A Different Kind of Tutoring

A Different Kind of TutoringThe biggest difference between tutoring in New York City's very own Garden Grove, CA (near the Orange County cities of Fullerton and Garden Grove) is that tutors in New York can only enroll in a city school district. There are several other differences, however. Some of these are technical differences, such as how one district determines a tutoring internship (is it a summer camp, and what is its length, etc.)Tutoring on the other hand, is the longest-standing course that I am aware of. It was introduced by the British government, which was an entirely different thing than it is now. As with tutoring in New York City, tutors in Garden Grove have many options available to them, and that's another difference.Gary English, the former principal at Garden Grove High School (now a charter school), found out about tutoring when he was a student there. When he had made it past eighth grade, English sent his son to a summer institute. It was in a rural area in Wash ington State, so they did not expect it to be easy.He remembers thinking that they should at least try tutoring, as it would help his son prepare for college. His son has been working in the tutoring program for the last three years, and English has never regretted sending him. He just couldn't understand why his son, who was at one time a star athlete at the Orange County school, hadn't taken the class.When Garden Grove was being planned, the Orange County schools were preparing to merge their high schools to form the Los Angeles Unified School District. Many parents wanted their children to attend Garden Grove High School, which is in Garden Grove. Some felt the LAUSD would not be as good for their children and did not wish to give up Orange County schools.In response, the Orange County board of education got together and decided that Garden Grove would become part of the new district. Garden Grove High School was renamed Garden Grove High School, and the rest, as they say, is his tory. As for Garden Grove High School, it is still the most popular district in the region.Garden Grove High School is one of the oldest districts in Orange County. It is known for its academics and for being accessible to everyone, especially those living in the surrounding communities. Tutoring is the only way that it would have ever been built, but it is truly the most important reason for the existence of the school.
