having worked directly with school districts and special education departments, experience that will prove invaluable in meeting the needs of Club Z!'s students, parents, and tutors.

While serving ADHD and autistic children will be one specialty of the new branch, Club Z!'s mission is to provide tutoring to students of all abilities and age levels. Focusing on special needs kids will serve an unmet need in the community, but will not preclude working with other students. All will be served, and indeed, educational research shows that most students benefit from the type of individual attention that is sadly all but impossible in standard classroom settings.

Club Z! has an excellent 15-year reputation, resulting in hundreds of thousands of happy clients, and supportive tutoring methods are key factors in the franchise's high success rate. Students not only meet individually with their tutors, but meetings take place in the privacy of their own homes, where students feel comfortable and distractions are minimized. Scheduling is flexible and parent-friendly, and tutors meet with parents after each session to consult on their child's progress. Club Z! tutors are highly trained and pre-screened, and can provide instruction in any subject needed, from basic math and reading, to core academic subjects, to standardized test preparation.

The location's new Area Directors have lived in Western Pennsylvania all their lives and are deeply committed to serving local children. With a daughter, niece, brother-in-law, and several friends teaching in the area, the couple's interest in helping Pennsylvania children toward lifelong academic success is not merely professional, but personal as well.

The new Club Z! branch will serve the Southwestern Pennsylvania suburbs, including the Pittsburgh area, Sewickley, Bridgeville, Freedom, Beaver, McDonald, Oakdale, Allison Park, Hampton, and surrounding areas. In honor of its grand opening, registration fees have been waived for all new clients, making tutoring an even more affordable option for many families. For additional information about Club Z!
