Exhilarating and timely. Dr. Nelson-Royes has captured the essential outtakes of the tutoring process. She has compiled a volume which can be utilized in today's classrooms, higher educational setting, as well as corporate environments. Why Tutoring?: A Way to Achieve Success in School, offers a refreshing view of the future of tutoring in educational development while relating historical aspects of the process. Her book brilliantly illuminates characteristics of the process which will assist with a discussion beyond mere - why tutoring is needed - to a higher discussion of -when and how - to. This book is a much needed resource for both new educators and experienced administrators as they plan for the success of our students in schools across the world.

This book is a must read for all educators, parents, administrators, and other professionals who work with students, in particular, struggling students.

Nelson-Royes proves tutoring makes learners better students.
I totally agree with Dr. Nelson-Royes, tutoring is a viable strategy to provide supplementary instruction to increase educational yield, especially for students who require additional assistance for twenty-first century academic and lifelong success. Further as stated in the book 'research suggests that tutoring helps students become more organized, self-assured, and proficient at identifying relationships between ideas. The book provides comprehensive list of the core essentials for tutors in successful tutoring programs. It also discusses various "Best Practice Tutoring Programs". Why Tutoring?: A Way to Achieve Success in School is practically as well as theoretically well written. It is a must for both all those who are involved in tutoring and wish to get involved in tutoring in the near future. I am confident that the book will help teachers, as well as parents to achieve their goals in tutoring. I congratulate Dr. Andrea M. Nelson-Royes for her excellent contribution in the subject.
Dr. Nelson-Royes's book, Why Tutoring ?: A Way to Achieve Successin School is an essential framework for understanding how to use tutoring to build academic skills. While student demographics, academic standards, twenty-first-century skills, and cultural contexts are ever-changing; what remains constant is the need for continuous quality improvement. Nelson-Royes presents a compelling and comprehensive review of previous and current research to inform both individual tutoring programs and the field. Her focus on evaluation and research-based practices embodies the culture of continuous quality improvement, and it creates an invitation to embark on the journey toward high-quality tutoring.
