Parlance Passion & Process
Information is easy to come by. Knowledge resides in the nuance.
Academic expectations always seem to require students to dig deeper, find the connections between seemingly detached concepts, or relate to a topic with little to no apparent personalization. How and why is this asked of students when the skills to do so, the methods to achieve these deeper dives and personal connections across a diverse range of subjects, are often not taught or developed? Surely the personalization to individual students is a tall order for the classroom setting. One-on-one collaboration with Parlance Educators can fulfill this order, and Parlance is driven by a vision of enriching students’ education with the guidance that can help hone these skills.
Tests abound in grade school and college, but rarely if ever are there courses available in the standard curriculum and course load (not counting 3rd party providers or overloading) about how they’re constructed, how to break them down, and how to ace them. Students are simply expected to find their own way through the tests, complete them, and put them in the rearview despite knowing full well another similar experience isn’t too far down the road. They hold weight, yet they are not approached like the other usual subjects. What if students were taught strategic and widely applicable problem-solving skills? Parlance Educators wants to help students get something lasting and practical from every aspect of their educational experience. Parlance aims to teach students how tests are structured, how to strategize a suitable approach for each kind of question, and how to surmount them. We help you understand what tests truly assess and see their problems for the patterns they present.
Progress is made with the right procedures and sufficient practice. It’s not enough to only know what to do but not how to do it well. Nor does constantly practicing something with ineffective methods or without the appropriate analysis deliver results. Parlance Educators can help you put together a plan, follow it, adapt it, and even throw it away and draft a new one if something just isn’t working.
Widely applicable recipes for success are less about the particular ingredients and more about the questions and answers that lead you to incorporate them. Work with Parlance to craft the right questions, act on the answers effectively, and see the series of steps to success.
With academic tutoring, Parlance will find a way for the course material to make sense to you, to speak to you. We’ll consider the style of your instructor, too, in order to deliver work and results of a form that is suitable and satisfactory and then some.
With test preparation, Parlance will translate test structure, subject matter, and style into predictable patterns, a better understanding of content breadth and depth, and expectations you can exploit to improve your accuracy. Together, we’ll make connections across tests to illustrate the reliability of our methods. One-on-one collaboration puts you in the driver seat and the sole determinant of our direction.
With guidance on projects and presentations, Parlance is prepared to augment your approach with the wisdom of having worked through some iteration of your enterprise with leaders of their respective industries. At any point in the process, Parlance Educators will speak your language and help you turn angst into achievement.
Success is found through a series of steps
